For any author who would like his/her book to be reviewed, contact me. Poetry books too are solicited for reviewing. However, there are some genres I tend to avoid. Feel free to ask me.

I must mention here that I read at my own pace and depending on my mood. Don't ask me to hurry.
It's Monday! What Are You Reading This Week? is a weekly event hosted by J. Kaye of J. Kaye's Book Blog, "to list the books completed last week, the books currently being read, and the books to be finish this week."

I've read good things about the one book you did get. Hope you enjoy it!
I'm a sucker for a good book cover.
Happy reading!

I'm not that into book covers.
Here is my musing
Here's what I'm reading
Generally, I don't buy a book by the cover but sometimes I'll see something that hits me and I'll get it.
The Lost Book of Salem sounds like a really good book. Hope you enjoy it.
Hope you have a great reading week. I enjoyed your review of Year of Wonders.
I didn't think of the font, but you're right, the font can play a part in my choosing too.
Combining two of your memes, I love the cover on The Lost Book of Salem. Much more appealing to me than the US cover.
I like the name and cover art much better on this copy compared to the Physick Book. Much more appealing.
In response to the Musing Mondays post, size is a big factor for me as well... I really don't like mass market paperback (I find it a little easier to read/hold the book open while doing something else/etc. when I'm reading a trade paperback).
I like the look of the cover of The Lost Book of Salem, but it wouldn't influence me to buy it.
Ooo, I really want to read The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane - can't wait to hear what you think of it.
I have the Texicans as well. Just haven't started it yet. Enjoy your new book.
I like the title of this one! Though the U.S. title is interesting as well. happy reading.
I'll usually pick up a book if it has a good cover. But i wont buy it solely based on that.
Although it is usually the cover that gets my attention first.
Happy reading !!
Book covers aren't a big deal for me. In Cold Blood - what a book! I found it quite chilling, but loved what Capote did with it.
BLASTED sounds good!
I never thought about the font....it hasn't bothered me yet.
yes, I agree that font is another issue.
I like that cover better than the U.S. one. Looking forward to your thoughts.

I read the K Howe book in a weekend, and reviewed it.. It was a very enjoyable read and I enjoyed learning some more to the Salem story. A Keeper!
Enjoy your reading this week!
I love the cover for The Lost Book of Salem. I hope you enjoy it!
