Hmmm... cant decide! I think I like them both:)

  1. I was blown away by the blue cover, you will be too if you see it in real life. It comes out of the page!

  2. They're both pretty but I don't like white spaces. The placing and the size of the title on the right one seems off so I prefer the blue cover.

  3. They're SO different - I also like them both and can't decide!

  5. I like the one on the left. I find the one on the right a bit sickly to be honest :-)

  6. I like the ones with the people. It's more earnest.

  7. Umm, this is a hard one! But, if I was backed into a corner, the UK one.

  8. I like them both and I can't decide! Is the one on the left the UK one?

  9. Ooops - yes the left is the UK (as shown on Amazon) and the right is US :)

  10. I like the UK one better...
    You can't really read the title on the other one and the picture looks weird...

  11. I like the second one. I like covers with people on them and that would be would prompt me to pick the book up and read the description. I probably would have passed it up if I saw the first cover.

  12. I like the first one.

    (And all I can think of with the word 'pretty' is Scott Westerfeld's Uglies series!)

  14. @Nayuleska: I'm reading the Uglies series right now! xD

    Both covers have their good points and their bad points. UK has the floral summery feel to it. However, if I were to see it in a bookshop, I'd probably just pass it by. US has people-- and I think it engages more with me, since it paints at least a little snippet of what the storyline, or characters could be about. Though, there is a lot of white space.

    Hmm...I'll have to compare in real life someday. I really want to read this one though- it sounds good and I've read good reviews on it.
