There's two different questions this week. I stuck with the one I liked the cover, but not the book.


Q: 
Best cover? What is the best cover of a book that you've read and didn't like?





I like some of Holly Black's other books and I really wanted to like Tithe, but the story just wasn't holding my interest. I remember sticking it out to something like page 150 and finally giving up.

  1. Hi, Cherie! Newest follower here :)
    I love Holly Black, when she's not writing about Faerie. Curse Workers was a favorite of mine. This, not so much. My FF is here http://fictionflaire.blogspot.in/2012/08/follow-friday.html

  5. Haven't read this book, but I do like the cover. The butterfly is gorgeous and the title font gives me a creepy feel. Too bad the story wasn't up to par.

    1. It was the font for the title and butterfly that made my pick up this book.
