This Friday's question is:
Worst cover? What is the worst cover of a book that you've read and loved?
Heart of the Falcon by Suzanne Robinson
Those who know me well know I love anything ancient Egypt (I have an ankh necklace) so I was ecstatic when I discovered this book takes place in ancient Egypt. This is easily one of the ugliest covers I've ever seen, but I loved the book. It was recommended by a friend who loves anything Egyptian too, and it is such a good story and a steamy romance. Definitely adult though, but I wasn't complaining.
What's your worst cover?
Happy reading,
Courtney

ReplyDeleteI have to agree it's not a super enticing cover.
My FF

I didn't occur to me, but once you said it...very 90's. Seems like a lot of romance type books of that time period had that same visual style.
DeleteI'm not a fan of this cover either.
Old Follower. My FF
Yeah, you both were right. It was published my birth year, I think. 1990. lol
DeleteDef not an inspiring cover. The cover doesn't look very Egyptian either.

Yeah, I probably wouldn't have read it if my friend hadn't recommended it. :)
DeleteHaven't heard of that one, but the cover is kind of blah.

Thanks for stopping by! :)
DeleteOkay, so this is a plain cover. But I can't call it ugly. I guess when you compare it to other covers it's not all that exciting.. soo.. good choice :)
ReplyDeleteHere's my Follow Friday post.
Haha true. If anything, it's just very old. :)
DeleteI don't like it, I agree with you.
ReplyDeleteMy FF!

Thanks so much C.J.!
DeleteI'm not a big fan of the cover either! It's kind of strange and I'm not the biggest fan of pinkish colors!
