#CoverCrush: The First Time I Said Goodbye

I will freely admit that I judge books by their covers. The cover is usually what first captures my attention when browsing Goodreads or Netgalley. Actually, in all honesty, it isn't just usually, it's pretty much all the time. The cover determines if I look at the synopsis and reviews.


Tea cups. I am a sucker for tea cups. Especially pretty, dainty ones. The photo in the background is vintage, likely World War 2. The letters are marked Return to Sender (I suddenly have Elvis singing in my head...). To whom were they written and why were they returned? What is the story?

What about you? Any book covers capture your attention this week?
