... Judging a Book by its Cover

Once, in spite of what they say, I spent a whole summer judging books by their covers.

I walked up and down the aisles of Barnes and Noble and chose to only read books with covers that caught my eye.

And you know what?

I read some really great books that summer.

I always judge a book by it's cover... how else? Love the one with the red shoes!

Was "Girl With a Pearl Earring" good? I think I watched the beginning of the movie and was bored...which is hard to believe since Colin Firth was in it! What's the shoe book?

Girl with a Pearl Earring with a good. The movie was dull.

The other book is Balzac and The Chinese Seamstress. Which, oddly enough, I just read in the Times this week that the author is coming out with a new book.
