It’s a Monday! Can we interest you in some Cover Snark?
From Amy: Is this cover snark worthy? or is it just another alien dude checking himself out?
Sarah: Both? Both. Yes, both.
Amanda: There are so many.
Sarah: What are they looking for? Are they surprised? Is this a conversation?
Amanda: Wait a sec, this wasn’t here a minute ago.
Elyse: So. Shiny.
Sarah: Did it just bring me a beer? Nice!
Carrie: Every time we have this kind of cover I have the same comment: I appreciate a positive body image and self-pleasure, and yet I feel that anyone that enamored of their own genitalia is not going to be that into me.
From Meg
Sarah: Why. Why are there so many covers of dudes looking down at their junk. Why. WHY.
Was there a cover model mandate, like “Everybody! Look down!”
Instead of listening to the Men Without Hats directive that “everybody look at your hands” the cover models get, “LOOK DOWN. NOW.”
Lara: It’s exhausting!
Shana: I just do not get this mandate. Has it ever been hot? I can’t think of a single cover where it worked
Carrie: Let’s not.
Amanda: I just picture him as a mall Santa. Sir, this is a Sbarro.
Amanda: I can’t stop laughing at those comically large buttons
Maya: Do you think the help she needs from the bachelor is figuring out all manner of fasteners?
Amanda: “You know these could be smaller. They have the technology now.”
Sarah: This is another cover pose that baffles me. Who lies down like this?
AJ: I know we already snarked this same book but I just need you all to know that WITHIN ALIEN ARMS HAS A SECOND COVER.
I’m honestly finding this one even more confusing. What’s wrong with his skin? Is it like, that crackle glaze pottery? Is he microwave safe? SO MANY QUESTIONS
Amanda: My brain is just blaring Creed’s “With Arms Wide Open”
Tara: This has been in my head all day since reading this comment this morning.
Amanda: I’m so sorry.
Elyse: Did anyone see two giant arms not four? Or is that just me?
Susan: How do those shoulders work???
Sarah: I want to give this individual a very large tub of Eucerin.
AJ: So I’m reading the four armed alien book because I had so much dang fun with the pandas I wanted to read more crazy covers. It was actually going really good but then they just like…start kissing randomly in the middle of a serious conversation about intergalactic politics. Also like 5 minutes after they meet. And maybe I’m just a slow burn bitch but ARGH this makes no narrative sense and it BOTHERS ME.
