BLACK FRIDAY EDITION






Book Blogger Hop




I don't really know what my favorite cover is.  There are many that strike me as fantastic. But then I don't see it and I forget it Later I will see another.  These days we are treated to a remarkable number of covers. They are all beautiful. Many bloggers have made note that this hardcover Jane Austen with seven stories in it has a gorgeously appointed classic cover. It does nothing to tell the tales—it is pure, pattern and decoration!
I will hopefully have time to work out, write some reviews and do the hop and follow.  Jenn at Crazy-for-Books is correct in her statement that there are more memes all the time. I wonder if the events would work well if the were somewhat more specialized in their list, maybe by genre. What Do You Think??? This cover is timeless and will be just as beautiful each time you look at it.

  1. Nice cover! I think my favorite is The Children of Odin - an old book of Norse mythology. I have the original leather bound.

  2. I have seen a few people point it out online. Well bound, a book is a work of art in many ways.

  3. Yes, I think specializing the memes by genre is a great idea. For the follows I try to search out and comment on the romance/erotica/urban fantasy blogs. (Sometimes I get lost in the 1000's of YA blogs. LOL!)

    Have a great weekend!

  7. Wonderful cover! A piece of art. I'm following you now. Thanks for the visit! I love your blog! I agree - some of these huge memes suggest leaving genre after your name, but not everyone does.....and I lick some Para....but not others so I often visit the blog anyways just to see if they read some of the same stuff I read....
