should you judge a book by its cover? if you judge a book by its cover and the book is as good or bad as the cover are you correct or was it a coincidence?

That’s a great cover. The painting, the lettering, the title. Pure kino.

THE COVER IS PART OF THE OPVS, THEREFORE, THE COVER SHOULD BE A FACTOR IN ONE'S JUDGEMENT OF THE OPVS; ONE SHOULD JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER, BUT NOT ONLY BY ITS COVER.

I love that cover but after reading it I think I might prefer the original, the woman on the chair

If I shouldn't judge a book by its cover, why do book cover artists make $50k/year?

Fuck, that’s more than what I make.

I'm only going to read the book for a couple hours but I'm going to have to look at it on my shelf for years. Therefore the cover is more important.
