I don't really care what books look like, although I tend to choose British covers (I find the US covers almost always very ugly).
About reading odd things in public: I once made the mistake of bringing 'Lost girls' (Alan Moore) with me to read in the train. For those who don't know what this is about: it's a graphic novel about the sexual escapades of Wendy (Peter Pan), Dorothy (Wizard of Oz) and Alice (in Wonderland). It's VERY graphical in its depiction of sexual acts, so I was feeling a bit uncomfortable.... Grant Morrison's 'The filth' also has several nude-scenes, and the fellow travellers gave me some odd looks when they saw what I was reading
.
My sister's BF once read '120 days of Sodom' (Marquis de Sade) during lunch breaks at work. He admitted it wasn't the best book to read while eating.
