The World of Blogging - Part 3

Book Blogger Hop

Well, another Thanksgiving and in spite of all the warnings from previous years, we have once again gorged ourselves on food.  Quite literally, a neon indigo-ish mixture of blueberry cheesecake and green bean casserole is oozing out our pores (that was pretty discussing, sorry).  Seriously, even getting out of bed is going to present a considerable challenge today.  Our Hope is that we’ll be able to burn off some of those extra calories during this week’s HOP!
This week’s question is: What is your favorite book cover?

This is such a good question because there are so many good covers out there.  If we (Evan) were forced into making a hasty decision it would have to be The Hobbit. 
The Hobbit: Or There and Back Again

Not very original or thought provoking but there you have it.  If you’ll excuse us now, we’re going to go and lovingly hold the copy on our bookshelves…
As always, thanks to Jennifer over at Crazy-For-Books for hosting the book party!

Also, we’re particularly fond of followers on this blog… give us try and we will be sure to return the favor!

    Hopping by to return the visit and follow! I love all covers of the Hobbit, including this weird 70's one with an emu on the cover...the Hobbit just improves all art. :-)

    hi from the Hop.

    Interesting cover you picked. Original and I haven't seen it before. I have the old black cover LOTR set. (With The Hobbit).

    HI Hopping around - new follower. I love your logo. I know the feeling. I am old enough to drive an oldsmobile. Thank goodness they stopped making them!
    Stop on by! The name pretty much discloses my genre preferences. And the is a gorgeous woodcut cover.

    That is one of the nicest Hobbit covers. My favorite cover dates back to 1987. Stop by to see what it is. Happy Blog Hop.

    Hi,
    Just hopping by and following through. A nice cover choice, I have an original copy of The Hobbit and the cover is falling off the poor thing.

    Wow, that is a cover of the Hobbit that didn't make it to India! How awesome to discover a new cover for a well-read book :)

    I think the illustration on that Hobbit cover are fantastic. I love that sort of thing, if it's not a photograph or photoshopped person.
