David Staniforth Voted. Found this vote quite easy, as one of them really jumped out for me.


message 2: by Gary (new)

Gary Haynes Simple but brilliant!


message 3: by Verditwist (new)

Verditwist Not to mention the horror of the disappearing bookshops. I said...


message 4: by Stuart (new)

Stuart Aken One or two illustrations of how not to write a blurb. But most quite intriguing.


message 5: by Rosanne (new)

Rosanne I agree, Stuart - some were rather poor. But I enjoyed the good ones.


message 6: by [deleted user] (new)

The proof is in the reading. We will see how well the blurbs match the books.

Good fun though.


message 7: by Debra (new)

Debra Benson I had to choose between three. I had to re-read them to come to my choice. I like the short but vivid. I voted.


message 8: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Kennedy Torn between two, but happy with my final choice!


message 9: by Paul (new)

Paul I'm with David on this one!

Colin Chesney This hooked me right away.


message 19: by Michelle (new)
