Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
• Grab your current read
• Open to a random page
• Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
• BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
• Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!
From pg. 15
I feel like everything inside me is vibrating with energy, in anticipation of what is to come. I am free.
Top Ten Covers I Wish I Could Redesign
They usually do fix the covers for the paperback versions of books thank goodness. I have seen some really bad covers that leaves me with no interest in reading the book, and I have read books where I picked up the book despite of the cover. Here are the top 10 worst covers I have seen.
I haven't actually read this one yet, it's sitting on my shelves. I am just so bored with it. There is a lot I don't like about it, and nothing on the cover is compelling.
Yawn. I don't like any of these covers for this one or the paperback. They are just boring.
Another book where the cover doesn't tell me anything about the book, and has left me with no interest in reading it. It has great reviews though, I just have o get beyond the cover.
This cover, and the cover for the first in the series suffer the big face problem. I hate books where all you have is a giant face.
Another horribly boring cover. I have no interest in the book because the cover is so boring.
I've actually read this series, and all the covers are just blah. There just isn't anything to them.
It's the colors on this book that leaves me completely uninterested. I hate the color combination.
One of my all time favorite books, withe a terrible cover. I love the new covers that are on the books. There is just a ton wrong with this one. I am embarrassed to read it in public.
Both the Bloodline series and the VA series have some seriously aweful covers. I dislike them all. It may have something to do with the big face issue I have.
Another series that I love where the covers suck. This is actually the best of the bunch. The rest are just horrible. It makes me sad, because you could do so many awesome things with these covers.
I have never seen several of these covers, but most of them are very boring. It is funny that you listed Anna and The French Kiss. I actually listed Isla because I liked the original covers better than the new ones. Bloodlines has been on my TBR list for a LONG time. The reason I probably haven't read it yet probably has a lot to do with the cover.

I almost added Anna to my list as well, but I love the new covers :D The first cover just didn't suit it well at all. Great list!
ReplyDeleteI totally won't read a book with a bad cover either :)
ReplyDeleteHere's my Teaser Tuesday Black and Blue by Gena Showalter
Mei @ Diary of a Fair Weather Diver
Great teaser! I really need to get my hands on Allegiant soon. Hope you're enjoying it!
ReplyDeleteHere's my teaser at Bookmunchies (:
You're right, I never realized how big the faces were on the VA books and Bloodlines! Still love reading them though! Seeing a lot of Anna today. And I have yet to read Jennifer's YA series but I have the first 4 in my TBR pile. I do kind of like this first one but mostly because of that little gargoyle in the corner! Weird, I know!
ReplyDeleteHere's my Tuesday Post
Have a GREAT day!

Some really awful covers you've picked! That cover of Glow is so unbelievably dull, much prefer the one I have. Also the UK cover of the Testing was a lot more interesting. Boring book covers are the worst, makes me not want to read the book. My TTT.
