It's all about love on Valentine's Day. Love, attraction, lust, cravings. Like ... like how I feel in a book store!
Although some of these book covers are getting me down lately. All that gray and black. All those pictures of people with their heads out of the frame. I love color. Look at the incredible use of color in MATCHED by Ally Condie. I totally want to pick up this book just looking at it.
I also love gorgeous period dresses. I check out books if I like the dress on the cover; if I like the dress on the cover, I will always, always, always stop to read the blurb. I don't mind so much if someone's head is cut out of the frame if it's to show off a dress.
After looking at those covers, you may agree with me that clothes make the cover!

I agree -- gorgeous clothes on a cover totally draw me in! Every time I put SILVER PHOENIX face-out at my library, it gets checked out.
Cover Lover...haha, what a great title today!
