Hello, welcome back to another Book Traveling Thursdays, which a weekly meme created by Cátia @The Girl Who Read Too Much and Danielle @Danielle’s Book Blog. The goal is to share the covers of a book related to that week’s theme, which you can see at the Goodreads group, indicating the original cover, the one of your country, your favorite and least favorite.
This week’s theme is “Halloween is only 2 days away! Choose a book that scared you“. I’m going to go with a different kind of scary, because I don’t read scary books. So, my scary will be of the emotional kind, and for that, nothing more perfect than My Heart and Other Black Holes by Jasmine Warga.
Original COver:
I love this cover so so much. I love the colours and the design, and I wish I owned the hardcover, because that one feels amazing. I do own this version in paperback, which is cool enough I guess.
COVER FROM MY COUNTRY (PORTUGAL) & COVER FROM THE COUNTRY I LIVE IN (SPAIN):
Unfortunately this book is still not out in Portugal, but it is in Spain. I’m not a fan of this cover, although it is definitely not the worst one.
Favorite COVER(s):
I’ve already mention how much I love the original cover, But I really like this new e-book american edition as well… so I’ll share the love.
LEAST FAVORITE COVER(s):
These covers are pretty bad. First comes the Danish, which is just ugly! Then (obviously) the Russian, and I say obviously because I’ve been featuring Russian covers in this section for a while now. This cover is ugly, although it does kind of speaks to the story… And then the Italian cover, which would have been nice if this wasn’t a story about depression and teen suicide.
Wow! There are some really terrible covers out there for this book!
yes, there are 😦
I loved the way you used this week theme 😀 ! Why do Russion covers have to be always terrible? I don’t understand. I was really surprised that I had a Russian cover in my favorites this week
i was so surprised too, it a rare event 😉
I really liked their The Graveyard Book cover but I’m pretty sure that it’s going to be the last time that it’s going to happen XD
i could bet on it 😀 they’re covers are usually pretty terrible 😛
I know. I keep seeing russian covers on the least favorite covers
(where they usually belong…) 😀
I agree 😛
I definitely agree with your least favorite covers; those are pretty bad!
I recently just got this book and can’t wait to read it.
it’s so good 😀 go read it now!!!
I definitely want to try to read it before the year ends!
😉
Oh Russia, hahaha. This one is just really terrible photoshop. I feature Russia quite a lot too, but Spain and Belgium a bit more often I think. This Spanish one is quite pretty though.
you like it? it’s not as bad as the others, though it’s not on my favorite list either 🙂
Yeah I like it, but it’s not better than the original 😀 The original is gorgeous.
agreed 😀
I love you choice! My Heart & Other Black Holes is SOO Sad! I think this book works for the theme because it is scary. Maybe it’s not monster scary but it is emotionally scary. Also, just to know that there are actually sites like the other they found each other on is scary. People feeling the way they do is scary. 😦
Now for the book covers. I think my favorite one is this one: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23301770-my-heart-and-other-black-holes
I agree with the least favorite ones. I think the worst one is the Russian cover. I’m sorry but that one is butt ugly!
I like the UK edition too, but the original is still my favorite 😀
it is scary 😦 , the depth of sadness that we can reach creeps the hell out of me 😦
