<< USAUK <3 <<
As you know l sometimes like to compare different covers for different countries and l found this an interesting one.I MUCH prefer the UK one, there is nothing l really like about the USA one to be honest but l do like the title more, l think it's more unique and stands out.
'The Missing' is a pretty simple title whereas Cryer's Cross leaves you wanting to read the blurb.

I think both of these covers suit Jodi's sort of books (from the sound of it) so l do like them both, simple but sweet.
The only thing is the colours in the PB, l dislike the greeny/yellow whereas in the HB l like the soft colours and how l can see the title better.
I also prefer the position of the tag-lines in the HB from the PB. All in all, they are both sweet covers =)

Paperback </3 <<
Isn't this a very popular series? l haven't ever read it myself but l believe it's very well known.
I dislike both this covers if l am being honest. The HB is just WAY too plain and the PB has too much stuff crammed onto it, all the taglines and quotes around her, l think if it was just her it would be an ok cover (and title and author of course) If l really wanted to read this and had to pick a cover l guess it would be the PB.
Please note, some covers l feature are also in other formats. For example a HB cover is usually also in PB and a PB cover is also sometimes on a HB etc.
Also sometimes the PB may be a UK one and the HB may be USA.
It's just away to compare covers.

I agree with you again, but I really prefer the hardback of Sing you home.

I find the Jodi P covers quite misleading. I avoided her for years but she writes about some quite controversial subjects. I loved Nineteen Minutes (about bullying and a school shooting and the aftermath).
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with you. I do like the cryers cross one I just think it looks more like a horror story. I'm glad you did this so I can look out for The Missing :D
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna have to disagree! I like the Cryer's Cross cover better, and I prefer the paperback of the Jodi Picoult one. But I'm with you on the last one - neither covers are great, but the paperback wins. Thanks, I always love this feature!
ReplyDeleteI like Jodi Picoult cover on the left and the other 2 on the right. PWB I loved 19 minutes too, I have a few on hers on my tbr
ReplyDeleteI prefer the UK cover for The Missing, but the US cover fits the story very well!
ReplyDeleteThe Girl Who Played With Fire is really about her, but I prefer cover from my country (Czech Republic), because I think is much better. http://www.nakladatelstvi.hostbrno.cz/img/catalog/obrazek-3/428.jpg
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you : I love the UK cover of The Missing but I prefer the US title !! =)
ReplyDeleteYup, I agree too, especially about the Cryer's Cross title with The Missing cover! That would have been rad.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone for letting me know your thoughts, l love reading them all.
ReplyDeleteWillinda - That is a very colourful cover! =)
