The Cover Wars: Room

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 Room by Emma Donoghue. 

The First book is the US version and the Second one is the UK
version.

Tara Says: I like them both so very much and they are very appealing. The UK one is blue, it has a little house and it just makes me want to read it. The US one is simple and yet I feel as if it’s going to be a great book. Just because it’s simple yet eye-catching, and I have seen it so many times, I will go with the US one.
Rea says: Both of these covers are very appealing. They both catch my eye and leave me wanting to crack open the book. This said, I adore the simplicity of the US cover. US for me.
