It's not really surprising that my worst covers are film tie-ins. Why do they exist? When had anyone ever wanted one? All Men Are Mortal is particularly awful. #badcovergoodbook #aprilbookshowers

Nat_Reads Agreed! 8y
zsuzsanna_reads I often spend ages tracking down non film tie-in covers! 8y
gossamerchild Wow. Those are terrible. Surprisingly terrible 😯 8y

JazzFeathers I have to agree with you. Covers should be covers, not second hand film posters 8y
i.z.booknook Yes! Completely agree! So annoying! 😂 8y
LeahBergen Blech. 8y
Moray_Reads @Nat_Reads @zsuzsanna_reads @gossamerchild @JazzFeathers @TheAliceEvers @LeahBergen I bought the Simone De Beauvoir second-hand online. I didn't even know they'd made a film so I was horrified by this monstrosity 8y
Sue My favourite de Beauvoir! Shame about the terrible cover though. Movie tie ins are the worst. 8y
Moray_Reads @Sue it's awful isn't it? I never really understood how they made the book into a film anyway 8y
Sue @Moray_Reads Me either, I feel that it would be one of those books where you can't capture the essence of what makes it wonderful on film. 8y

My #Woman Crush Wednesday is Simone de Beauvoir. She wrote so much more than just the Second Sex (which is awesome) AND she put up with Sartre. All men are mortal is my favourite of her novels. #wcw

BookishFeminist Agreed- love her. Sartre had to have been a pain in the ass. 8y
Chessa I loved her biography by Deirdre Bair! So fascinating. I need to read more of de Beauvoir herself. 8y
