My daughter's test is to open a book at random, read a few lines, and see if she is interested. Any fool can write a good first page--but looking at a random page--that's a good test.Susan Adcoxhttp://grandparents.about.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529969472454786525.post-51028767179088494362011-05-28T02:14:19.725-06:002011-05-28T02:14:19.725-06:00mom, i really love the cover art. congrats!! your ...mom, i really love the cover art. congrats!! your book seems to register high marks on a great cover. your tips are so helpful, thanks for spelling them out. <br /><br />see you soon. xo.martahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15027406340527614561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529969472454786525.post-623764601169990952011-05-27T12:07:45.511-06:002011-05-27T12:07:45.511-06:00Buying books:

I'm excited to read it! Is the b&w cover a tip that it might be an epub, too? :)~Kristinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18206998657385911226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529969472454786525.post-65645754700914738232011-05-27T11:38:53.397-06:002011-05-27T11:38:53.397-06:00Squee!!

It is very well-designed and one I will be proud to have on my shelves in a few months. <br /><br />As a wanna-be designer I often discount a book when its cover is poorly conceived. Even if I eventually choose to read it, a purchase may depend on choosing one cover edition over. Having a beautiful or poignant cover enhances the entire reading experience for me. That is one of the main reasons that I struggle when reading ebooks - no cover to glance at every time I open, close, or pick up the book.audreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00760672655827610960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2529969472454786525.post-73511541528612439502011-05-27T07:43:41.781-06:002011-05-27T07:43:41.781-06:00Your book fits all the criteria.
