Autumn (autumnmemory80) | 374 comments Saw this game in another one of my groups and thought you would all enjoy!

We all know that sometimes the reason you pick up a book at the local bookstore has everything to do with the cover. (We might try to deny it, but I know I will do it!) It might because it looks retro, has beautiful artwork, is a little disturbing... who knows what intrigues us, but that glossy cover can make us instantly lust after the book alone.

The way you play this game is you start out with a book that has two different covers for different editions. The first person will select two covers and the person below will select the one they like best. Then they will offer up two covers for the same book and let the next person decide which they like best. Have fun everyone!
