Judge a book by its cover.
I’m an avid reader and have to admit that, being a designer, I choose at least 50% of my books by their covers. Not only have I discovered some great authors along the way, but some really talented designers as well. If you’re like me you’ll love Jack Cheng’s Judge a book by its cover. You assign a rating of up to 5 stars, click submit, and see how your cover rating compares with Amazon ratings based on reader satisfaction.

This was fun (although I only rated one cover the same as the corresponding Amazon rating!) Thanks for sharing!

October 27, 2008 at 6:33 pmI LOVE this idea. This is going to be addictive, I think. I wonder if I can apply this to any of my work in the publishing industry. (I wouldn’t call myself an avid reader either. Don’t tell my boss.)
