Book covers not being entirely accurate about what characters look like happens a fair bit (Harry and hats for example).

I know but they shouldn't be entirely inaccurate either. There are limits.
DragonEyes:
At least the last Molly cover matches the standard stereotype for women on fantasy novel covers. She's standing in a position that has GOT to be uncomfortable at the very least, but which accentuates her... body structure.

How do you picture her then? Other than without the leather clothing on.

Seriously, I picture her in skinny jeans and a t-shirt, usually with a brown robe. I was just being facetious.

The last picture to the right, the way her back is arched and head turned looks very uncomfortable. If you look at the covers of fantasy novels with women on the cover, they usually look to be very uncomfortable, actually.
