I was messing around tonight on Amazon when I saw that the cover for Breaking Dawn, the fourth book in the Twilight saga by Stephenie Meyer, is now up
I've really loved all the other covers in this series, but this one is really plain and boring. Maybe the cover doesn't matter as much because they already know it is going to be a bestseller regardless??
It's funny you say that, because I really like it. I think it works with the variety of the other covers and I like the composition of it a lot.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read the series - I tend to get cautious about books getting a lot of hype (I was late reading Harry Potter too) but I bought Twilight today and will fit it into my reading when I can. So I can't say if the covers match the books, but going on the cover alone, yeah, I like it.
Maybe it will grown on me, but my initial reaction was meh!
ReplyDeleteI was pretty surprised by this cover too--it seems so structured, while the others are artistic.
ReplyDeleteAnd it makes me wonder how on earth it can be relevant to the storyline...
That's exactly it - structured vs the artistic covers of the earlier books!
ReplyDeleteI am so curious about this series, I keep seeing people talk about it and I hadn't even heard of it before! I must figure it out, it seems it has a following among the book bloggsters.
ReplyDeleteLove Stephenie Meyer, only read the first 2 so far waiting for the third in PB!
ReplyDeletei absolutely love the cover but i do agree. it's probably because they already know it'd be awesome. It's structured, but i like how the cover still follows the red, black and white scheme. i love chess too so that helps it.
ReplyDeleteactually i thought about it and i like this one better:
