Welcome back to Cover Snark! From Alicia: I work in a library and I think your site has corrupted my (already corrupt) brain. I pulled this book for a customer recently and was immediately very concerned for the dog. The look on his face. Someone take that dog away from him and find it a new home! Sarah: That dog, which I think is an Australian shepherd, does look like it’s giving the side eye … Continue reading Cover Snark: We Gotta Save That Dog→
Welcome back! July is moving and grooving. Startlingly so. My reading slump somewhat continues. I’ve been sporadically playing the audiobook of Dungeon Crawler Carl, but it’s not a daily occurrence. Moonlight Peaks came out last week. It’s a farming sim with a cozy-ish, supernatural twist. I’m enjoying it so far and I think it does a good job of pacing out the content. There’s no rushing through things. Also for people who don’t like combat, I don’t … Continue reading Links: Cover Snark, the Hunchback of Notre Dame, & More→
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→
Welcome back to Cover Snark! From Pam G: They only get one wing each? How does that work? Like a three-legged race, only a mile up in the air? What if her hair gets tangled in her feathers? Pleather Warehouse would go broke without them. Sarah: Maybe she has all those straps because they have to fly tethered together, as Pam G said, like a three legged race in the sky. Amanda: They all look … Continue reading Cover Snark: Amazing Reader Submissions→
Welcome back to Cover Snark! From Maeve: Her bra sheath slipped. The angle’s also wrong to go through her heart. And no arms? The longer I look at this, the more wrong it feels. Sarah: I know what I’m looking at but everything looks slightly…off. Amanda: An accurate depiction of my acid reflux. Sarah: Gosh, mine, too. Yikes. From Jen: Not sure what’s wrong with this cover but it’s just wrong. Sarah: That is some … Continue reading Cover Snark: When Your Hair Doubles as a Fidget Toy→
Welcome back to Cover Snark! Elyse: I read this as The Earl Train Choo-choo! Sarah: First I saw Carl Frain, then Carl Train. I had to look for the middle arm in that E because it looks like a ribbon off her dress. Maybe the Earl’s name is Carl? Train also has a few meanings which makes this rather interesting to ponder. Elyse: Now I have logistical questions Is the Earl running the train or … Continue reading Cover Snark: My Name is Chux, Just Chux→
Welcome back to Cover Snark! Elyse: The artist was sick the day the learned to draw the lower body. Sneezy: Never skip leg day. Amanda: Her dress reminds me of those Barbie dress cakes. Sarah: That is just So Much Dress. Also, are his trousers open in the front?! My word! From Syntha: I don’t even know where to start with this one. Sarah: He looks like someone. Who does he look like. It’s going … Continue reading Cover Snark: Detective Stabler, Is That You?→
Welcome back to Cover Snark! From M: Another cut and paste disaster. This guy’s head is not only too small for the rest of him, but someone removed his neck. And what the heck are those red circles? Leftover Christmas ornaments? Sarah: I need the Harley community to weigh in on giant red jingleballs on your handlebars. Seems…unwise. And I cannot stop laughing at this poor man’s pasted on head. My God the indignity. His … Continue reading Cover Snark: Burger King and Bobbleheads→
NB: Images are back! Hooray! Welcome back to Cover Snark! From Karen H: I actually like this cover since I generally like men with muscles and the color scheme is different and pretty. But, the model’s left shoulder just looks like it has a weird growth. It’s probably the lighting but didn’t anybody look at it beforehand? Or does it look normal to everybody but me? Sarah: I didn’t think so at first glance, but … Continue reading Cover Snark: Babies in Space→
Welcome back to Cover Snark! From Elizabeth: I can’t. Just beyond bonkers. The antlers also seem to be a crown?!? Or a third eye and antlers?!? And based on deer man, is the guy behind him a magic skunk with the white? Cover has flowers, fire, shrubs, a cave, library shelves and books. Plus random mismatched fonts. Jeez. Sarah: Left dude and Center dude have the same Cut and Paste face, right? RIGHT? (It’s freaking … Continue reading Cover Snark: Jazz Hands→
Welcome back to Cover Snark! These covers were all sent in by the community! From Jane Buehler: At first glance (small thumbnail) I thought he was shooting out a laser beam from his chest! Sarah: That’s an interesting place for a stigmata. Amanda: Why is he so grainy, like his skin is the texture of a basketball. Sarah: Wait. WAIT. Whatever this cheetah-print thing is, it is both above and below his pec. What IS … Continue reading Cover Snark: Community Submissions→
