Hey there, fellow readers! I’m back with another Which Cover Wednesday! For those of you who don’t know, Which Cover Wednesday is a weekly meme I host. What happens is that I compare two different covers of a book and give my opinion of which cover looks better. And you can join in on the fun as well! Just leave your thoughts about these covers in the Comments Section below. Speaking of covers, here are our covers for this week:
1. The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han
or
I really like the look of the second cover! I feel as if this cover uses its space more efficiently than the first one, with its blue background and cover art that’s spread out rather than clumped in the middle (like the first cover)…
2. Roar by Cora Carmack (English and German)
or
Love that first cover! I think the first one looks stunning with its background of mountains as well as the model’s positioning in that cover versus the second one. I like how she isn’t facing readers head on, but we get a full body view of her outfit and stance! Plus, I love her dress in the first cover way more than her crown in the second!
3. The Hanging Girl by Eileen Cook
or
To be honest, I actually like the ARC’s cover more than the finished copy’s cover. It’s just that the finished copy’s cover looks kind of generic with the girl on the front, even if they try to make it seem eery with the letters covering her eyes coupled with her hand gestures. But the first cover looks more interesting to me because of its typography and background with the note on what seems to be a tree or an old door…
4. How to Make Out by Brianna R. Shrum (English and French)
or
In this case, I’d choose the second cover. Even though the first and second covers use the same image, I feel as if the second cover uses it better with the different lighting (which looks beautiful, btw), cute typography and those hearts that remind me of a snapchat filter! Overall, it just looks so much prettier than the first cover!
Well, that’s a wrap for this week’s Which Cover Wednesday! Were there any covers that caught your eye? Let me know in the Comments Section below, along with any suggestions or questions you might have for upcoming Which Cover Wednesdays! Have a lovely day, everyone!

Both those covers for the Summer I turned Pretty are better than the ones I have. I must have an old copy where the cover are models and positions very weirdly on it.

I think I’d go with the first one for The Summer I Turned Pretty. I just really like white books and the flowers make it look even better.
Otherwise I think I agree with you on all the others. 😊💛 I love reading these posts!

That’s fair. I like that first cover in comparison to the older one, but I like this newer cover (the second one) even more! 😉

I’d go with the first cover for The Summer I Turned Pretty and for How to Make Out, otherwise I agree with you on the others. =)
I’m new to blogging and book reviewing, and am very impressed by your blog. I was wondering if you had any tips for newbie bloggers and book reviewers.
If you have the time, please check out my blog @breenysbooks. I’d love any feedback. Have a wonderful day.

That’s cool! I liked the first cover of The Summer I Turned Pretty, too, until I saw that second cover! 😉
It’s nice to meet you! You don’t have to be impressed by my blog though; there are way more impressive ones! 😀 I checked out your blog, and I really liked it. The only thing I could say is that there’s a stretch of time between posts, which is okay if that’s what you’re going for. Other than updating regularly, I think you’re doing a really good job so far! Keep having fun in what you’re doing. 🙂

I agree with all of your choices. Especially the last one. Even though they are basically the same image, the second one draws you in with the colours, lighting and font. Greats post!

I was torn about The Hanging Tree, but I think I ultimately chose the first cover for the reasons you mentioned. The first cover looks spookier, and while I do like the typography of the second cover it does seem too generic, especially with the girl, and I’d be more likely to want to read the first one. Love these posts!
