Living in Germany gives me the perfect opportunity to compare original covers with the ones German publishers choose. Sometimes they're gorgeous, sometimes they make me cringe, but it's always interesting to see different covers for the same novel.
Cover Comparisons is a weekly feature here at Fictional Distraction.

I always liked the seductive and slightly dangerous feeling of the old US cover for Monstrous Beauty, but when I saw the new US version I fell in love with it immediately. I just absolutely love the colors and the mystery it emits. But when I saw the German version in a book store this week (it seems to have been released way before the English version which really confused me at first), I knew which cover is my favorite. The aqua / turquoise color scheme, the really pretty model and the lovely typography in combination with the wonderful textures - I love this cover! Definitely my favorite.
Which version did you vote for? Why?
I'd love to hear your thoughts!
