I do miss seeing the cover when I pick up my book to read - sometimes I can't even remember the title of the book I'm reading because it's so long since I saw the cover!

I really don't pay a lot of attention to covers on ebooks. The covers I'm familiar with on ebooks, honestly, are the ones that authors on MR use as their avatars or in their siggies
Sometimes I'll see a striking cover, but it's not really what catches my interest. Strange, since I'm all about the spine of a paper book! I do really notice the titles of ebooks, though, and I get my own ideas from those. Kind of interesting, since I've read a lot of great books whose titles I really wasn't into and probably wouldn't have looked at twice on a spine (unless the font was such that it captured my interest.)
All rambling aside, I've just realized that I'm all about the fonts! The font on a cover or a spine captures my interest...
Hmm, off to go psychoanalyze myself...
