Should be Reading hosts Friday Finds—an opportunity to share on their site “books you
‘found’ and added to your To Be Read (TBR) list.” Mine is Spheres of Influence by Ryk E. Spoor.
The
vivid cover attracted my attention, and when I looked it over in a bookstore, I
found the writing style was somewhat similar to mine: A minimal amount of
dialog tags (e.g., he said, he asked, he whispered, he shouted, etc.). The way
the dialog is included in paragraphs should show who is speaking.
I
made an exception to my current practice of buying fiction in the form of
e-books. I bought it from that bookstore as a way of rewarding them for
allowing me to grab it off their shelf look it over, and as a way of having the
cover artwork lying around.
Just goes to show how important the cover art is for attracting the buyer :)
