When I did get it, I liked it a lot.<br /><br />But then... the color and typography of the word "skin" does not really fit with the smooth elegance of her arm or with the author and byline. I think if it was NOT grunged out and was a cool color scheme, perhaps matching the blue rather than the red, it might work better for me. That would also help draw attention to the apple and keep the eye from skipping right out of the cover as anon above accurately describes.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14745547538571404846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8175053073870042983.post-81807011378579054402012-03-26T03:04:38.635-07:002012-03-26T03:04:38.635-07:00Apple--Eve.

I spend way too much time at first trying to figure out what it is, then I'm drawn left to right and out of there, even though the artist used red to try to draw me back in. Too much negative space. Not effective in popping the subject forward IMHO. I know the dark was to give a feel for suspense, but it's too much.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8175053073870042983.post-35395672537415942652012-03-25T21:16:49.521-07:002012-03-25T21:16:49.521-07:00Thanks, JJ and Eric.Thanks, JJ and Eric.PatriciaRosemoorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00025510914624972398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8175053073870042983.post-49498822221074081042012-03-25T21:04:41.337-07:002012-03-25T21:04:41.337-07:00Now this is a good strong cover.

The inclusion of "a thriller" on the cover is a strong clue about genre. The apple suggests Snowwhite (Snowhite?) and I wonder if the book might have 7 dwarfs in it. The title is intriguing. I like one-word titles anyway, and this one is special. I would definitely sample this book with a view to buying it.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04122270279975818113noreply@blogger.com
