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 really enjoyed. Delicate Condition by Danielle Valentine. Here are the covers:
My favourite this week:
(I still really like the original cover but I think this one would draw my attention)
Which is your favourite?
Join me next week in highlighting one of your reads with different covers




I definitely appreciate what that third cover is doing in relation to the title, but I think my favourite is the first one 🙂
Yes, I also like the first – it’s the cover I’m most familiar with so I automatically like it.

I actually like this cover more than the original. And I loved this as well, what a great book😁
I naturally like the first because I’m familiar with it but I love that new cover.
Lynn 😀
the one you picked just seems more visceral. It would draw my attention too, but the others are pretty.
Yes, I think you hit the nail on the head.
Lynn 😀
Title wise I think your choice fits perfectly but the flower and vivid green writing of the first cover really catch my eye.
It is a very eye catching cover – the colours in particular.
Lynn 😀
