Yes, you do buy a book for it's cover. The cover of The Grift, was the reason I picked it up, and then bought it. I thoroughly enjoyed escaping into another world, with the character Marina Marks. She's "been on the grift since she was a child, forced into the psychic business by a junkie mother who was always willing to use her daughter to scam an extra buck. But when Marina wakes up one day with the actual ability to see the future, she finds her freedom–and her life–in danger. After predicting a murder exactly as it happens, Marina becomes the sole suspect. Now she’s desperate to clear her name–and to discover the meaning behind her visions." It's a good read.
