Behind Her Eyes by Sarah Pinborough:

Mmm, more covers than I realised for this one.  I like the French edition which is the fourth on the first row but my favourite is this one:

I like the black and white tones and there’s a sort of simplicity to this that just really appeals to me.

I’ve completed the fourth month of the SPFBO and will be posting about that shortly.

Hope you’ve all had a great October and that your November is great too.
