Not only do I prefer to start with the cover, I would also love if the cover was the lock screen when I open my device. My Sony -- my last e-ink before switching to iPad for my reading device -- did that.
Currently, opening my cover turns on the iPad on the page where I left off (if I didn't close the app before closing the cover) and I wish it instead opened to the book cover and swiping returned me to the page I last read.
If I back out of the book, and go to the home page, then I can select the book's cover there, and I get a brief flash of it full size as the book opens, but I would prefer to see it every time I go into the book, no matter how I left off.
