Crude World is a decent cover, but I Love love love the title, except for the use of the word Twilight. Need to let the term cool off for a bit. Ayn Rand is an awful cover. Playgirl - could do without the border.
I haven't commented on five for fridays before because I generally like most things you choose, but I thought I should say hello. I just wish that the text on Ayn Rand was more aligned with the lines of the building behind it. The lines of the text are conflicting with those of the image as it stands now.
Dig the Crude Oil cover. Very ominous. bleh on Ayn Rand. Solid B+ on Cutting Up Playgirl.
ReplyDeleteOnly thing I don't get is: playgirl is a magazine of naked men. So why is there a woman on the cover?
ReplyDeleteThe cover features the fantasy image of the protagonist - an uptight, repressed woman on a quest for sexual and emotional fulfillment....
ReplyDeleteThanks Dan!
ReplyDeletevery nice pick for friday. All of them shall look smashing on the shelf...

oh come on... isn't "awful" way too harsh of a word?
ReplyDeleteYeah, "awful" is harsh. I like the Rand cover. Not everything I post in these Friday Fives will be things I like, but I do like this.
ReplyDeleteOr Friday Fours, or Friday Threes... :-)
