Book Blogger Hop #13 - Nov 26-28


Book Blogger HopThis is a weekly PARThosted by Jen at Crazy For Books. It's a chance to discover new blogs and to garner new readers for your blog as well. 

Thanks for visiting!
"What is your favorite book cover?"
A fav book cover? Can I say that this question stumped me a little?

Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl (Mass Market Paperback)A whole bunch of books I read are ebooks, and the cover doesn't get too much attention from me, I'm sorry to say. I do appreciate the posts bloggers I follow make on cover art, and fan covers!!
So after thinking for a LOONG time (3 minutes), I've come up with an old childhood friend of a cover -> The Dairy of Anne Frank, and this edition here is one I got from my grandmother! I'm sure there are newer covers, but I love this one. I remember spending time gazing at her face, and those expressive eyes, each time I read the book.

Come back Saturday for a new blogger spotlight!!
Hope you stay and check out a few posts, link back to your blog on comments.

  3. Just stopping by to say hi. There are so many good covers to choose from, but I did like Anne Frank though. Also, I liked your post about the top 10 US libraries. I really want to move to Chicago!
    Have a great weekend!

  8. I had this edition as well. It's so simple a cover & yet her sweet smiling face brings life to her already strong voice. Great choice!

  11. Just stopping by on the hop. I hadn't thought about the effects an e-reader would have appreciating jacket art. Does the Kindle not show the jackets, or is it just because they're in black & white? Do you think a different e-reader would be better for that in particular?

  17. What a great answer to the question! I have to admit, I've never read all of the Diary of a Young Girl, though I keep meaning to. I've always been drawn to covers of biographies and memoirs that really show the person in a great way. This one does that, definitely.
