Judging Books by Their Cover

After my adventure browsing books before Christmas, I decided to ask one of my friends, Rae, to go to the bookstore with me last night to play the Book Covers Game. I wish I could have recorded it but I did take some pictures. Basically we went to the new fiction aisle and started discussing which books were catching our attention and why. Then we read first lines in the book and discusses how appetizing they were with a simple grade system of "in" or "out." We looked at about twenty books, so here are just a few and how our conversation went.







This may seem mean but I think it's a more accurate portrayal of what consumers do when browsing books. We don't have time to consume the whole meal, so we just nibble a little here and there.
