What a shocker!!

I had a funny one of Georgette Heyer's books - the couple pictured on the cover were not the main H/h but one of the minor 'sticks in the wheel'...
- Sandra kindly uploaded it for me :)

[Lindsey]

I am in! but I'm having a really hard time choosing just one...
If I could find a Mysterious man in uniform drinking from a woman in period dress while she clings to another man that would be a must buy!!! however since I must choose just one this month I will go for...b. Dark Mysterious character biting someone's neck or hiding in the darkness I seem to be binging on Paranormals recently...

[Dee]

that book goes for huge money now though because the cover is soo butt ugly...haha!

[Elke]

I am in!!! My choice is "C" period dress!

[Stormy]

I'm in and I'll go with Option D, even though Option B is a very close, almost imperceptible second.

[Anna]

I am in! I will go with option B.

[SandyC]

I am a moody reader....but if I have to choose one...
I'm in for Option C. Thanks!

[Emily May]

I'm in! I tend to try my best not to judge by the cover... still, think I'd have to go for A.

[Pollyanna]

I'm in I would got for option B, love my paranormal romance :)

[Debbie]

oh, I almost missed this one.
All of the above :p
I like a cover to look good, but if I have to choose....
B or D ok, fine B

[Laura]

Count me in!

If I had to choose, I would go with B.

[Suzanne]

I'm in and I'm definately an Option B (Dark mysterious character biting someone's neck or hiding in the darkness)!

[Diane ~Firefly~]

I'm in and option B.

[Amanda]

That man's face is rather unfortunate.

[Ashley♥Alexis]

Sign me up!

I'm sad I can only pick one. It's a toss between Option B and D. Hmmm I guess I'm going to go with option D.

[[deleted user]]

signing up and picking B.

[Polina]

I'm in!

Covers rarely influence me when I choose books. From this options I'd choose D.

[Tiffanny]

Usually I like simple covers that aren't overly harlequin-esque. I'm more of an A or D reader. I like paranormal romance but not so much vampires and werewolves, more of the different creatures that can also be paranormal. I like pretty much anything for erotica romance as well. More the military theme I like stuff along the lines of the nauti series or renegade/maverick/live wire series

[Heather]

I'm in too.
I tend to be more drawn to abstract or nature related covers. For this challenge though, I'm probably more in line with A (Man in Uniform).

Which one would you like Tiffanny - A or D?

[Sarah]

I'm in, option B :)

[Sue]

I'm in. While I like paranormal romances, if I'm choosing by a cover I'm more influenced by choice A, a man in a uniform!

[~Sara~]

I'm in and judging from my bookcase I'd say c, a woman in period dress (although my e-reader is much more d since they're harder to find in paper format!).

[Ari]

I'll be partaking...Uh c.

[moulin]

I am in. Medieval swordplay with hard bodied mages that turn into dragons and evil lurking in a corner seems to combine a, b, and c. I guess I'll go with c.

[Shellbelle]

I'm in, and I won't lie and say that certain covers don't attract me, but I try not to let it influence me one way or another.LOL And I guess I will go with Option B, the neck biting, mystery person one!

[[deleted user]]

I'm an A, but I would never read a book for the cover!

[[deleted user]]

I'm in! Option C sounds about right!

[Pam]

I'm in and I'm a C. A cover will attract me but not necessarily turn me away--I do enjoy a man with a nice chest though.

Tiffanny, I've just updated the list so I've put you down as a D.

[Tuğçe]

Oh! I was almost missing this... I was on a vacation and didn't have much chance to log in. Anyway I am definitely in! and period dress and two guys and a girl are both influences so can't decide which would do better... Just choose for me and write me in one of them and save me please Tania :)

[Katherine]

Cover's don't sway me much, but I will pick B.

[Macwolf01 [Elise]]

I'm in, I'm A or B but if I have to say which I choose more often lately its B but if you're short on names in A that's excellent with me too

THX E

[Autumn]

Can i still sign on?? !!!

if so, im an A . I love creative covers... and hunks count in too! :P

covers are definitely catches my eye, but does not always make justice to the book.


thank you Tania. :)

[[deleted user]]

Yay my first challenge, I'll join! I'm have to go for B even though it seem like I've been drowning in the paranormal lately. As for covers, I can be attracted to flashy ones but it's the book summary that holds the final judgment. I learned the hard way...sigh.

[Tania]

Omg! I'm so glad I double-checked on this....could've sworn I'd signed up already!! Count me in and I'll be an A.

yeah, excited here !

btw Tania, it's only Debbie (dropped the ~ )

[Stormy]

I'm worried that I got missed. I originally opted in as message 58, but don't see my name under the sign ups...but folks after me are noted there. I'm still a D and would like to participate.

[Fran, Moderator]

Can't wait Tania! Thanks for hosting :)

Thanks for that Kerste - I go through and do a recheck prior to putting up the picks so I would have picked yours up - but it makes heaps easier if people point it out early.

[Tania]

ONLY 3 hours till signups close

Now where did I put that PIFM-randomisation-generator....

[Tania]

SIGN UPS ARE CLOSED, PICKS ARE DONE, RULES ARE UP

HAVE FUN!!!!!!!

(off to do my picks now - best part of the month)

[D.G.]

LOL, Tania!

It's very early here in the US so I was going back to bed...I just didn't realize that the picks were posted! Off to check the front...no way can I go back to sleep now. :)

[D.G.]

Oh I'm picking for Caroline again! Let me see what I chose for her in the past so I don't recommend the same books. :)
