Color. Color. Color. I am...Oh my gosh, you know it. Color. Color. Color. I am so drawn to color and the wow factor! On your covers, it is those magical little stars that really set off everything else. The characters are great. It is not like some covers, where you think the illustrator never read the book. Your covers bring a smile as you open and close for the day. I have grabbed a book and ventured in due to the cover. I have also gone on word of mouth though...If you wrote a novel and published it in a brown paper bag, I'd go for it!!!!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18242704679080994803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443047332769568071.post-61740595740544109882015-06-25T20:11:33.408-04:002015-06-25T20:11:33.408-04:00No, I can't say I am a snob.

The two didn't go together and felt the author was focused on using a picture to hook in the reader. So, I usually base purchase on the combination of blurb, cover if it relates and the reviews. Reviews if they say more than, "I like this book," etc.<br />Ey Wadehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04410026742901835948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443047332769568071.post-77872789005649683042015-06-25T20:07:13.577-04:002015-06-25T20:07:13.577-04:00Thanks for sharing!!! xThanks for sharing!!! xTonya Kappeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14252788425268305047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5443047332769568071.post-74758219778341554782015-06-25T20:07:03.802-04:002015-06-25T20:07:03.802-04:00Oh...I do read the blurb.
