Book Cover Weakness
So, I was recently scrolling through my Goodreads lists, doing a little New Years cyberspace housekeeping, when I noticed a recurring theme in the book covers on both my favorites shelf (202 and counting) and my to-read shelf (329 and counting). Particularly in regards to books I'd decided were omg-I've-gotta-read-that material even before I'd read

Ooh, yeah, you're right....I do really like dark backgrounds, because they just make the subject pop right off of the cover. It's actually really interesting to look at trends in book cover - for a wihle, there was this half-a-face thing going on, now it looks like the pretty dresses are 'in.' I have to say, I prefer the pretty dresses to half a persons face staring at me! XD
Oh, your sister knows you well! "The only thing stronger than fear is hope" - I think I need an icon that says that. And speaking of HG....Bookworm and I are both in an online literature class over the WInter break, and we had to read this short story which started out alot like 'The Hunger Games,' but that's not the best part. The best part is that now, we are having a big discussion about HG on our class!! It's totally awesome when your fandom life and your school life cross!!
The ninth season is waiting for us at the library....we took a break for CHristmas so we could watch our Christmas movies, but we're ready to find out waht happens next....Apparently Lois has been shipped into the past or the future using the Legion ring...Yikes! About Tess, originally I didn't like her - she was very cold and arrogant. Now that we;ve found out how Lex used her, I feel really sorry for her. I'm also really afraid for her when Lex comes out of whatever comatose state he's in...he's probably going to knock her off for turning on him.
