He's tired of bright, bold colors on covers and prefers the more understated ones. I can understand because I've seen several covers with bright, bold, slap-you-in-the-face colors, and they make me turn away.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774383554326288663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-5412545679694450432022-08-11T13:22:14.012-07:002022-08-11T13:22:14.012-07:00It's amazing how much difference the chosen fo...It's amazing how much difference the chosen font makes, isn't it?

The UK cover is missing the desert hues of the other two, and had too much flora, with the spikes on the front cactus as well as all the other cacti - almost in neat rows - behind it.Kate L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/17044129739440995201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-67519126376537186342022-08-10T17:49:04.897-07:002022-08-10T17:49:04.897-07:00The third one is the winner for me as well.

Just more pleasing to the eye somehow.Gretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09351923715238237269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-11547669578266598862022-08-10T11:40:11.189-07:002022-08-10T11:40:11.189-07:00Since I read on Kindle, covers in general don'...Since I read on Kindle, covers in general don't mean much to me, but of these three, I really prefer the US/CAN cover.Dorothy Bordershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12441731296027227394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-40991344350120019652022-08-10T10:16:53.696-07:002022-08-10T10:16:53.696-07:00I'm with you!

I think the one that most gets my attention is the AUS/NZ cover, and I think it's because, as you say, it's clean, but attention-getting and appealing. And, yes, that sun popping up - that's what really does it for me.Margot Kinberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08599589137890528065noreply@blogger.com
