I really enjoyed the book cover quiz. It was a fun way to get our feet wet as well as a way to make us think of the importance of covers. They make an impression without our realizing it. Obviously publishers know this and they spend money to influence us. I learned some new sub-genres through the second book jacket quiz. It was another fun, but educational exercise.
I am choosing the NPR book list and the SF genre list. I am familiar with the NPR list, but I'm not a regular user. It will be interesting to see how it changes over the next few weeks. I just saw the new Oz movie and I thought it was neat that they were making connections to it with their Backseat Book Club. The SFsite will be a completely new and different experience for me. I look forward to learning more.
