The Hop and FF: Bienvenido a Readerbuzz!




Bienvenido a Readerbuzz!


I am Debnance.

I love to read.

I especially love travel memoirs,
children's books, books about happiness,
creative nonfiction, and literary fiction.

I'd love to visit your blog.
If you like, follow me and leave a comment
and I will hop over and follow you.

I also invite you to:
Befriend me at Goodreads.
Follow me at Twitter.
Befriend me at Facebook.

And, the question of the week from the Hop is:
Do you judge a book by its cover?

And my response:

Yes.
I feel horrible admitting to this, but I do.
I judge a book by its cover.

How about you?
Do you judge a book by its cover?

Thank you to Sarah from Sarah Reads Too Much for this question.

    It's very nice that we are already following each other. I'm back into the groove after a long holiday and complicated return. Hope to comment more for you have a lovely blog.

    I can't say that I judge a book by its cover. I can say that I'm influenced by the book's setting.

    No, I don't typically judge books by their covers. Recently, a lot of my books are read on a ereader, so I really purchase books for content. If I see an interesting looking book, I will pick it up though to see what it's about. If it sounds like I'll like it, then I might go furthers.

    Hopping by....

    I think most of us do judge books by their covers even if just a little. Kills us to admit it though!

    If I haven't heard of the book I will definitely judge it by it's cover, but I won't let a cover turn me off a book I already want to read.

    Happy Friday!

    Stopping by via the hop...I think it depends - there's a place and time when book covers come into play as to if I will read the book.

    Happy Friday!

    Thanks a lot for visiting earlier! I don't really judge a book's content by its cover, but the cover is the thing that first draws me to the book. So I'm more likely to read books that have nice covers, I guess!

    I'm not completely sure how I missed following you when you followed me... wires had to get crossed somewhere but anyhow, I've fixed that problem. Thanks for stopping by my blog and leaving such a sweet post.

    I was looking at your top ten heroines posts and laughed to see Scarlett on there after such a mix of children book heroines. It was too funny.

    Have an awesome weekend!

    I don't think anyone of us need feel terrible about judging a book by its cover. It seems almost everyone's doing it. LOL.

    Oh I do to :) But really just in book stores or the library, because it's the first impression you have of the book. If I know what the book is about and it sounds interesting, I don't care about the cover.

    Thanks for stopping by...it seems quite a few people do judge a book by its cover....i wonder if thats because covers look so good or do covers look good because we pay so much attention to them?!
