The blurb.

@708845 (Becky): Which is on the cover...

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Well, I tend to judge a book by the first page. If it interests me, then I read ahead; if it doesn't, I ditch it.

The 300 pages of text inside of it?

Usually I judge a book by it's first page. Also, one day at the library (years ago), I found a book with a naked man and woman on each other, showed it to my mom, told me it was bad considering the cover and I'm like "Are you judging a book by it's cover!?"

yea. probably the worst metaphor of all time

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Definitely by its inside flap, or by the content and that goes for the metaphor too... Just cuz a book looks good doesn't mean it will be and just cuz it looks a lil worn doesn't mean its bad. But it always takes a little effort to figure it out.
