I haven't read this book yet but I really want to. I like both covers. The UK one is so pretty and I love the name name change to Wood Angel the font used is very nice. However, I think I am learning more towards the US one. I love everything about this cover. Especially the image of the girl and cat on the roof over looking the city. I also really like the pattern at the bottom as well.
Winner: US
What do you prefer?
uk as i have that one already and it pretty but the us one is brighter but if i think about it ill end up buying that copy to lol
ReplyDeleteI love the UK cover! I actually think I would have passed right by the US one, I know thats bad. The US one just doesn't grab my attention at all. I probable would not have even thought it was a fantasy book.
ReplyDeleteI love both covers but I'd probably be more likely to buy the US cover, as it's more unique. =^.^=
ReplyDeleteOh and it has a cat on it. That's always a plus.
By far the UK! No offence but l think the US looks old fashioned and not for YA at all (l believe it's a YA book?)
ReplyDeleteUK is so pretty =)
I actually don't mind either of them! They're both pretty in their own way! I love the colours of the US edition and the fairy-like cover of the UK edition! So it's a tie for me!
ReplyDeleteI prefer the UK version thats is the one i would pick off the shelf!
