Mandiann (goodreadscommandiann) | 6882 comments This week I challenge you to pick a book based solely on its cover. It should book a book you didn't know anything about prior to choosing (or adding to your TBR list), but one you decided you wanted to read simply because it had a beautiful cover.

Or pick a book with a cover you think is gorgeous.

Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments I have to agree with Kathy and say I'm going to read Mind Games (Mind Games, #1) by Kiersten White which I literally bought solely based on the cover; however, the title was also intriguing.

I also saw a book at the bookstore today that I might read IF I can remember the title of it. LOL I would need to get if from the library...hmmm...let me think! (Do you guys smell something burning? LOL)
