Who Wears it Better in January 2023

It’s time for Who Wears it Better in January 2023 ! In this feature, I look at different book covers used for the same book.  In some cases, the cover is chosen by geography (e.g. North America or UK).  Other times, it’s based on the edition of the book (hardcover, paperback, kindle etc). Where it becomes confusing is when the book is given a completely different title! Just for fun, and because I love talking books, let’s see what different books covers I’ve noticed recently.  You can click on the book covers to read my review of each book when available.  Let’s go!

All Is Bright by RaeAnne Thayne:

I love both of these covers! Both show a beautiful winter scene using colours I’m attracted to. I’m chosing the UK cover because it shows the couple and the man’s wheelchair and feels more romantic.

Falling Stars by Fern Michaels:

There are some similarities between these two covers – each of them use a Christmas ornament. While I like both of those covers, I appreciate that the Hardcover is a bit more colourful and for this reason I am chosing this one.

Promise Me by Jill Mansell:

These two covers are very different from each other. I like both of these covers for their use of colours and whimsy but I am a bit more attracted to the UK and US cover.

A Guide to Being Just Friends by Sophie Sullivan:

These covers are very similar and reminds me of a find the differences between the photos puzzle! The fonts chosen are different. The UK cover has a statement about the book while the US version shows a review. The US version notes it’s a novel. Am I missing anything? Another mystery as to why we even need an alternative cover! I like the UK slightly better because I prefer a statement on the cover to a review.

Without A Trace by Danielle Steel:

Both of these covers are beautiful! I love the colours used and the spray of the water along a rocky shore. I do prefer the Original cover because of the sunset colours. I also think that it feels more like I’m standing on the shore rather than I’m looking down from overhead.
