Coveresque feat. The Truth About Forever by Sarah Dessen (US vs. UK vs. German)

Tell me, which The Truth About Forever cover do you like best?  US on the left, we've got the UK cover in the middle and the German one on the right side.The US cover is romantic and dreamy and the German cover is just boring, showing a daily life routine. I like the UK cover best with its little graphical elements creating a cool comic-look cover.

  1. I like the US cover best. Pretty! I tend to like photographs on covers rather than illustrations.

  3. I guess I have two different responses. If I was asked which is the most interesting, I would say the UK one. I think they've done a good job with Sarah's UK covers, in that they're unique colourful and quite beautiful in a way. But despite all that, they don't actually appeal to me all that much personally. I prefer the US one, definitely.

  5. UK! It looks lovely ~ I have that edition (we get them in Australia) after that I like the German.

    The US one bores me actually. would never pick it off the shelf...

  8. Wow, those are all so completely different. I never thought about how different countries would portray books, but there is definitely a difference here. So interesting.

  9. Sarah Dessen is a good writer, creating believable and relatable characters that very adequately reflect what teens are like. My favorite part of the books I've read by her is the dialogue, which, if you examine carefully, is unique to whichever character she's writing about. Sarah creates well-rounded characters. And it's probably her biggest skill.
