Reflection 5

Boring book covers make people not want to read their books. I am one of the people who will pick up a book based on the cover then check out what it’s about.  If a book has a boring or stupid cover I will most likely not want to read it, or it will strongly effect how I read the book. For instance when we had to read Grendel for class the first thing I noticed was the dumb cover. It was a dark brown cover with weird print. After seeing the cover I really did not want to read it but because of school I had to. This made me go into reading Grendel with a bad attitude, which in return made me hate the book the entire time reading it. I like covers that are intriguing and that draw your eye. A good book cover will certainly make me pick up the book and take a look to see if it is worth reading. I really like the book cover for my book number one, The Legend of Bagger Vance. It drew my eye because it was a golfer in the mystical darkness with a light focused on his swing. Itdrew my eye and made me want to read it.
