>don't judge a book by its cover
I know people say this but I pretty much will only look at a book if it has nice cover art. You can always tell what the garbage is by looking at the cover. Have you ever read a book that was great that looked like garbage from the cover art?

One of the covers of Canticle for Leibowitz makes it look like complete pleb tier scifi trash
What can be said of book covers:
- 90% of the time flashy covers are pop garbage
- 99% of the time books with a photo of the author on the front aren't worth reading
Beyond those heuristics, the adage "don't judge..." should be followed
