Judging the Book Covers

"Let's go to the bookstore!" 
When my 4 year old son, Paco invites me to Fully-Booked, I am always more than willing to take him.  I love going to the bookstore. Especially to Fully-Booked at Boni High.  Imagine 5 floors of solace;-)
I'm excited to browse through the bookshelves,
shamefully not for the newest titles, but really for the latest book cover designs.
Ah! The eye candy book covers...  Seeing them all on the shelf is a real feast for the eyes.  Single powerful images designed to  represent the inside pages.
Should the cover serve as a teaser? A synopsis?
I wonder if the covers make the sale?  I am guilty that I have bought some novels because of very captivating covers. The design, the photo, the font, the layout, the illustrations, the graphics, all the pretty details...
Such beautiful layouts!.... Ahhh... Such a geeky trip eh?

Let me share with you some very interesting cover designs.
