I like to pick up a book, read the jacket & decide if I think I will enjoy it or not. So yes, I DO judge a book by its cover. And I've gotten over finishing a book just because I started it. It doesn't happen often, but if I'm not into it after the first couple of chapters, forget it. Why waste my time?

I've had a dry spell on reading lately. Haven't found anything that I really like. I have a book from the library called "The Trees of Eden" right now, but I can't seem to get into it.

I'm the same way - if I don't get into it then it's out - although I couldn't get into Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil at first -and it ended up being one of my favorite books!!

Still - I also judge books by their covers lol...I used to go into this old used bookstore and randomly select books based on their covers - I found some interesting reads that way

Now though - my selection process is a tad more refined...

And I, too, know people who don't read anything at all - which I could never do - my life seems incomplete if I'm not reading something - I mean right now I'm reading the Little House Books...but at least I'm reading

AND - I just got two free books at work, Founding Mothers - by Cokie Roberts and The Orientalist by Ton Reiss
