Would You Read Me? Don't Judge a Book By It's Cover (2)

Last week's book was... For Darkness Shows the Stars

For Darkness Shows the Stars
by Diana Peterfreund
Hardcover, 384 pages
Expected publication: June 12th 2012
by Balzer + Bray

It is a jaw dropping cover, very a la Across the Universe. I specially like the font, and how the colors come together.

So, here is how it went:

-11- said "hell's yeah I'll read it!"
-8- said "Maybe..."
-6- "Nah, not my style/ Nah"

After seeing the cover, how many of your minds have changed?

On to the next one then!

Let's play another little game shall we? I am going to give you guys a summary of a book that may or may not sound good (you be the judge) but I am not going to give you an image to accompany the book. This way we can find out if you would read it or not even if the image of the book sucks a lot.

There’s something strange and deadly loose in Philadelphia…  
Eleanor Fitt has a lot to worry about. Her brother has gone missing, her family has fallen on hard times, and her mother is determined to marry her off to any rich young man who walks by. But this is nothing compared to what she’s just read in the newspaper— 
The Dead are rising in Philadelphia. 
And then, in a frightening attack, a zombie delivers a letter to Eleanor…from her brother. 
Whoever is controlling the Dead army has taken her brother as well. If Eleanor is going to find him, she’ll have to venture into the lab of the notorious Spirit-Hunters, who protect the city from supernatural forces. But as Eleanor spends more time with the Spirit-Hunters, including their maddeningly stubborn yet handsome inventor, Daniel, the situation becomes dire. And now, not only is her reputation on the line, but her very life may hang in the balance.
 So, now, all you have to do is say if you would read it or not!
(Yes or no will suffice if you don't wanna write a lot)

Next Wednesday I will post a new summary with no image,
I will also post the cover and book information of this week.

PS; If you know the name, image or whatever of this book do not say anything. Don't give any sort of information away please.
