Not all dust jackets are the same for every book. My naive self never connected the dots on how there some books have different covers depending on the region. ANYWAY! I decided to do something fun—’This or That Thursdays’ where I compare different covers of the same book.
Title: Daughter of Smoke and Bone
I don’t know about you, but I’m biased. I prefer books with no real faces on it as I’d like to imagine characters freely. Although, I’ll admit that the US version is very eye-catching but I just love how inviting and intriguing the UK version is.
Winner: UK Cover
Title: Nevernight
Both covers are beautiful and I would normally pick the US cover—I just love the symmetry with the art, however, the intricate details on the US cover is so gorgeous.
Winner: UK Cover
Title: Caraval
Now here’s a tough decision. Both are gorgeous. However, I’d have to pick the US cover. It sparks more of a magical and grand atmosphere and it’s bright and vivid. Very eye-catching! If this was a lamp and a moth moment, I’m the moth and the US version is the lamp. So pretty.
Winner: US Cover
Out of the covers, which ones did you prefer?
