Can you judge a book by a cover? Do covers even matter in our increasingly digital world?
I hope covers always will count. And I do like the ones that Random House has created for my books over the years.
Behold a preview of the cover of my next novel, THE NIGHT STRANGERS. It arrives in bookstores, libraries, and on digital readers on October 4. To preorder the novel — “Be the first on your block!” — click here.
Stay tuned!
OOOOHHHH, a new book! I can’t wait! As a artist/designer, I HOPE covers still matter. Because people (like me) still love the feel of the pages in their hands, I do think that book covers have a more promising future than album covers (which I also love). I do have to say though, I am the type that does take the dust jacket off the book WHILE I am reading it because I find them to get in the way.
I hope book covers always matter, and I think they did a great job on yours! Can’t wait ’til it comes out. I’m going to buy it at a local store.
The book cover gets me, the book cover has to be intriguing, then I open the book flap to read the synopsis. I always wondered the process of the covers picked. I always wonder if I am the only one that picks” books by it’s cover”. What do readers pick, the cover or story?
Covers are very important to me; this one is awesome. I am about 1/3 of the way through of your new book (ARC) and enjoying it very much. (I’ve read all of your books).
