Welcome back to Cover Snark! Sarah: This is quite a cover. I’m honestly not sure if I like it? Elyse: She needs to see someone about her thyroid. Sarah: I think the sense I get for this cover is “almost perfect.” If he’d been one step higher so they were closer in height and, uh, alignment, I don’t think I’d be so puzzled. His placement between her knees is very hot – and hey he … Continue reading Cover Snark: Well, That’s Certainly a Helmet
