Friday Face Off: Miss Austen Investigates: A Fortune Most Fatal by Jessica Bull (Miss Austen Investigates #2)

FFO

Today I’m returning to the  Friday Face Off, originally created by Books by Proxy).  I’ve missed these for the past few months and so would like to get back to comparing covers (and hopefully I will be updating this page with a new banner.  This is an opportunity to look at a book of your choice and shine the spotlight on the covers.  Of course this only works for those books that have alternative covers (although sometimes I use this to look at a series of books to choose a favourite). . So, if you have a book that has alternative covers, highlight them and choose your favourite.  If you’re taking part it would be great if you leave a link so I can take a look at what you’ve chosen.

This week I’ve chosen a book that I will be reading very soon. A Fortune Most Fatal by Jessica Bull (Miss Austen Investigates #2)

Here are the covers:

My favourite this week:

Have you read this or the first book in the series (The Hapless Milliner)?  What did you think and which is your favourite?

Join me next week in highlighting one of your reads with different covers.

    I probably would have picked that one as well for the art style!

      Yeah, I mean it’s fairly standard as designs go but it suits the book.

    I definitely agree with your choice this week. I don’t dislike the first one but for some reason its giving me zombie vibes 🤔 I hope you enjoy this.

    • @lynnsbooks's avatar @lynnsbooks

      Yes, exactly, it looks like it’s a horror story for some reason.

    I agree, the 3rd is my favorite too. I also like the second cover.

    I’ve not read or even heard of this series but it sounds fun! I like everything about the pink cover but I also think the hand with the magnifying glass is cool. I joined the Friday Face-off this week 🙂

      TBH i don’t dislike the first cover either – it just feels like it’s for a ghost story or a horror novel some how – probably the dark tones.

        I can see what you mean, and the dark tone makes sense in the context of ‘it’s a dystopia that focuses on a world where bright colour is hard to come by’ but I do wish the colours were less dark too 🙂 Thanks for visiting my post!

    I can’t choose between the first and the last!!

      I know – I did like the first – but it feels a bit ill suited to the style of the book somehow.

      Lynn 😀
