Since today’s Booking Through Thursday’s prompt is highly visual and I can’t drop an image in the comments, here’s mine, the book I bought based solely on the cover:
Propaganda Girls: The Secret War of the Women in the OSS by Lisa Rogak was sitting there face-out in Barnes & Noble. I was there to buy another hardcover book: Women of War: The Italian Assassins, Spies, and Couriers Who Fought the Nazis by Suzanne Cope (you’re sensing a trend, aren’t you?), when Propaganda Girls caught my eye.
Y’all, I barely flipped through the pages. Luckily, I had a gift card and a coupon.
I did enjoy the book. If anything, I wanted more detail, not less. Still, it was easy and enjoyable to read, and I don’t regret buying it.
Because just look at that cover.
