The Cover Characteristic meme is hosted at Sugar and Snark. Here are the guidelines:
Each
week we will post a characteristic and choose 5 of our favorite covers
with that characteristic. If you want to join in and share your 5
favorite covers with the weeks particular characteristic, then just make
a post, grab the meme picture (or make your own) and leave your URL in
Linky (so we can visit).
You
don’t even need to participate, just stopping by and saying hi would be
great! Don’t forget to stop by the other participants!
Okay this week all I can say is WHOA! I had so many books that had pictures of books on the cover. So I tried my best to narrow it down to 10. Although some of them have multiple books on one number. I grouped together series and also I have one grouping of picture books. So here we go!
10. Picture books:

3. Thursday Next series by Jasper Fforde – you’d think all would have books on the cover, but only 4 of the 5 I’ve read do.

1. And my favorite of all is a book by my author friend, Michelle Sodaro. I’ll explain why after you see it.
So you’re probably thinking, where is the book? And this is kind of plain compared to the others. But what I like about it, is that as I read, I found out that this is the cover of the book that is the main part of the story, so I love that about it!
I’ll bet you could give me a ton more ideas for covers with books. And there are so many that I will see at the bookstore where I work that I haven’t read, or don’t know that I’ll ever read, so they didn’t get included.

I love books with books on the cover! I think the Nancy Drew cover might be my favorite. I love her covers.
She does have a cover with just about anything! 🙂
I lobe covers with books. If that doesn't make a Booknerd want to read, I don't know what will.
I know! We already get excited at the sight of a book, and then that's like double the excitement! 🙂
Yay for Nancy Drew! And I love that Jane Green cover!!!!
It's a good Jane Green book as well!
Oo nice picks! I think Book Ends is my favorite! 🙂
I do like that one too!
I like the Nancy Drew cover, and of course Weird Thing. 🙂
As a bookstore employee, the Weird Thing books are just like being at work!
Nice choices–that last one's an interesting play on the theme! 🙂
It is a really interesting play on the cover within the story itself.
I really love your covers! Thanks so much for stopping. 😀

Thanks for returning the stop!
I really want to read that Weird Things Customers Say in Bookshops one because it must be hilarious. I also want to read the Thursday Next ones since it's been recommended to me! I think The Sacred Lies of Minnow Bly is my favorite cover though.
It's pretty good. I really enjoyed the Thursday Next books, although I haven't been able to get into the last 2 that I haven't read yet. Not sure if it's been too long since I read the series, or what.
Different reads for different groups of people. I like your pics and I like how often you pull in a Nancy Drew book. 🙂

I have a pretty varied reading taste. And what's funny, is that the older I get, the more YA that I read. In high school I was reading pretty much all adult fiction.
Oh wow I love that there is a buffy book in there! Buffy is awesome!
Thanks for joining in last week 🙂

I am a huge Buffy fan! So when I can add one of those books in, I do! 🙂 Thanks for hosting again!
