If a tree falls in the forest and there’s no one there to hear it, does it make a rainbow in the dark?

Who knew that the Loch Ness monster lived under one of the golden arches?
BZZZZZT (“wrong” buzzer) That’s not a rainbow. That’s an arch with fungus growing on the underside of it.
But hmm… “A Bitch Boy Romance”… Sounds kinky; I’m intrigued…
Prepare to be disappointed. I think the blurb reads Birch Bay but with that lousy font on this cover, I won’t bet on it.
I am sad to report that it is a Birch Bay Romance.
A pity really. It had potential.
I’d read the hell out of a Bitch Boy romance.
Dio would be very disappointed.
I think those are two people kissing under the rainbow. I think.
Also, yay for cheesy Power Point font.
Can you read that???
Does the Cheesy McFont come with fries and a soda?
Ech. That black blob could be the giant mollusk rising from the Salton Sea in “The Monster That Challenged the World”. Or two giant mollusks kissing. Who can tell with that cover? The Look Inside! at Amazon is no clearer. It’s a Rorschach ink blot test.
So many awful covers have nothing but 5 star reviews.
This one is particularly fun. Not only is one review all in caps, another appears to legitimately have been written by the author and it is a synopsis for the book.
Money buys everything.
Except love.
Good point. Lennon & McCartney proved that in a song.
Helen Keller would love this cover… and the Dark Rainbow.
Oh, wait…
As a romance cover, this is an epic fail.
Aw, heck, it’s a failure as a cover for any genre.
This cover made me wonder what happens to black light when it goes through a prism. Apparently, it looks like this:
Definitely a better cover.
I would rather see a Maxwell Smart cover (“Missed it by that much”) that I could offer hints on improvements that would sell the book to me, but I have to confess that hopeless covers do unleash that inner snark who takes guilty pleasure in impersonating Tom Servo and Crow T. Robot.
Nothing says “Wheeee, look what my gr-oovy copy of Office 2000 can do!” like a flying 3D font!
