Re: How did your first impression of [insert work here] influence your perception of it in odd ways?

[(Anonymous)]

I judge books by their covers. I am not a terribly visual person when I read, and tend not to see scenes in my head unless the writing is unusually vivid, but the colors of a book's cover art inform my reading of it. I first read The Last Unicorn in a borrowed edition with a silver cover, and then bought it several years later with a watercolor-y green cover. Obviously the text was identical, but there was a subtle something in the back of my head that said "This is not quite the same book." A couple years ago I found the original edition I'd read in a secondhand store and immediately snapped it up, and now it feels like the "right" book again.

On a similar note, the general opinion is that Prisoner of Azkaban is where the tone of the Harry Potter books started getting darker. In my mind, it didn't happen until Goblet of Firex because that was the first book where the cover wasn't mostly oranges, reds, and pinks.
