no matter what happens, there will be books with neon-text-on-a-dark-background covers and they will be thrillers.

This is to true, you can tell which section is which genre in a bookstore without reading the labels, and thriller is the easiest one in my opinion. Also might I suggest No One Can Know, the authors name is evading me right now, but I’ll see if I can find it. Edit: the author is Kate Alice Marshall.

RIGHT like i get why it has detractors but at ONE GLANCE you can tell what you’re in for and if you’ll like it based on what you associate it with…. perfect book cover formula
