“Life is like a hand of cards’

FFO.jpg

Here we are again with the Friday Face Off meme created by Books by Proxy .   This is a great opportunity to feature some of your favourite book covers.  The rules are fairly simple each week, following a predetermined theme (list below) choose a book, compare a couple of the different covers available for that particular book and choose your favourite.   Future week’s themes are listed below. This week’s theme:

Casino: “Whisky, gambling and Ferraris are better than housework “

It feels like we only just had this theme so coming up with another cover was not easy.  I’ve had to go with a book off my shelves that I haven’t read yet: Sharp Ends by Joe Abercrombie (it was either that or a James Bond book).

And my favourite
