UK vs US Book Covers #1

Sometimes it is the case that when books are published in different countries there is changed, further it is for the good or bad so I thought it would be nice to compare them. So let's get started...

 Trouble by Non Pratt

          UK                                   vs                                           US

 Trouble                                                                                       Trouble

First off it is good to note that I haven't read this book yet but I do know the basic premise of the story which therefore means that I am just going to base it on the cover. Although I do think the US cover is pretty, this time the winner is UK as it represents the book better. 

 Winner: UK

 Uglies by Scott Westerfield 

             UK                                   vs                                      US
Uglies (Uglies, #1)Uglies (Uglies, #1)                                                                                                         
















Unlike Trouble, I have read this book and I do believe that the Uglies UK book cover does represent the book better than the US book cover. The scalpel is used to represent the ugly transformation and to be honest I don't understand the aim of the US cover.  

 Winner: UK

 Divergent by Veronica Roth

                UK                                   vs                                      US

 Divergent (Divergent, #1)
Divergent (Divergent, #1)

For a change I like the US cover more than the UK cover, I just think it represents the book better than the UK one although the UK cover has the 3 birds representing her family. Also I find the US cover is just prettier than the UK one. 

 Winner: US

 One by Sarah Crossan

                 UK                                   vs                                      US
One
One


 This novel is about conjoined twins and I think that both of them are equally as beautiful but I think for this time, I will have to go with UK. This is due to the typography as it is nicer than the US one and there seems to be a loving relationship by the two one the UK cover. This comes out later this month, I am excited to read it. 

 Winner:UK

 In Bloom by Matthew Crow 

            UK                                    vs                                      US

 In Bloom                                                                                The Brilliant Light of Amber Sunrise

This is one of my favourite books ever and I have to say that I enjoy the UK cover more, I think that it is so pretty, The other cover is just to colourful and I don't understand the name change that much although nothing to do with the cover. Yet again I choose the UK cover. 

 Winner: UK

Book Review: The Great Godden by Meg Rossoff

Reviewing All Of The Books

Earlier this year, I decided that I would review all of the books that I read. For the most part, I definitely have but over the last couple of months it has definitely gone to the wayside but that is because I have been so busy. I wanted to do it because I annoyed myself that I reviewed books years after I read them and I often couldn't remember the plot. Trust me this is still the case, but I have kind of run out of books that I need to review this year which is weird for me. My backlog is getting lower and as I am not reading as much, I genuinely think I might run out. This has never happened before. This is of course quite nice because I think that it creates feelings that are much better than remembering a book from two years ago. Thinking about it at the moment does definitely make it easier as it goes into my head on a computer screen and less memory space is always a good idea. I also do think that sometimes it does take the fun out of it though but there are a lot of benef...
