Ashamed of what you are reading

[Nesacat]

What I want to know is who does the covers for these romance novels. All those lurid colours and clothes doing the most impossible things independent of the bodies wearing them. I've had several people (men) complain that the covers are totally misleading because more often than not the content of the book is not half as 'hot' as the cover would seem to imply.

Am rather fond of getting onto public modes of transport with romance novels that have particularly lurid covers. It's interesting to watch the faces of those around.

Weirwood ... have gone up and asked people what they are reading too; especially when they've been inconsiderate enough to hold their book in such a way as to make it impossible for me to figure it our by myself. Have picked up several good books that way.

Making fun of you for reading Game of Thrones? It's agreat book! It's so action-packed and gritty! (and really steamy in some parts)

I read children's books once in a while, they make for nice, light reading.

I think I would pick the adult cover rather than the children's cover. Not because I'm ashamed, I'm just guessing that the adult cover looks cooler. I've read the harry potter books with the children's covers, and the covers are lame.

I'm just guessing about the adult covers being cooler though, I haven't seen them.
