Q: Have you ever looked at book’s cover and thought, This is going to horrible? But, was instead pleasantly surprised? Show us the cover and tell us about the book.

When I read the synopsis I was on the fence and thought it was going to have no substance but I was surprised there was some depth.

TGIF is a weekly meme hosted by Ginger at GReads! Each week, Ginger asks a question for her followers to answer and link up. It’s also a chance to provide a re-cap of the past week’s posts. It’s a great way for bloggers to get to know one another a little more.

 

Q:Promote An Author: Is there a particular author you wish got more recognition? Pick one author & tell us why we should read their work.

A: Jasmine Richards is a new author she wrote The Book of Wonders it was a nice read and at the end I wanted  more. Though she’s a debut author  I can’t wait to see what she’s capable of. Right now a diamond in the rough  there isn’t much body of her work  to make comparisons to. The world she created in The Book of Wonders of djinn, ogres, monsters,sorceress, and the conflict brought on by magic being banded. It’s refreshing to see a new spin on an old tale at the moment the trend in YA is shifting from one gimmick to another. So for me the  originality of the plot pulled me in not to mention the beautiful cover art. Seeing an author at the beginning of their career is exciting.  I can’t wait for book 2 in the series to come out and see what new characters,worlds, and adventure our heroes get into. Hope that answers the question.

 

 

Just a girl mad about books and loves to talk about them. I read, and blog about books. I also review books on YouTube, I watch a lot of Youtube videos. I'm obsessed with HGTV design make over shows. Fan of Dr Who and so many other tidbits that make me, me.

  2. Hopping through. I hate when a cover makes a book seem like it will be too flighty.

  3. Yeah, this doesn’t look like the sort of book I’d read anyway. I’m more of a supernatural girl, but I totally understand why you would have hesitated. Anyway, new follower to the blog tonight, here’s mine http://kristyberridge.blogspot.com.au/

    Hmm, the FF cover you featured looks interesting. It’s the title that makes me think the story would be shallow. Haven’t read it yet.

    Here’s my #FF .

  9. _yay_ says:

    I think the cover sends a clear message that apparently doesn’t fit the content. Cover (cheesy, not very meaningful, lacking in depth…maybe FUN on a more positive note).
    Happy Friday

    Haven’t heard of either of these! But I do like it when a book takes you by surprise when the cover was kind of blah!
