from the female cover poses it was pose 3 I was trying to describe. I wonder who decides that these poses are a good idea?
I often think it's odd how in successive editions they change the covers, as if they've decided they need to appeal to a new audience or they've gone off the original artistic vision. I get confused about some books and can't remember if I've read them or not.
The Terry Pratchett and JK Rowling 'grown ups' covers seem a bit insulting to original readers, or is that just me? I really don't think I've ever bought a book on the strength the cover, although I avoid pink girlie covers in the library, how about you?
