Rules for book covers

1. The people should be white.
2. The corpse should be female.

Ideally, that would reflect the book's content, but if not, too bad.

HA! This reminds me of "The Head in the Refrigerator," about gratuitous violence towards female comic book characters. I also can't seem to find it online right now so I've probably got the title wrong.

I wonder when publishers of both types of book will realize that women read too. Maybe we should talk back more.

EDIT: Ah, here we go: Women in Refrigerators.
