For me, I loved the hardcover so much, but I also thought--as some of the comments suggest--that the cherry was a little bit edgy. The daisy is a little more friendly and subtle. But honestly I am happy that I got to have BOTH covers! Thanks for --ahem-- covering them here!Terra Elan McVoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09103885917737228022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13444541.post-43748410090939179082010-02-23T19:57:40.258-06:002010-02-23T19:57:40.258-06:00I think the flower is very YA and much more subtle...I think the flower is very YA and much more subtle, but I'm still more drawn to the hardback. Maybe it's the flowers-are-overdone thing that gets me, but there is something very striking about the hardback.<br /><br />That said, I would've been super embarrassed to read anything with the obvious sexual connotation of a cherry on it in front of my parents, so as a teen, I definitely would've waited for the paperback! :)JESSJORDANhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08915521022827231804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13444541.post-91867460067403716652010-02-23T19:36:42.390-06:002010-02-23T19:36:42.390-06:00Both look too adult-y, but I like the simplicity o...Both look too adult-y, but I like the simplicity of the cherry (hardcover) cover.Bookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12016900109049413411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13444541.post-29948941344159861472010-02-23T15:39:09.328-06:002010-02-23T15:39:09.328-06:00Yeah, I think you're right Alea.

First I thought I liked cherry cover more than the daysie one, but when I read your opinion, I went back to the images and I saw one of petals was gone. That reminds much more of the loss of virginity than a single cherry.<br /><br />However, I stil prefer the cherry cover. Flowers are in a lot of covers, so I think the Hardback one is more original.Tempihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13445909121862368525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13444541.post-16196656040649331222010-02-23T15:37:11.599-06:002010-02-23T15:37:11.599-06:00This is a tough one since they are both nice, But ...This is a tough one since they are both nice, But I like the hardcover a little more.jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03774395413858474513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13444541.post-43019301639494365082010-02-23T13:25:57.932-06:002010-02-23T13:25:57.932-06:00I like the suggestion of the hardback image but I ...I like the suggestion of the hardback image but I like the yellow paperback more.

I like the cherry cover just because it stands a little more distinctly than the flower, though that one definitely fits as well.Kelly Jensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14288216494070095497noreply@blogger.com
