Lookalikes 47

Devoured by Amanda Marrone

What I Saw And How I Lied By Judy Blundell

So the lookalike in this case is the cover model! I thought it might be fun to talk about which of their covers we liked better! When I saw the Devoured cover over at The Story Siren's blog, I just about died! The combination of the colors, font and that striking image make one heck of a cover. Doesn't mean I also don't like What I Saw and How I Lied but Devoured really makes an impact, I think the eye contact really makes it.

Which do you prefer?

  4. I like Devoured better because it is more striking and (I realize that this is just me) I'm not that attracted to lipstick and compact. I love the black and yellow-green of the top cover.

  5. The eye contact, colors, composition makes Devoured stand out to me more. But I also like What I Saw and How I Lied. That book's been sitting in my TBR pile for months.

  6. I like the first cover. Looks more attractive to me. The second one seems so dark.

  11. i prefer the What I Saw... cover because it makes me curious to know what she is looking at. the red lipstick and red lips also are eye-catching.

  12. i wonder if the Devoured cover would be more appealing if a RED apple was used instead of the green granny smith one.

  13. Huh. Nice spot! I would never have noticed something as subtle as that. I like the cover of Devoured more. The redness of her lipstick against the blues in the background, and that dress. I never understood what the model on the cover of What I Saw was doing. Sigh.

  17. The back of the Devoured cover is awesome. It has a green apple with red liquid stuff oozing all over it like blood. And I really HATED What I Saw (the cover isn't black enough) so I vote for Devoured.

  18. The first, but I love her hair in the second. :)

  19. I like the top one better. The blue dress, red lips, and yellow just makes her pale skin pop.

  20. I love both covers so much, but I think the first one is really stunning with the face-forward eye contact!

    P.S. I gave you an award here

  21. The Blundell book, hands down! It's subtle, sophisticated and mysterious. Could have been Lauren Bacall posing for that one!

  22. I prefer the cover of What I Saw and How I Lied, although I didn't really like the book.

  23. I like the colors in Devoured as well.

  24. I prefer What I Saw and How I Lied. It's what drew me to the book in the first place (and what a great book!)

  25. OMG I'm loving this lookalike! Those girls are exactly the same! But Devoured is personally my favorite. It's so gorgeous! And I'm sure that girl was on a few of the Clique covers...

  26. Devoured all the way. :) I love the blue. And the, um, guys... *blushes*

  27. I agree with bookworm! She looks exactly like the girl from a few of the Clique covers!
