Sound interesting. As a slowing down affect to it, it makes me wonder what it might be about. I'd probably read the blurb to get a closer look.

Sounds like a very hopeful story, maybe a little sad, with a very beautiful message to it.

Dream King huh? I would definetly buy it,assuming that the opening paragraph was good and all that stuff. Love the tittle. I think the only thing that would stop me from buying the book is if it was romance.

Sounds pretty interesting, I would assume it is either a tale of the troubles of real life or some sort of fantasy novel.
Still debating the title of mine, but:

Sorry, but anything with the word "Shards" immediately puts me on guard. A sort of emo book about somebody breaking the mirror of time, and rearranging the pieces quite clumsily to cause such occurrences as mobiuses, (is that the plural?), your grandfather is your son, et cetera. The heroes try to contact the person through the broken time to repair it...
I would check the blurbs if the cover art was interesting.

Something about overcoming a tragedy that occurs within a city? Might be terroristic or a natural disaster. I'd flip through it.

Sounds a bit cliche, but if it looked any good I would pick it up, scan over it and yes, I may buy it.

I'm guessing that this is between two worlds. Maybe about a girl who hears a voice calling her to a spot at dusk. If the cover art was good and the blurbs were interesting and well writen enough, I would buy it.
EDIT: Ooops. Forgot the tittle.

Seems like it would be similar to The Wizard of Oz. Some kind of adventure to a crystal city. I'd give it a try.

Nice with the alliteration. Gives a ring to it. Probably a science fiction novel about a person who can manipulate atoms, either through powers or technology. Not a big sci-fi fan, but I might give it spin.

In a way it sounds like its one of those stories that's typical. If the cover art is good, then I might read it. If the cover art isn't good, then I'll read the back, If it doesn't look boring i'd give it a try.

Sounds interesting. I would look at the blurb, but if it was jsut some guy's diary I would run away. If not, I owuld give it a thought.

Makes me think of Historical things, like wars and horses and sword battles. Not really my thing. Either that or something like father/son going to war, or something like that. I probably wouldn't read it personally.

Either horror or melodramatic chick lit. I'd be interested.
