The JABBIC Readers' Choice (that's Judge A Book By Its Cover) is open to the public.The JABBIC bookseller judges have had their say. Now it's time for you to have yours.
Fire up your laptop, tablet, or phone and browse to the JABBIC Readers Choice page to start logging your votes. It's easy and fast--and anonymous. (But you probably want to be on a broadband connection. We load up all the entries in each category on a single page.)
Just click the genre category at the top and prepare to be wowed. Don't be shy. If you love a cover, give it a 5. If it doesn't quite turn you on, score it as a 1.
This contest is great if you're trying to figure out what makes an appealing cover since it is judged by booksellers who probably see thousands of covers every year. Their winners will be announced after the public has voted.
If you're thinking about hiring your own cover designer, keep an eye out for the cover artist's name because they're there too. When you contact a designer, be sure to let them know you spotted them in the JABBIC!
The Readers' Choice judging will be open until midnight, February 12.
I'll announce the winners when they are made public so you can see how your selections stacked up against the booksellers' choices.
Takeaway Truth
This is a great contest for readers who have firm opinions about what they like in covers and for authors who want to see what the competition sports. Check it out and remember to vote.
