Why don't you people want to play? Camilla Send a noteboard - 18/06/2010 04:19:21 PM
You need to accept the premise of desperation (because you have left your book at home, and there are no viable options, and you can't really just sit and stare at nothing, or you could, but that gets old) and no viable options.

Titles or covers? Camilla - 18/06/2010 02:15:56 PM 878 Views
Title I guess random thoughts - 18/06/2010 02:29:14 PM 641 Views
More the cover. nossy - 18/06/2010 03:07:29 PM 637 Views
Probably title Myrdhyn - 18/06/2010 03:15:11 PM 582 Views

Title if I had to choose, but unlikely I'd get an unheard-of book without a blurb. *NM* Legolas - 18/06/2010 04:17:23 PM 283 Views

Okay, so the Martians come down and make you pick between McDonald's and Burger King. Tom - 18/06/2010 04:53:26 PM 591 Views
That is not a fair comparison Camilla - 18/06/2010 04:54:33 PM 566 Views
Yes it is. And you didn't answer my question. Why won't you just play the game? Tom - 18/06/2010 10:57:24 PM 630 Views
Camilla - 18/06/2010 11:00:41 PM 659 Views
Stop spelling it wrong! Rebekah - 18/06/2010 11:15:29 PM 639 Views
I'm sorry. I don't often have reason to spell it. Camilla - 18/06/2010 11:16:42 PM 594 Views
Re: I'm sorry. I don't often have reason to spell it. Rebekah - 18/06/2010 11:20:31 PM 654 Views
Well, in that case - titles. *NM* Tom - 20/06/2010 02:07:19 PM 278 Views
really you just never pick up a book ans say "what the hell I will read this one" random thoughts - 18/06/2010 05:49:05 PM 690 Views
Very rarely, and only in the library if that. Legolas - 18/06/2010 05:54:48 PM 607 Views
I found one of my favorite writers that way random thoughts - 18/06/2010 06:12:00 PM 636 Views
I agree. That was how I got hooked on fantasy. Sort of. Tashmere - 18/06/2010 11:21:41 PM 608 Views
Maybe the scenario is hard to imagine but I have picked up some treasures by title alone. Tashmere - 18/06/2010 11:16:17 PM 568 Views
Re: Maybe the scenario is hard to imagine but I have picked up some treasures by title alone. Camilla - 18/06/2010 11:17:52 PM 602 Views
No they don't. I have lost on several gambles. But I have had enough success that I keep trying. Tashmere - 18/06/2010 11:24:09 PM 617 Views
Agreed. *NM* Camilla - 18/06/2010 11:25:10 PM 269 Views

Neither. I own too many books. Tom - 18/06/2010 04:52:30 PM 603 Views
I would cheat. callandor1000 - 18/06/2010 05:37:29 PM 649 Views
Huh. I suppose, since I have to choose, I'd go for cover. At least it would look pretty. Rebekah - 18/06/2010 05:56:43 PM 598 Views
I was noticing when I went to the public book sale that I am a title person. Tashmere - 18/06/2010 07:56:13 PM 587 Views
But I buy Playboy for the articles! *NM* Larry - 18/06/2010 08:02:52 PM 294 Views
Hmm, that's a toughy. It's really a toss of the dice; could go either way. I'd go with cover... lord-of-shadow - 18/06/2010 08:08:00 PM 662 Views
Neither would be the determinant factor for me... DomA - 18/06/2010 08:20:37 PM 680 Views

Why? *NM* Jacob - 21/06/2010 05:19:20 PM 304 Views
Because Camilla - 21/06/2010 05:20:26 PM 621 Views

Re: Author of a vastly Camilla - 22/06/2010 12:15:06 AM 692 Views
With nothing else to go on I'd say Title. *NM* j-whitt987 - 18/06/2010 10:27:24 PM 256 Views
Cover aria - 19/06/2010 12:30:44 AM 650 Views
Covers are there to stop you from buying books, if they are ugly. jh - 19/06/2010 05:34:22 AM 651 Views
Cover, I suppose. That's what grabbed me for Hyperion and Otherland. *NM* Craig - 19/06/2010 08:50:38 PM 435 Views
Fantasy books have notoriously bad covers. ajah - 20/06/2010 07:51:31 AM 583 Views
What about opening sentence or paragraph? Why isn't that an option? *NM* Tim - 20/06/2010 01:50:59 PM 267 Views
Because it is my survey Camilla - 20/06/2010 01:52:39 PM 622 Views
