Yes, but not in a truly poetic sense. It represents a metaphor, but it couldn’t pass for one on an english exam

Never judge a mint by it’s cover is not necesarily a metaphor. Unless placed in a context where you make it clear that the mint represents a book, this is not a metaphor.

A metaphor directly compares one thing to another, most commonly “(subject a) is (subject b)”.
