bookshelves: to-read

Gah! I can't believe I'm going to have to wait so long for this to be published!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1/20/12 Beep, beep. Back. Up. So there used to be an awesome cover of Cassel and Lila similar to the first two covers posted here and now they're showing the new and, in my opinion, not improved cover?!

If you can't tell, I hate it. It has touches of Art Deco but waaayyyy too much 70s in it for me. Not cool. I hope somewhere that other cover will be available 'cause that's the one I want.

Natasha Agreed. Hate the new covers.


Tracy I hate it too!

Paper i hate the new cover as well, i honestly cannot see how its an improvement.


Jess If you go look at reviews for the first one people were put off by a man in gloves holding a cat, feeling there was implied harm to animals. I'm guessing that's 90% of it.

The second cover got made but was pulled pretty quickly in favor of the new swirls.


message 5: by Kristin (new) - added it

Kristin Really?! I'm an ethical vegan and never once thought about animals being harmed (I actually thought, hmm, lucky cat!). I'm not going to say anything spoilery but anyone who reads the book will know what the deal with it is.

I loved the pulled cover and miss the people on them!
