Feature and Follow
is a blog hop that was started by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. Each week a different
question is posted by our hosts and we will answer! This is a great opportunity
for bloggers to network and interact. This weeks question is:
Q: Worst cover? What is the worst cover of a book that you've read and loved?.
This is really hard. There have been a lot of so so covers, but I think the one that I felt least portrayed the book is Gone by Michael Grant. The US/Canadian covers don't give any real hint of what is going on inside the book, nor do any of the sequels. I absolutely love the series, and the covers have constantly disappointed me. Especially when the UK covers are so stark and have such a WoW factor - although they don't convey what the books are about either, come to think of it. What do you think? Which do you prefer, UK on left - US on right?
