They say you can never have a second chance to make a good first impression. A book’s cover does just that – gives a first impression. A good cover can make a reader pick up a book. A bad cover can leave the book at the very bottom of a dusty pile.
The covers of novels entice the reader to enter a different world. Covers are, after all, the way the publisher ‘hooks‘ the reader into choosing one book over countless others.
For my 103rd Cover Love post, I want to share some books that I’ve found with plates on their covers. Interestingly enough, many of these plates are broken… the most cleverly broken plate in my opinion is Tamar Cohen’s “The Fallout” which is broken in the shape of a house. Also note that there are duplicate cover graphics among these titles. Can you spot the duplicate?
Have you read any of these titles?
Don’t forget to check out any of the other previous 102 installments of Cover Love, many of which have been updated since they were first published.

Who would have thought, plates. I actually have several of these on my TBR, but never realized there were that many. I would have thought recipe books and maybe cozy mysteries, but lots of thrillers here. Great choice Lynne.

Yes there are many thrillers among these Carla. An unlikely though effective cover choice for that genre. Thanks 😊
