This week's question
Are you more likely to choose to read a book based on the synopsis, or the cover?
My answer
I always see the cover first and that is what draws me in. But then I do read the synopsis and that will let me decide if I want to read it or not. The cover has an influence but is not the final decision.
Author is as important for me but a really good cover will increase the chance of me reading the blurb but it won't make a difference to if I read the book or not. Mind you I mainly read e-books so I rarely look at covers now!
ReplyDeleteI love a good cover too! I still look at the covers online for e-books too!
DeleteLove seeing your perspective on this question. Covers are a big draw for me though, sometimes I just jump into the book without reading the synopsis. Although not always, the blurb sometimes is what convinces me over a cover especially if the cover isn't that well done.
ReplyDeleteI always read the synopsis before I read a book. The cover is usually what draws me in first though.
DeleteTotally makes sense - I often get a blurb in an email for review without ever seeing the cover, and I'm good with that, but you're right a cover is important when blind searching
ReplyDeleteI agree, but sometimes I like to look at the cover just because. :)
