- You can't judge a book by its cover - which is very true.
But you can like one cover version better than another....
UK cover |
US cover |
I've really enjoyed Fiona Barton's previous books and was excited to see she has a new book - The Suspect - coming out in January 2019. The US cover is on the left and the UK cover is on the right. Okay, so muddy, darker tones on both covers. Author's name at the top of both covers. The title in white with a similar font on both covers. Two different images though. The US cover draws on (what I believe to be) a woman's image. Reflection of an image I feel as it's upside down. The image on the UK cover appeals to me much more. A burnt notebook, a cryptic question. So it's the UK cover for me this week. What about you? Which cover do you prefer? Any plans to read The Suspect?
You Can't Judge A Book By Its Cover is a regular feature at A Bookworm's World.
I think I like the US cover because of the color.
ReplyDeleteA split decision so far...
ReplyDeleteAlthough I’ve never read anything by her before, the UK cover definitely makes me want to pick this one up.
ReplyDelete(US cover looks like someone floating straight upside down in the water - hah hah) Love the torn notebook & black & white on the cover of the UK edition, so for me - it wins!
Oh I hadn't seen the person floating straight up until you mentioned it - it does look like a skull/head.
