Cover vs. Cover is a weekly meme, hosted here, where I compare different covers of the same book. For more information, visit the Weekly Features page.
This week's competing covers are:
The US Cover The UK Cover
vs.
US, definitely. While I like the scene from the book that's portrayed on the UK cover, I can't forgive the cheesy-style art.
But actually, the cover I like better than either of these is the one for the US hardcover:
You know how most of the time when a series starts out with a different cover than the other books, you can't have a matching set if you buy the hardcovers? That really annoys me, but in this case, the
Leviathan hardcover is only slightly different from the covers of following books, so if you buy the hardcovers you can still have a matching set!
I love this meme. Covers are so awesome and sometimes there can be such a MAJOR difference between US and UK.
ReplyDeleteAnd for this week? Definitely NOT the UK one. It is rather cheesy :P
Oh, I love that book. And I agree, the UK version is really cheesy.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. I like both US covers, but I like the Hardcover best. Great post :)
ReplyDeleteYes, I HATE it when hardcovers no longer match the rest of the series!!
ReplyDeleteAnd I agree with you re: the US vs. UK cover... though it's not really that the UK cover is terribly cheesy; it's more that it leaves nothing to our imagination.
But I have to disagree with the last cover you put up. I'm not getting the YA feel from it so I still like the other US one better :D.
I definitely like the US hardcover. So beautiful! Haven't read this one yet, but it's on the top of my to buy books!
