Cover Snark Cure

I am not having a good day. Actually I wasn't having a good evening yesterday and it has spilled over into today. I'm talking complete...mental...breakdown. I need to get a grip, I have that job interview tomorrow, and I'll be of no use if I walk in there completely out of my mind.

So I need cheering up, and what better way than to make fun of something that cannot defend itself?

I was looking over some book titles that I was going to add to my wishlist with my book trading group and wanted to double-check the other authors listed for an upcoming anthology. What I found was the cover:


Oh boy. Here's a tip guys: if you see a woman looking at you like this - RUN! Run like the wind! Seriously, this chick just creeps me out. First, her hair is all greasey. And that look? I think female praying mantis' get that look right before they bite the head off their male mate.

Creepy, creepy, creepy.

For more (and better) cover snark, why not visit Bam? I've added a link to her cover art snark blog over on my side bar.....

I've seen this cover, and it's AWFUL. The sad thing is that there was another version of the cover before this. I liked it better.

Sigh.

And um, she has no breasts...unless gravity has REALLY taken hold.

OMG - Nicole! Too funny!

I didn't even notice the whole "no breasts" thing. Insomnia sucks balls.

Nicole said...

Yup, no breasts. I mean, there's not even a hint of cleavage.

She looks like Cruella de Ville's evil (or is that redundant) younger sister.

Lordy lord. I thought Fabio covers might embarrass the average readers.
