In Battle of the Book Covers, I pick one book, compile a
bunch of different international covers, and choose my favorite - and I'd love for
you to weigh in, too! (Thank you to Heather at Random Redheaded Ramblings, who put together a list of 25 book blog post ideas, for the inspiration!)
For this edition, I'm checking out the various versions of Beach Read by Emily Henry. I thought a summer vibes cover would be a nice distraction from the winter weather!
2020 US // 2020 Serbian // 2021 Czech
2021 Turkish // 2021 French // 2021 Romanian
2020 German // 2020 Swedish // 2021 Italian
This is a really hard one! I love that there's a good bit of consistency between many of the covers, and the illustrated cover trend (which is a favorite of mine) is really strong for this book. I think my favorite is...
The 2021 Turkish edition! It has the vibe of the original US version, but I like the colors a bit better.
Which one is your favorite?
These are all so pretty but I agree with you on the Turkish one. I really like the Swedish one too.
ReplyDeleteThe Swedish fun is really fun!
DeleteI like all of these! It's cool how they all kept the vibes of the original and didn't do anything weird and random like sometimes happens.
ReplyDeleteExactly!
DeleteI didn't realize there were so many different covers for one book.
ReplyDeleteYes, quite often they change them for international versions!
DeleteSo many international covers! I really like the 2021 Czech one.
ReplyDeleteI like the retro feel of that one!
DeleteI think these are all great. I was drawn to the Swedish cover because it was sort of different.
ReplyDeleteIt does have a different feel from the others!
DeleteI love how covers like thse can sort of take us away from the winter doldrums. :) These are nice. I like the first one.
ReplyDeleteExactly!
DeleteI love all of these covers, especially the Turkish. I think the Italian one is cool in that it reflects Italian beaches and tropical islands-- definitely not where the story took place. You won't find an ocean quite that color in the North East. I like the Czech cover, too!
ReplyDeleteHaha, yeah, that's definitely not a North East US beach!
DeleteAll these are pretty cute, but I think I would have to go with the Turkish edition as well. It has a really nice balance. Funny because I was just recommended this book the other day. Thank you for the reminder.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome, Alicia!
DeleteI agree about the Turkish version! It feels like it perfectly captures the vibe of the book and I love the colors.
ReplyDeleteExactly!
DeleteOoo, this is really fun! I love the colors of the Czech version but the set up of the Turkish cover. Thanks for sharing!!
