  1. Those by Lauren definitely are interesting! Especially Replica as I feel like the colors "pop" and are eye catching. :)

  2. That Tarzan title sounds bonkers! Love it and the whole feel of your list! This is my TTT this week, half covers and half titles.

  3. Covers are so important and for many readers when browsing in bookstores the cover seems to be what makes them pick up the book and perhaps read the back cover or jacket cover. So many covers look similar these days. I love the old covers and the ones you featured are classics.

    Have a GREAT day!

  8. That cover for Replica always grabs my attention every time I see it😁

  9. Summer Days and Summer Nights has such a fun and warm cover. If I wasn't already familiar with all the authors, the cover would have drawn me in.

  10. The cover for Panic makes me want to see what it's about. Have a great week!

  11. I still need to read Summer Days and Summer Nights! That MUST be an August read.

  12. I love that you included a Choose Your Own Adventure book on your list! Those books are so awesome. I loved reading them as a kid...and still do to tell you the truth. :D

  13. Dragons always interest me to check out a book.

    I have read 'Replica' but I still don't get the butterfly cover.

    I don't what it is but I find '20,000 Leagues Under the Sea' a bit boring so maybe I should read it again.

    I like those old time/retro covers. These reminds me I need to read more books published in earlier times. Good list.

    Have a lovely day.

  14. That Panic cover (and probably the blurb) had me reading that book! All your old school covers always make me want to read the books you post, too.

    ReplyDelete
  15. I've been burned too many times with covers/titles so it may get me to investigate further but not make me read.

    But you find the strangest (in a good way) covers!

  16. The Shark Club is one of those books that has a great title AND cover combo, I love it!

    ReplyDelete
  17. I thought Panic sounded so good, and then it ended up being a major disappointment.

  18. Panic, the first one would make me read the blurb for sure.

  19. That Choose Your Own Adventure cover brings back lots of happy memories! I used to INHALE those books. Such fun reads.

    Happy TTT!

  20. The cover of When the Grren Star Calls really caught my eye!

    ReplyDelete
  21. I didn't even notice the guys chasing the man on the cover of One Against Herculum until you pointed it out. Nice touch!

    And "I love when the brontosaur steps on the time machine, fizzling it out" is not a sentence I expected to read today. It sounds awesome!

    ReplyDelete
  22. I remember wanting to read Panic because that cover is just good. Umm.. I didn't like it. lol! I loved the cover for Replica but I never read that one!

    ReplyDelete
  23. I’m pretty sure I read that Cave of Time book as a kid. I loved those Choose Your Own Adventure stories. I had a ton of them.

    Aj @ Read All The Things!

  24. The covers for those Choose Your Own Adventures were always a lot of fun! Thanks for sharing, Greg!

  25. I always loved the covers for the Choose Your Own Adventure books as a kid but I was terrible at them! I always died in the first two turns. All of these are great covers!

    ReplyDelete
  26. Some of these old pulp covers are definitely interesting! I might not want to read them, exactly, but they sure make me wonder just what the heck is going on!

    ReplyDelete
  27. A Dance of Dragons would intrigue me if I were into dragons at all. LOL. Tunnel Through Time...The Cave of Time...everything with "time" in it will pique my interest!

    ReplyDelete
  28. That shark club does look interesting

    ReplyDelete
  29. Summer Days and Summer Nights has such a great cover. I really enjoyed the winter version (My True Love Gave to Me) but for some reason I never read the summer one.

  30. I've missed visiting and I've missed seeing The Shark Club. Also, have you seen the new cover of the Panic book. I still probably never read it but I did love the series. Who'd have thought a tiger! Now I'd have put THAT on the cover.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Replica is definitely eye-catching to me! That 20,000 Leagues cover also really makes me want to read it. Those Tarzan covers are always fun, too.

    ReplyDelete
  32. The Cave of Time is similar to the ones from the Dungeons and Dragons series. I used to love those: having the possibility of different endings and being able to choose your own path is the very spirit of what the genre of RPG is.

    ReplyDelete
  33. ... And now I really want to get my hands on Cave of Time. It looks like enormous fun!

    ReplyDelete
  34. All interesting covers! Thanks for the suggestions :)

    ReplyDelete
  35. Lauren Oliver's books always have such great covers! I bought her book Vanishing Girls for the cover because of how interesting it is :)

  36. I have A Dance with Dragons. I haven't read it. 😄

  37. Those Choose Your Own Adventure books always had the coolest covers.
