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 is high on my want to read radar: A Drop of Corruption by Robert Jackson Bennett.
Here are the covers:
My favourite this week:
It’s a difficult choice because I really like both. Which is your favourite?
Join me next week in highlighting one of your reads with different covers.
Books and travelling with Lynn 
i much prefer the second cover.
I love both of them, and the second one is more my cup of tea but the first one is more fitting to the book so choosing one is impossible for me!
It’s definitely a hard choice! I love the colors of the first one, but ultimately I agree with your pick. It’s a little more sinister, which I like😁
I agree for this one, but for The Tainted Cup I prefer the other one!
I actually like the US cover better for this one!
I agree, I prefer the “classic lit” look of that version!
I haven’t read this yet so I can’t judge how well they fit (and I always appreciate covers with details that make sense after reading) buy my favourite is the first one. The colours are so vibrant that it’s impossible to overlook.
