Welcome to REIGNfall, our weekly series on book topics where we talk fiction and ponder the world of storytelling.

Books are judged by their covers. But we take their titles to task. We find some pretty bad book names, and talk about just how mediocre they get. We cry foul on some of them. (We find out even great writers have bad book names.) Got any atrocious titles? Let us know.

Weekly book topics on fiction of all shapes and sizes.

Book covers are like a gateway into great stories. They become intertwined with the experience of any great tale and can instantly transport you back into what you loved most about the story. So we picked some iconic book covers to go alongside our favorite movie posters and album covers. We love this art and share why it matters.

What book covers made a difference in your reading experience? What is one you’ll never forget and why?
