Results: Do you judge a book by it's cover?

Happy Wednesday, everyone! Before I give you the answers to Monday's question, there is something I'd like to say.

HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY DAVEEEEEDDDD!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU! MUAH!

As you can tell, it's my hubby's 21st birthday. I hope it's a great day for him--that's also the explanation of why today's post is so short.

Back to business. So on Monday, I asked you all if you could judge books by their cover. I listed ten books and asked you to state in the comments whether you thought they were from a large press or a small press. Here are the correct answers. I've also listed what percentage of you who answered guessed correctly.


Book #1 
100% correct--You all knew this was a small press book
 
BELL BRIDGE BOOKS--SMALL PRESS



Book #2
0% correct--You all guessed large press. WRONG!
 
OMNIFIC PUBLISHING--SMALL PRESS


Book #3
        100% correct--You all knew this was a small press book
 
BELL BRIDGE BOOKS--SMALL PRESS
 

Book #4
66% correct--Over half of you knew this was small press
 
OMNIFIC PUBLISHING--SMALL PRESS
 

Book #5
100% correct--All of you knew this was large press
 
ROC (division of ACE)--LARGE PRESS
 

Book #6
66% correct--Over half of you knew this was small press
 
WILD ROSE PRESS--SMALL PRESS
 

Book #7
100% correct--You all knew this was a small press book
 
SAMHAIN PUBLISHING--SMALL PRESS
 


Book #8
66% correct--Over half of you knew this was large press 
 
HARLEQUIN--LARGE PRESS
 



Book #9
66% correct--Over half of you knew this was large press
 
HARLEQUIN TEEN--LARGE PRESS
 

Book #10
100% correct--All of you knew this was large press
 
RANDOM HOUSE--LARGE PRESS
 

Based on the above percentages, that means those of you who voted were correct 76.4% of the time. That means that the data shows that most of the time, you really can judge a book by it's cover. Good job, everyone! Thanks to all who voted!
