Cover Song

In the spirit (read: plagiarism) of Foreword and BookLust, here’s a book cover I’m lovin’… this is one that always grabs my eye when I’ve seen it.

It’s probably something I will never read, but I think it’s a flawless cover.  Just by looking at it, you can determine not only the subject matter, but the attitude and humour of it as well.  And it makes you look twice, which, in a sea of bookshelf upon bookshelf at the store, is an enviable feat.

And it’s a pose no one in the world can actually do. It hurts just looking at that!

I dunno. I just tried it with my fingers, and I did a pretty good job. Mind you, it’s much easier with the OTHER finger for sure.

Plagarism is the most sincerest form of flattery, Johnny. And it’s a great cover, I agree.
