I haven't read One Day, despite my friends raving about it and trying to get me to read it, mainly because I found the cover very unappealing, and then because it's not a genre that interests me.
I'm also not a fan of covers where the cover is plain writing. Doesn't grab me at all. Imagination catches my eye every time.

I don't think taking pictures is anal at all! I use the Amazon bar-code scanner to add the books to my wish-list so that I can find them again.
