They're typically just tiny swatches of colors that have no discernable features I can make out anyway. By the time I get to the details page, it's all about the description at that point.

This is what I do too. I realized, a long time ago, that most book covers don't even relate to what the book is about. I doubt the artists have even read the books when they create the covers.
