You Can't Judge A Book By Its Cover #273

- 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
Joshilyn Jackson has a new novel coming out in the next week - Never Have I Ever. The US cover is on the left and the UK cover is on the right. "It starts as a game at a book group one night. Never Have I Ever... done something I shouldn't." Havinf read the synopsis, I've added it to my teetering TBR pile. Both covers easily convey domestic suspense with the house images and keys. The US cover with multiple houses shows a neighbourhood, while the single key seems more sinister. The tag line on the UK cover gives prospective readers a bit more info. I'm going to go with the UK cover this week - the image just seems to promise more and the US looks like a family relationship tale perhaps. What about you?
Which cover do you prefer? And plans to read Never Have I Ever?
You Can't Judge A Book By Its Cover is a regular feature at A Bookworm's World.

I like the simplicity of the UK cover too.

The N.A. cover does look too busy so it’s the UK cover for me......this is a book I might have passed on....but with the endorsement of Clare Macintosh (love her books), I’ve added it to my list ;-)

I think I like the US better, there's more depth to the image.

I like the US cover better -- it also fits more with the story.
Just read this a few days ago and LOVED it!

I like the US cover the best. I've enjoyed her books in the past I will have to look into this one!
