i hate ugly fonts and can't stand when there are real people on the cover - real people ALWAYS make a cover look tacky. bad photoshop is also awful. i like simple covers, ones with nice fonts, and ones with pretty artwork.

I do not like seeing actual people on the cover of a book.

I hate people on the cover, it ruins the chance to think how they might look in my head. I DO love when series have numbers on the spine and an actual summary on the back.

I hate real people on covers- especially faces/minimally clothed women
I didn’t know it was this common. You’re right: they do mess with the imagination.
