Which Cover? #3

Hi, here is the third post of Which Cover?. It is a monthly post where you can debate which cover you like best.
This month is the book Boys Don't Cry by the brilliant Malorie Blackman. I love this book and she is one of my favourite authors. . .
The red jacket is only exclusive to Waterstones, so that is why you wouldn't usually see it anywhere else.



I love both of these covers. The first one really stants out and all the colours go really well together. I love the back pockets with the bottle and dummy visible, because you can guess what the book it about. The pink font goes well with the white background too. I think the second cover is also gorgous. It is simple yet effective. It goes with her other books too. Like Naughts & Crosses, the two sides are different colours which is a good idea. To be honest, I am tied!   What do you think?

MAY: Gimme A Call, three different covers.

To be honest, I prefer the first one! It's much nicer in real life though, because the pink is luminous.

Thanks for both of your comments :)

I'm not a big fan of the red cover. I love that first cover. I think it stands out more, with the pink and the things hanging out of his back pockets.

That one is really nice :) Thanks Clover!

Hi Zoe! I've had some trouble with the follow button on my blog, but I think I've fixed it now. I've also added the option of having posts sent straight to your email. Thanks for letting me know.

I prefer the red and white edition of Boys Don't Cry but ended up buying the other. That one does tell you more about the story though.
