You Can't Judge A Book By Its Cover #63

- You can't judge a book by its cover - which is very true.
But you can like one cover version better than another...

US cover
UK cover
I'm really looking forward to Karin Slaughter's newest book releasing in September in the US and July in the UK. She's a fantastic crime novelist. Pretty Girls is a stand alone. The US cover is on the left and the UK cover is on the right. Well, both covers have a blurb from Lee Child. The UK is more explicit and definitely lets you know it's a crime novel. But this week, I think I am drawn more to the subtlety of the the locket falling in the  US cover. What cover do you prefer? Do you plan to read Pretty Girls?
You Can't Judge A Book By Its Cover is 
a regular Saturday feature at

I am definitely planning on reading Pretty Girls. And I like the US cover better too. Actually, either one is good, but I like the color scheme on the US cover. Can't wait!

I read an advance copy but found it jarringly violent. I wasn't familiar with her work so I wasn't expecting it. Looking forward to Reading your thoughts on this book after you've read it.

Icewineanne, it would be jarring if you hadn't read her before - her crimes are brutal. Lucky you getting an ARC!
