Need for proper summaries instead of sketchy comments on the back cover of books/novels


Need for proper summaries instead of sketchy comments on the back cover of books/novels
The Issue
These days we often find sketchy comments and one - liners from random sources on the back of novels and books which provide inadequate information about what the book or the novel entails. This becomes excruciatingly difficult for the reader who is looking out for a new book amongst loads and piles of titles that they find in libraries and bookstores.
This is a petition requesting all authors and publishing houses to make an effort to concoct a passable synopsis of the book at the backside of it so that we readers get to know of what it encompasses before we finally make a decision to read it.
