Hosts Jenn and Mary adventure through weird cover art, absurd titles, and the downright confounding choices publishers make to sell books to try to determine what actually happens when you judge a book by it’s cover.

Casing the Cover was born when two library rats started wondering just how misleading, misguided, and mystifying book covers could really be.

In this episode we tackle Jenn's favorite read from last year, The Grace Year by Kim Liggett. As we explore this YA novel and its lovely but sinister cover, it also brings up discussions about cover trends in young adult fiction, and questions about why ebook covers and hardcovers are often so very different. So join us as we take on the case of The Grace Year!
