Welcome everyone :) Things may be a little slow at the moment as I am in my last few months of school so I am swamped with work and exams but if you had time to leave a comment it would make my day!

Cover Crazy/ Mouth Watering Monday: Wintergirls


Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson

US

Stunning! It definitely captures the essence of the book for me. What what I have been on people's IMM it is covered in shiny too!

I like:
  • The title font
  • The image.
  • The fact that we only see one eye
  • How symbolic it is
I dislike:
  • The font of "Laurie Halse Anderson"
★★★★1/2

4.5 Stars

UK

I don't even really want to talk about this one. It feels like a cop out. The words are very important but having them as the title didn't appeal to me.

I like:
  • The font of the title.
I dislike:
  • Having the text as the cover
  • not symbolism 
  • the colour scheme (doesn't fit the book at all)

Cover Crazy/Mouth Watering Monday: Across The Universe



US

Isn't it pretty? I love it!

I like:
  • The font. I really love it! (if anyone knows where I can download it, tell me!)
  • The colour scheme. Gorgeous
  • The tagline "What does it take to survive a spaceship fuelled by lies?" How awesome!
  •  The sparkly stars. I like all things shiny!
  • Pretty much everything!
I dislike:
  • NOTHING!
★★★★★

It falls flat for me. Yes it is still gorgeous but with the stars missing it feels a little naked.

Cover Crazy/ Mouth Watering Monday: Jenna & Jonah's Fauxmance








 

I really like this cover. It is cute and fun and speaks true of the novel!

I like:

  • How they use different fonts for their names.
  • The heart shaped clapper (I think that is what it is called)

I don't like:

  • The tagline. It falls a little flat for me.

★★★★

Cover Crazy/Mouth Watering Monday: The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff






US

I instantly loved this cover. it was dark and haunting and creepy, yet beautiful. It is definitely eye-catching and stayed imprinted in my mind for a while after seeing it.

I like:
  • The old fashioned pram. It is gorgeous and brings some beauty to the cover.
  • The knives and scissors hanging over the pram. Very creepy.
  • The font and colour. Very eye-catching!

I don't like:
  • You know what? I have no idea! I do love it but I also know that it is not the best cover I have ever seen. I just have no idea why!


UK

It is just all wrong for me. It makes the book look bad and it just has no relevance.


I like:
  • The font is quite nice. It is raised on the cover and feels nice.
  • The background behind the boy looks eerie.

I don't like:
  • The boy just standing there like he is a model. No relevance. 
  • I cannot pinpoint why I dislike it greatly. It just doesn't work for me.


So which cover do you like best? Do you think they are relevant to the story? Share your thoughts with me!
