To shop intelligently doesn't mean simply shopping for price. It has to do with being able to tell quality from not, whether in the workmanship of your formal dresses, or in the richness of their fabric.shop prom dresseshttp://www.promrunway.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6131409629757210790.post-71937270079635920132011-06-30T13:37:14.115-07:002011-06-30T13:37:14.115-07:00I love the cover.

Right off the top of my head, I love the PARANORMALCY and SUPERNATURALLY covers. I also love the MATCHED and CROSSED covers.

I had to think about it. :)<br /><br />I really like the covers for Heist Society and Uncommon Criminals. I like them because of the girl on the cover. She kind of reminds me of Rachel Leigh Cook. But, I like them mostly because I love how the "heist" in the book is shown in the girl's sunglasses.Jenni Elysehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08403700912436098391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6131409629757210790.post-20690904658437086492011-06-27T10:32:08.776-07:002011-06-27T10:32:08.776-07:00Love the cover, love the changes to the blog.

Everyone had wonderful things to say about it. I'm sure it was a relief to get a cover you love so much. After all the blood, sweat and tears that goes into getting a published novel it would be tragic to have a cover you hated.<br /><br />I tend to like covers with less photography, more interesting design and typography like SISTERS RED or BEAUTIFUL DARKNESS.<br /><br />I like the deep, pomegranate red! It looks good on you (and your blog). I hope there are pomegranates in your book.Rachel+Cohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01932780419139715504noreply@blogger.com
