I love that ebooks have covers. But...I really don't think covers are "dead".

I use my e reader a lot too. It's handy to go to Goodreads and peruse my "to read" shelf where I can see all the covers. <br /><br />THis is not a complaint, just an observation. The blue print is kind of hard to read.Kayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10282803815704229945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604964110596941640.post-28353512461068132202012-06-18T15:09:52.368-05:002012-06-18T15:09:52.368-05:00I love a nice cover, even if I too rarely use them...I love a nice cover, even if I too rarely use them to pick a book anymore. Now reviews are usually how I make my choices.

However if a book has a really great cover it might make me pick it up.<br /><br />Have to say I don't do e-books. Still like the feel of a book in my hands. Also our library hasn't moved into supplying them due to the cut backs so this hasn't encouraged me to buy a Sony Reader or whatever.
