Herman’s vegetarian cookbook has got worse: now suffers from ‘Font Boredom’ where it didn’t before :-/
Wolf 359 and Darcy’s… are much improved.

One thing I’ve noticed on a number of these is that the old covers and the new seem to be for different books. In this batch, we have “Escaping Memories,” “Tap Doubt,” “To Love or Not to Love,” and “Shadow of Worlds,” where I have a very different guess as to what the book is about based on the different covers. I’d like to say that the authors have wised up, but I know with at least one of the previous batch, the guess grew less accurate.
Also on “Shadow of Worlds,” I have to say I’m disappointed in the new cover. It went from an interesting surreal idea (that admittedly had issues with the execution) to a stock image I’ve seen a billion times before.
What’s kinda painful is that you can see that a large-ish number of these–and the others–have been “updated” to Amazon Cover Creator versions. How can that possibly, ever, be considered an upgrade? The DIY, autobot Cover Creator? Ouch.

Damn Nate, that was extremely witty.
I aim to please.
