I would cheat. callandor1000 Send a noteboard - 18/06/2010 05:37:29 PM
I'd open it up and read like 5 pages.

Your mom. That's right. The cat is out of the bag. Your mom.

Titles or covers? Camilla - 18/06/2010 02:15:56 PM 993 Views
Title I guess random thoughts - 18/06/2010 02:29:14 PM 752 Views
More the cover. nossy - 18/06/2010 03:07:29 PM 753 Views
Probably title Myrdhyn - 18/06/2010 03:15:11 PM 683 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 330 Views
Why don't you people want to play? Camilla - 18/06/2010 04:19:21 PM 742 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 690 Views
That is not a fair comparison Camilla - 18/06/2010 04:54:33 PM 689 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 734 Views
Camilla - 18/06/2010 11:00:41 PM 769 Views
Stop spelling it wrong! Rebekah - 18/06/2010 11:15:29 PM 747 Views
I'm sorry. I don't often have reason to spell it. Camilla - 18/06/2010 11:16:42 PM 696 Views
Re: I'm sorry. I don't often have reason to spell it. Rebekah - 18/06/2010 11:20:31 PM 760 Views
Well, in that case - titles. *NM* Tom - 20/06/2010 02:07:19 PM 322 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 798 Views
Very rarely, and only in the library if that. Legolas - 18/06/2010 05:54:48 PM 712 Views
I found one of my favorite writers that way random thoughts - 18/06/2010 06:12:00 PM 755 Views
I agree. That was how I got hooked on fantasy. Sort of. Tashmere - 18/06/2010 11:21:41 PM 722 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 683 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 721 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 714 Views
Agreed. *NM* Camilla - 18/06/2010 11:25:10 PM 312 Views

Neither. I own too many books. Tom - 18/06/2010 04:52:30 PM 711 Views
I would cheat. callandor1000 - 18/06/2010 05:37:29 PM 770 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 701 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 683 Views
But I buy Playboy for the articles! *NM* Larry - 18/06/2010 08:02:52 PM 344 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 776 Views
Neither would be the determinant factor for me... DomA - 18/06/2010 08:20:37 PM 803 Views

Why? *NM* Jacob - 21/06/2010 05:19:20 PM 348 Views
Because Camilla - 21/06/2010 05:20:26 PM 724 Views

With nothing else to go on I'd say Title. *NM* j-whitt987 - 18/06/2010 10:27:24 PM 299 Views
Cover aria - 19/06/2010 12:30:44 AM 763 Views
Covers are there to stop you from buying books, if they are ugly. jh - 19/06/2010 05:34:22 AM 774 Views
Cover, I suppose. That's what grabbed me for Hyperion and Otherland. *NM* Craig - 19/06/2010 08:50:38 PM 495 Views
Fantasy books have notoriously bad covers. ajah - 20/06/2010 07:51:31 AM 699 Views
What about opening sentence or paragraph? Why isn't that an option? *NM* Tim - 20/06/2010 01:50:59 PM 312 Views
Because it is my survey Camilla - 20/06/2010 01:52:39 PM 722 Views
