Every time I read an amazing book with a terrible cover, it makes me wonder how many other great books I might be missing out on. And yeah, I want more people to read the books, but I know it's less likely when the cover isn't good.<br /><br />I think I saw someone else complain about the UK version of Rituals as well, so apparently no one is happy with that one. And Love is Red def needs a new cover because just text?? I wouldn't have a clue what it's about either. I wouldn't think thriller/horror though.Kit @ Metaphors and Moonlighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10113986982046115579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-619089912491955920.post-22733125137809775442017-08-02T14:40:59.893-04:002017-08-02T14:40:59.893-04:00Great idea for a TTT.
