UK Bookcovers- Better?
I always love it when Presenting Lenore does her "German Translations In The Wild" so today when I went to the bookstore here in the Birmingham, I snapped a few covers that stood out to me. I have to say, I prefer the UK covers so far! It's a little blurry - but I really liked the covers for Rachel Caine's Morganville Vampire series . They made me want to snatch up the whole series. I also love the black cover for Maggie Stiefvater's Shiver and the alternate cover for Burned by P.C. and Kristin Cast.

Usually I do like the UK cover better. Occasionally, I lean on the US one. :)
Oh I love the UK Morganville Vampires books...they glow in the dark! So pretty!
I usually love the US covers best but in some cases the UK version (or even French one) is better
I think it depends on the book. For example, I would never even touch the US covers for The Demon's Lexicon and The Demon's Covenant. On the contrary, I love the US versions of The Forest of Hands and Teeth and The Dead-Tossed Waves.
Alex- I totally agree with you on The Demon's Lexicon covers--I almost didn't read there series because of them! And I haven't seen the other versions for The Forest of Hands and Teeth. Must go look.... :)
I have noticed that the cover art for European copies of the books I like are always cooler.
Interesting how similar the Cast covers are - I almost wonder why they have different designs.
I tend to lean towards UK covers. The first that comes to mind is Carrie Ryan's books. I LOVED the UK covers: simple but compelling. I typically don't like photos of people on covers.
I love that cover for Blue Moon. I also prefer that Shiver cover. I love the black, white, and red colour palette.
I love the UK Shiver cover as well as the UK cover of Blue Moon.
