Our company has already made its decision, but I'm a bit curious as to the Peas' response. If you picked up a romance novel with the title Find Me and this photo, what would you expect the book to be about? Book Cover(Sorry, I can't get the silly photo to post)  |

A man with a comically small member.

A man having trouble finding love, and hoping to have sex sometime soon.

  They're using THAT on the cover of a romance novel?! Because I would expect it to be about a romance between someone and a guy with a tiny penis, which is, of course, the stuff from which all epic romances spring.

I wouldn't expect romance, only sex. Pretty much a no plot line book.

I wouldn't think it was a romance novel. Either a gag book or maybe something medical?

I would think it was some sort of comical sex guide for men.

I would think it was a book chronicling the struggles of a lesser endowed man trying to find himself and unconditional love.

I would think it's about the Incredible Shrinking Woman lost in this gentleman's pubes. It's a jungle out there!  |

My first thought was looking for a very small penis but I think that joke has something to do with a pepper shaker and maybe tweezers.
Other thoughts came to mind but they are sort of gross.
But romance no the thought never enter this little pea brain.

Wouldn't get past the cover to see what the book was about.

I wouldn't buy it. Or even really pick it up to read the back cover. I'd just assume it was going to be full of a type of humor that I don't really find funny. I know you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover and all, but when it comes to actual books, I admit it, I judge.  |

My first thought was "That is all kinds of wrong for a book cover for a romance novel."
I read little romance, but if I did, I would not pick that up, based on the cover alone!
No. Just no.....

Wouldn't pick up the book because of the photo itself. I might, however, take a photo of it to send to my friends and mock it. (I hope that image was vetoed.)

I'd expect the book to be a parody/spoof of typical romance novels, and likely also somewhat crude.

Is that the cover your employer chose for a romance book? It's tacky, tacky, tacky, if that's the case. They were fresh out of covers showing someone lurking around the corner of a dark building? I'd only pick it up if it were upside down on a stack. And I'd put it down without opening.

I'd pass right by it, not even reading the title or care what it is about.

I'd put it back upside down so nobody would know I'd even picked it up.
ETA: Julie is probably preparing the press release for it and too busy to check in here. : )

I, too, would completely bypass this book. It looks like maybe a self-help book, but either way that cover would be a giant turn-off.

I would expect it to be a comedy novel.
Please tell us what cover was chosen!
