First Impressions: Cover Sillies 2

Though the response to my first Cover Sillies post was not stellar, I am still interested in noting some strange first impressions I have on book covers.  My comments are not what I'd call criticism, more of strange or odd reactions to the covers.  Many covers I highlight are ones that I really love.  This collectin of covers is what I like to call the Awkward Bodies edition. 

Tell me I'm not the only one who thinks this position is awkward - it literally makes me uncomfortable to look at it.  Maybe I'm just seeing it wrong or something. 

Now I know this is odd on purpose, but I honestly think to myself "Don't try this at home, folks!"  It makes my back hurt imagining the model standing like that for any length of time.

 

I really love this cover, but since I've been experiencing neck problems recently, I cringe when I think about her neck pain. Hopefully she doesn't have to lie there for long (and is this a zombie or the main character?)

Now, I really really love this cover, but when I first saw it, I thought again of how painful her head position looks. Maybe it's just the placement of it in relation to his body, but it looks otherworldly. Probably part of its charm.

Do you notice these kinds of things or am I alone?

First Impressions: Cover Sillies

I'm going to do a little trial run of a new sort-of feature and if you think it's lame or weird, feel free to let me know (or if there are no comments, that's a good indication too :)  

Anyway, what I essentially will do is admit to my ridiculous first impressions of covers.  This could be a silly reaction or simply a misinterpretation of what is being shown.  I want to note that I am NOT making fun of the covers, which I've noticed most people love.  Obviously, that also goes for the contents of the books, some of which I haven't read.  This is purely based on covers.  What I'm saying is that every time I see them, I think something random about it.  Well, let me just show you.

 

Every time I see this cover, I think: she is smelling her armpit.  Seriously!  I don't know why I think that, but there it is.

And while we're talking about body odors...

 

Every time I see this cover, I think: he must have some killer bad vampire breath.  I think this will officially make my weirdness public.  Ah, well.

Any thoughts on these?  Any covers you misinterpret?
