Random cover oddness

Kinda creepy hero:



Nurse Jane's Choice by Dan Ross.

A line you wouldn't necessarily see on a modern WWL romance:

"Dominic didn't really like women - until he saved Chantel's life...

Random

Oh my poor neglected blog...

The Deep Roots by Anita Grey

I love the old covers, they are often quite dramatic and just plain interesting.
Bring back proper artwork to covers I say.


The Passionate Summer by Hettie Grimstead

Non romance book covers also entertain me

Am currently working through a massive pile of last week's haul for the ebay shop, and some of the covers... and titles are entertaining me and offending me.

We have this Piers Anthony title:

The Colour of her Panties??? FFS
And what is with that mermaid - is she anorexic??


Then for covers we have the 'delightful' Flashman books by George MacDonald Fraser

and again

Heh.

Oh 80s covers, you've aged well


They have used the same model for those three guys haven't they?
It a bit creepy..

Another ummm interesting cover.






I'm not sure whether I am more disturbed by the heroine or the hero on this cover...
While the heroine looks terminally ill, the red-headed hero looks like a professor I had at uni, who was in his sixties.
It is just awkward.. and gloomy... and disturbing.

Especially when you factor in the cheery type from the front cover: "If you reach for the stars, your hands may remain empty." Doctor on the Snow by Leslie Lance.
