Cover Wars (5)

A battle between two covers. One from the US, one from the UK. 3...2...1... FIGHT!
Round One:
^US-UK^

This is a great book and these covers are both pretty cool. I know tons of people are quickly falling in love with this book and its covers, but I know there is one I like much more than the other. The US one is really close up. The eyes are really pretty, but I don't like how big the nose is in the shot and the tear kinda looks weird. The UK one is beautiful. I love the darkness of it and the model is striking. I love the decor around the model and the font is really pretty. 
Winner: UK

Round Two:
^US-UK^

Wow. Both covers are really pretty and really different. They both say so much. They both also have red as the main color scheme. The US one is really, really red. The model is kinda awkward looking, is she dancing by herself? Her dress is really pretty and red. The font is cool, though. I love the UK cover! I'm not so crazy about the "Twilight fans will love it" quote, but I love everything else about it. I love how she is screaming like a banshee... but she does kinda look like a vampire.
Winner: UK

Round Three:
^US-UK^

Both of these covers are pretty similar, but also pretty different. I like the orange and they both look pretty sci-fi. The US one is really plain. It's basically orange with bold font. It kinda looks like the circle thing is one of those eco-friendly lightbulbs. The UK one is also pretty simple, but does have more. I like the stars and the circle thing is much better looking in this one.
Winner: UK

  1. See, I LOVE the US cover of Infinite Days, and I prefer the US cover of I Am Number Four. The UK cover of MSTS kicks ass, though.

  2. I'll bite.

    Agree with you on Infinite Days and My Soul. Screaming covers are great!

    Disagree on I am Number Four though. I think the UK one looks too much like a rose.

    Thanks for doing this for me. Great choices.

  4. I think UK, US, UK. On the second one I find her open mouth sort of disturbing--so much so I prefer the other one. :P

    I really don't like the US covers for the Soul Screamer series. When I saw the UK ones I was really impressed!

    I really don't like the UK Infinite Days cover at all. Would never catch my eye on the shelf.
