lizbeeCHEAP TWILIGHT KNOCK OFFS!
Work is full of crap teen novels with badly photoshopped red-on-black covers. They're all DOOMED ROMANCES involving SOME KIND OF SUPERNATURAL ELEMENT. Zombies are the big thing at the moment, but in a couple of weeks they'll have been out of fashion and we'll have teen incubus romances.
I've also been seeing classic novels with Twilight-style covers. It actually suits Wuthering Heights pretty well, but I fear customers will be disappointed by Pride and Prejudice. I'm hoping a red-on-black version of Anne of Green Gables comes out next. Or Little Women. Nothing says supernatural angst like a Civil War-era pre-feminist moral fable!
