AUS Spanish
French Indonesian
German Polish
Japanese Swedish
I like the original cover, it´s the same for US, UK and Spain, but I prefer the typography in the US cover.
What do you think? Which is your favorite?
oh wow.. some of those were a bit hard to look it! but you are right, the US cover is the best.

It still isn't a favorite, but the US and all of the ones that followed in its footsteps, are definitely the best of the bunch
ReplyDeleteI am not going to lie some of those covers are awful lol! The US is best. <3
ReplyDeleteI think it's interesting that so many of them are the same! I like the French one! Thanks for this great post!
ReplyDeleteSo many nice ones here.
ReplyDeleteI think I'll just comment on each one.
US - This is nice. It looks the most natural to me, and the font is nice.
UK - Why does she look so yellow? And, font on the word "Heist" is small and weird.
AUS - This is a decent cover. Would have been better if she had had the awesome sunglasses.
SPANISH - This is like the lovechild of the US cover and the UK cover. It has the font correct, but the skin coloring is still a bit off.
FRENCH - Not sure if this is trying to pass the book off as an adult mystery book or a teen's first chick-lit book. I like purple background. I don't particularly care for anything else about this cover.
INDONESIAN - I happen to love this cover. It reminds me of the YA book covers of the 80s and 90s that I grew up with and still love.
GERMAN - This is a very nice cover. The art is nice, and the lettering being in white makes it really easy to read against the dark background.
POLISH - Why the different model? And, the shades are wrong! And, the reflections are on the wrong side! Not impressed.
JAPANESE - I am NOT digging this one at all.
SWEDISH - This looks like the cover of a chick lit book aimed at women in their mid-20s or early-30s. I do like it....probably because I *AM* in my early-30s. But, it doesn't seem right for this book.
