It was a close one but A Thousand Pieces of You managed to prevail and is back to face A Beauty So Beastly by RaShelle Workman.
Two distinct but stunning covers. A Beauty So Beastly's cover is a wonderful new twist on the classical Beauty and the Beast Covers. We have have a girl in a dress but the dress isn't the main focus same goes to the staircase. Instead it's the thorny rose whose vines climb up the stairs and around the model, engulfing her and the building.
A Thousand Pieces of You is another gorgeous cover. It's bright and modern looking, with a nice pallet of colours starting with the pastels and moving on to the radiant reds. I also love the reflection effect with the two different skylines.
Oh gosh, I hadn't seen A Thousand Pieces of You before and it definitely wins my vote. A Beauty So Beastly has all the right components, but it feels... very typical, like the cover designers just went through a list of check boxes (model in an interesting pose? shadow effect? mix of calligraphic and block fonts?). Whereas the colours in the ATPoY, the photos and the sans serif font make it feel effortlessly modern. Love it ^__^
