Dejavu book covers
I just came across one of these dejavu covers today.

Taking Liberties by Diana Norman (ISBN 9780425198155)

Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë (ISBN 9780553212587)
Sorry...I've resized them 3 times and they still post ginormous.
(And.....now they're too small.....)

They don't look ginormous on my end.

[quote=""Marian""]Wow. Just wow. I'm avoiding all discussion of that trashy book cover.

You should see the original versions of those two books. Then again, perhaps not
Seriously, I really try not to judge a book by its cover. Look at all those lurid ones older authors like Jean Plaidy has and they're anything but. I had a recent romance I read with an older cover that even fans of the older romance covers would hate. It was actually a very good, entertaining read. You just never know.

Heh, such is life. Speaking of those covers we were spotting more of them over at Goodreads the other day.Well, drat & damnation, now they're too small.
