Rea of Rea's Reading and Reviews and I decided to get together to do a weekly meme where we would compare covers of the UK editions of books with those of the US editions.
The aim of this is to just have a bit of fun. We put ourselves in the position where we see both of these books side by side in the bookstore. Which would we choose? Why that one and not the other?
This week, we will be comparing the UK and US covers of Forgotten by Cat Patrick.
Tara Says: They are both very different so to me it just goes on whether I would pick up the US one or the UK one if they were next to each other… I would probably pick up the UK one as it is pretty and I like the fact that one of the girls is in black and white and the other one is in colour. So UK for me :D
Rea says: In all honesty, the US cover doesn’t really appeal to me very much. In contrast, I do like the imagery of the UK cover – of the past in black and white (shrouded in mystery?) and the future in colour (clarity?). UK for me.
The First book is the US version and the Second one is the UK
version.
