I love the cover of North of Beautiful by Justina Chen Headley. It's a nice photo and I like the cropping, plus the compass superimposed over the top is very cool as well. All in all, I think it's great. Props to the designer!The book's not out yet but I read a teaser over at Rimas Book Journal.
From the authors's website:
From behind, you’d think Terra Cooper had it all: she’s tall but not too tall, has a figure to kill for, and boasts naturally blonde hair. But the palm-sized birthmark on her face might as well be her fate map. Everyone in her small, touristy town knows what’s hidden beneath the heavy makeup she’s worn since birth. Sick of being the town oddity and even sicker of her caustic mapmaker of a father, Terra yearns to escape the suffocating grid of her life. And then she nearly runs over an Asian Goth boy, her age…and encounters True Beauty in him…and herself.
Explains the hair in the photo! It's always good when the cover actually relates to the book. This one's out on February 1st... I'm looking forward to it :)

Sounds like a good book! I completely agree... it is so nice when a cover actually has something to do with the book. Sometimes I read a book and re-examine the cover and simply wonder......
ReplyDeleteIt's a great book! I loved it! This cover really does do it justice, it's very pretty. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure the model on this cover is the same one on Garsee's Say the Word, which is pretty funny I think. :D
