Friday Face Off: Dollface by Lindy Ryan

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 comment/link so I can take a look at what you’ve chosen.
This week I’ve chosen a book that I can’t wait to pick up Dollface by Lindy Ryan, an author I’m very much enjoying at the moment. This book has only two covers but wow – they are so different. Take a look:


My favourite:

Don’t get me wrong – I love the dramatically pink cover and the little trail of blood running from the top of the book. But, come on. This blue cover is so retro. I love the font and the colour – plus the descriptions says ‘Barbie meets Scream’ so it also appears totally fitting. Cannot wait.

This week I’ve chosen a book that I’ve just read and loved. I hadn’t realised this had two covers so take a look. Snake-Eater by T Kingfisher:


My favourite:

Originally, I thought this was a very unusual cover but it’s really grown on me! And, it is very fitting for the story here.

This week I’ve chosen a book that is one of my Backlist books and in fact the book I’m hoping to pick up next month. The Turn by Kim Harrison which is apparently #0.1 of the Hollows series. Here are the covers:



My favourite:

I went with the vibrant cover this week. The cover with the ‘eye’ gives me the heebies and the other cover doesn’t really give me a sense of anything in particular about the book. Definitely the first cover makes you think of blood!
