Preferred book genres audience targeting

This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Preferred book genres (Books: Romance). A sample of responses:

• i like choice B the best. It's a lot shorter of a description.
• it include a content warning
• I like this description because it provides more detail. I also like the fact that it compares other books. I think it is very important that people are finding the types of reading material that they like.
• I don't really think a content warning is necessary and if anything it turns me off, since it's not really an author's business to tell me what I will and will not enjoy reading.
• I like the shorter fifth paragraph. The content warning on A is kind of funny, but I don't really need it in a book synopsis. B looks more professional.

This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Preferred book genres (Books: Romance). A sample of responses:

• I think the title in Option B makes me think there will be more to the story and make it more interesting.
• true love wins!
• I vote for option A. I guess that words "true love" are better than "triumph of love". At least for me option A has much more sense than option B. Might because I have TRUE love in my life. True love lasts forever. Triumph can't be for many years, it's a short feeling. IMHO.
• I feel that A reads more fluently. Sometimes less is more and I like that it is more direct and to the point.
• I would be more interested in this book because "triumph of love" tells me that the two people involved will need to overcome something that is likely interesting to the audience.

This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Preferred book genres (Books: Romance). A sample of responses:

• Though i really love the sun setting image on B but it looks quite warm and don't see much of a peace look. But in A, the image looks calmer and peace so i feel it fits well for the title of the book with blue background gives the vibes of Malibu beach.
• Choice B because of the vibrant color of the sunset and the sun shinning down on the gentleman. Make it a very attractive sell.
• I would rather buy choice B because this book cover is more lively. It is more vivid and radiant. The other is dull and boring and makes me think that the book will be boring. Seeing the sunset image in the background is bold and the man's radiant skin is very visually appealing. It leaves me curious about how interesting the book would be.
• I love the sunset and it was what I envision when I think of Malibu. The man is very attractive.
• B has to many effects added to it that it doesn't make the guy welcoming and want to know about the book, while A literally looks just like a picture that would be in a photo album

This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Preferred book genres (Books: Romance). A sample of responses:

• I like the white and black combo more honestly because the red against the black is actually quite hard for me to read and see so I prefer the white as it's easier for my eyes to follow.
• i like the black and white contrast.
• The option A definitely is more attractive and intriguing and keep the tone of what to expect from the book.
• Choice B is easier to read with the white text. Choice B looks more like a horror book with the red text, and makes me worried that something bad happens in the book. The book looks interesting, and I think if it is a romance then the white text is less scary.
• I like the white wording and image. It makes the words/image easier to read. The red runs into the black background.

This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Preferred book genres (Books: Romance) and Gender identity (Female). A sample of responses:

• i don't really like either one. i only chose B because it made more sense.
• I would not click on either, of I'm being honest, but choice B makes it seem like it may be a show I could watch that starting soon. The other one saying, "Due" is a bit confusing.
• B is bold, memorable, intriguing, and easy to remember.
• Option B sounds like something I would be interested in buying and sounds like a good opportunity for my gain. Option A just sounds like information is being given and it probably doesn't apply to me anyways.
• It just seems like option A is in reference to having a baby. Someone having a baby is always an exciting time. That is why I would choose A over B.

This is a 2 option poll with 100 respondents targeting Gender identity (Female) and Preferred book genres (Books: Romance). A sample of responses:

• i voted for b because it sounds more intriguing !
• I like both descriptions but chose B because it provided more detail about the potential romance between Kitty and the lieutenant.
• OPtion B makes me feel I am getting to know the characters and want to read the book already.
• I would buy both books because they both seems interesting and the story line is pretty similar. I would say it is the same story but I will chose B because it started of with a spirited girl which makes it appealing.
• This option seems like a true description or preview of a really good novel. It seems like other back cover synopsis of a romance novel.

This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Gender identity (Female) and Preferred book genres (Books: Romance). A sample of responses:

• I chose Option B for the book synopsis because even though both blurbs are explaining the same book, option B appealed to me more. What I don't like about Choice A is the first sentence, which describes the male character as a giant of a man in mind, body, and spirit. It turned me off for the rest of the summary of the book. The word giant, just didn't fit in with the regency type feel to the book. I would definitely purchase option B if the book was on Amazon, it reminds me of the Bridgerton Series, which is very popular right now. Good luck with the book!
• I like B more because I think that the language is more conversational and draws me in instantly. It makes it sound exciting.
• I love reading about woman's stories and since this first sentence is about the woman's view it caught my eye right away.
• Since this book is focused on Kitty and her adventure, option B is more appropriate. The opening lines of A would be more appropriate if the POV character was the Irish LT. With option B, it is much more obvious that you are going to be reading the story from Kitty Otis's POV.
• I like the way they tell you how the story goes.

This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Gender identity (Female), Age range (25 34, 55 64, 45 54, 35 44), and Preferred book genres (Books: Romance). A sample of responses:

• Forbidden city offers a bit of a naughty appeal for those who love this genre.
• I like A because it sounds more hopeful. B sounds like it might have more suspense, A sounds more like a light read.
• I chose option B because it is the only title that lets you know the story is a love story. I have no idea what "That Spring" means in Option A.
• B is more exciting and mysterious, the exotic kind of romantic. A is quirky, which is more of a rom-com to me, if that fits the story, but I would rather a romance with Option B.
• B tells you that the book is a love story so if that is type of book you are looking for you know based on the title you are getting a love story.

This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Preferred book genres (Books: Romance). A sample of responses:

• It was hard to choose. The costuming in choice A seems more historically accurate I I like that, but ultimately the expression on the woman in choice B looks kinder so I chose B.
• bs face looks more natural
• What can I say? I am a Jane Austen lover and would rather pick up a book that is in that style if I were given the choice. I also like the cover photo of B in that the young woman, though dressed traditionally for the times shows a little bit of sparkle in the way the hat is worn, and not quite tied, and that look in her eye. She could cause problems.
• The book title is more interesting along with the description. Also, the picture of the girl is much better on option B.
• I like the cover illustration a lot more. It is a bit more upbeat. A is much more depressing, from the dark clouds to the woman's face, to the shadows behind her. I would prefer to read a book that at least looks like someone is going to have a happy ending.

This is a 2 option poll with 50 respondents targeting Preferred book genres (Books: Romance). A sample of responses:

• To be honest, it had more typos and needed more of an editor, but the other option felt a little too try-hard. Neither of the descriptions made me believe it would actually fit the time period without cringe, but option B at least didn't make me think about how the Lieutenant was probably going to have all his lines written in phonetically written Irish brogue.
• To be honest, I wouldn't want to read either. Neither description sounded like something I would enjoy reading. However, if I had to pick, I would choose A. It was shorter and to the point. It left more to the reader's imagination, therefore getting you a bit more intrigued and interest. Option B was long and it described too much of the story.
• Choice A has a standard profile for the story that gives just enough background on both main characters that there is a lot of room to dream about the story. Choice B is just a synopsis of the majority of the book. Not a lot left to the imagination really.
• I chose option A. If I'm just browsing for a new book to read, I don't want to read a long description. A's description is short and has just enough information to decided if one wants to read it. B has too much extra information for a plot description/summary.
• I think including 5 stars that we can visually see makes the choice B jump out at me more
