CAN you judge a book by its cover?

Yep. If it has a pretty cover,  nice lettering in a font that I like, I’m more likely to pick it up and read it, or at least to skim the dust cover. In some cases, it is a fairly accurate judge of fantasy mysteries, the more magical the cover, or if the images actually relate to the title, then I know the book is going to be good, because the details that make it work–someone has already taken the time to figure it out.
