    Books with actual people on the cover tend to look more tacky, or even uglier I find

    • @potatolover228
      @potatolover228 7 ปีที่แล้ว +33

      I agree. I also like to imagine the characters myself.

    • @giulibarone3
      @giulibarone3 7 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      PotatoLover22 yesss, the people on the cover kinda kill that, especially when they don't even match the character's description

    • @peddlingpages9065
      @peddlingpages9065 7 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      I agree! I do not gravitate towards books with actual people on their covers. I prefer them to be more artistic.

    @revelhilary 7 ปีที่แล้ว +106

    i hate real people on covers, i'm ok with illustrations of people but if that can be avoided too i prefer it, but if it has a picture of people the graphic designer in me dies a little on the inside

    Does anyone else hate when paperbacks have the short cover and show a strip of the colour on the second page? lol.

    • @julianvargas3939
      @julianvargas3939 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Jovana Fung Yesss!!!! My paperback copy of Passenger is like that, and it irritates me.

    • @folklorevermore13
      @folklorevermore13 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Jovana Fung why do people hate them?

    • @rosaliel3878
      @rosaliel3878 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      Yaryna personally I hate them cause I tend to mess up the cover and it ends up tearing

    • @SummerDreamMSV
      @SummerDreamMSV 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Jovana Fung yes. And when they have cut outs on the front. Something ALWAYS ends up getting torn.

    • @LindsayPuckett
      @LindsayPuckett 7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I will not buy a book with that. I absolutely hate it. The front cover never stays flat!

  • @HaileyinBookland
    @HaileyinBookland  7 ปีที่แล้ว +33

    Just a note: I'm counting the that paperbacks have a different cover than the hardcovers as a cover change, since it is one of sorts ☺️
    P.S. In case you couldn't tell, the new covers are always on the left while the old ones are on the right.

  • @Jazzy-l7p
    @Jazzy-l7p 7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    I love the Grisha trilogy cover changes. The new covers re-sparked my interest in reading the series.

  • @caitlinb8405
    @caitlinb8405 7 ปีที่แล้ว +34

    You remind me of Nina from Six of Crows. You would be great!! :)

  • @alannasama777
    @alannasama777 7 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I actually like both covers for the Grisha trilogy. I can't pick on them!

  • @sarinac8468
    @sarinac8468 7 ปีที่แล้ว +27

    The new Rebel of the Sands book cover is SO bleh, it looks like a self-designed e-book cover - previous cover FTW

  • @ALilSquish
    @ALilSquish 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Oh my gosh, I love Noughts and Crosses with all my heart and I'm so happy to finally see someone mention it ❤ it's the first contemporary series I ever read and I found it through a book club at school when I was about 13 (I think) and it's just incredible.
    However, in regards to covers, I much prefer the first one, or at least the first one in the UK 'cause the one you showed was actually the second one released in the UK 😂 the cover design is exactly the same but the first one is purely black and white, which is just really simplistic and aesthetically pleasing to me and it fits the story perfectly.

  • @irenetyler5773
    @irenetyler5773 7 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    Cinda Williams Chima has always had books produced in the style of the old "Flamecaster" look since before Divergent came out with her fist book The Demon King.

  • @BernasBookishAdventures
    @BernasBookishAdventures 7 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I really like your "cover" videos :) I mostly agree with your thoughts and preferences about the covers.

  • @harasnicole
    @harasnicole 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I found myself nodding along with your choices, with the exception of maybe one or two (The Legacy of Kings, I think is the title, and Something Strange & Deadly, I chose both old covers). I almost disagreed about the Shadow & Bone trilogy, but then you mentioned how the animals on the covers match the ones featured in each book, I had to agree. I've only read the first book, but the white stag on the new cover fits it so well.

  • @A88-p5e
    @A88-p5e 7 ปีที่แล้ว +25

    Omg I was getting a little confused cause new was on the left like it was in the past ahhh

  • @kaitlynabshire4573
    @kaitlynabshire4573 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I am OBSESSED with the new Grisha Trilogy covers! I wasn't sure if I wanted to read that series, but when I saw the new covers, I decided to add them to my TBR!

    • @Chickadee0603
      @Chickadee0603 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I felt exactly the same xD I might read the series now that I like the new covers. That sounds very shallow ^^;

  • @BrewsandReviews
    @BrewsandReviews 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Although I like the look of the new Noughts and Crosses cover more, I feel like the old one actually conveys the message of the story a little bit better.

  • @dauntlessobrien
    @dauntlessobrien 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    you should definitely read noughts and crosses. personally i love the old cover because I feel like it captures the story more but it's a really good book.

  • @AlyssaReids
    @AlyssaReids 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    It's so funny how a book cover can draw you in or turn you off. Some of the books you reviewed I had no desire to read, but seeing the changes made me rethink. And vice versa.

  • @LilacDaisy2
    @LilacDaisy2 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Love the spines of the pastel/pretty pink books behind you. There's so few pink books in the world.

  • @marythewinter
    @marythewinter 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    The old one of Rebel of the Sands is indeed so much more prettier, I hope the third book will have that same cover style...

  • @happyelephantbooks8803
    @happyelephantbooks8803 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Rebel of the Sands has a new cover before book 3 comes out? I hate when publishers do that!

    • @sarah1045
      @sarah1045 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      They're actually publishing two sets of covers for all three! The UK covers all match the original blue one. They just released a photo of the cover of the third book and it's really pretty :)

    @BexnBookx 7 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I NEED THOSE NEW GRISHA COVERS... They are so beautiful. I am still secretly pissed because of the Rebel of the Sands change! I purchased the hardcover which cost a fortune in Australia because it was so beautiful... then the Traitor to the Throne doesn't match and it hurts my heart a little hahaha.

  • @rachelbelanger2708
    @rachelbelanger2708 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think Cinda William's Chima's books have always had covers styled like the old ones. Her first one was published before Divergent :)

  • @nielscauwel1615
    @nielscauwel1615 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Great video! :) Just a tip for the next time: I didn't always know which the new covers were XD (for the ones that you didn't have physically), so maybe just make that more clear :).

  • @Cirrown
    @Cirrown 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    i agree with "carry on". i like the new one better so i hope i'll get polish translation with this cover since i already have english version with old cover. i saw the new one day after i ordered old one and couldn't change my order

    @CassiesBookishCorner 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I read Salt to the Sea and it tore out my heart! I cried. It was so good though because of how it was based on an historical event. I like the original cover best. It portrays the boat and water and their mission while the shoes follows a quote stated several times.

  • @BookRoast
    @BookRoast 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I actually love the new Salt to the Sea cover for the shoe maker guy!

  • @ABASAHPURPLE11
    @ABASAHPURPLE11 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @royami8627 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I'm glad you talked about the Grisha trilogy as I never see anyone mention them ! I kind of prefer the original one as I think the font is more unique, but I'm not a big fan of either. I love the purple color though

  • @joyahawkrose3984
    @joyahawkrose3984 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The thing about the old Flamecaster cover is the fact that it fits with all of Cinda's old books. I personally prefer the old cover but oh well

  • @IfThisWasANovel
    @IfThisWasANovel 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The three animals are on the original Grisha books too, it's just more subtle.

  • @mmmcookies8814
    @mmmcookies8814 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    I LOVE BOOK COVER VIDEOS!!! Here are my votes:
    Grisha Trilogy - new covers
    Carry On - 100% new cover
    Rebel of the Sands - old cover (but definitely new cover for the sequel)
    More Happy than Not - new cover (I hate yellow)
    Salt to the Sea - tie
    The Dark Days Club - old cover (the new one looks like a cheesy romance novel)
    The Unexpected Everything - old cover
    The Summer I Turned Pretty - new cover
    Something Strange and Deadly - old cover
    Noughts & Crosses - new cover
    The Museum of Heartbreak - new cover
    The Museum of Intangible Things - old cover
    Legacy of Kings - new cover
    Flamecaster - new cover

  • @catherineduke3235
    @catherineduke3235 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    The original Grisha books have the animal on each of the covers too. Smaller and at the top. Although your copy of Shadow and Bone is missing the stag horns that are on the grey cover.

  • @kazzified29
    @kazzified29 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    As part of a portfolio that I put together, I actually re-designed Shadow & Bone and focused more on the animal amplifier.

    I don't like both of the "The summer I turned pretty" covers because I think the german one is prettier. The old cover may fit better to the story but it's not really mine.
    The german title is "Der Sommer, als ich schön wurde" if you want to take a look. :)

    I haven't read any single books shown in this video but mostly I prefer the old covers. By the way Hails just want you to know that I'm going to read ACOTAR trilogy, Throne of Glass and Six of Crows because you mentioned them multiple times on your channel. I hope I can enjoy them as much as you do. Thank you!

  • @wormdoodles
    @wormdoodles 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    You know, normally I prefer older covers. Maybe it's just my hatred of change, but idk. I would say my least favorite cover changes are probably from the Unwind series and Alex Flynn's Breathing Underwater. My favorite cover change, however, probably belongs to either the shadow box Nabokov covers or the one for A Constellation of Vital Phenomena by Anthony Marra.

  • @ashleykbarks
    @ashleykbarks 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I got the Grisha trilogy during the holidays on sale. BN had a 20% off coupon off of one item. Best tip for that sort of thing is to purchase BOXED SETS, because then you technically get 20% off all the books in that box... And guaranteed, they already discounted the price of the books in the box compared to the individual books. So I'm not going to buy the new covers since I already got a good deal on them anyway.

    I just finished Knife's Edge. For some reason I didn't realise it was a sequel to noughts and crosses, but I read that a while ago and everything made sense. It was really good, but I also was unaware it was part of a trilogy - so I'll have to get that too.

  • @booksandteawithsarah1459
    @booksandteawithsarah1459 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    The new covers for the Grisha Trilogy are so pretty! But I don't typically like glossy covers. The thing about comparing Chima's covers to Divergent, is that Chima published first. The Warrior Heir was published in 2006, which you could argue is very different, and thus not comparable to the Divergent covers, but the publisher continued featuring the single item on the cover through the rest of the series, and the Seven Realms series is the first book that looks a lot like Divergent. But Seven Realms was still published first, in 2009, so I don't think the argument of looking too much like Divergent is really fair for Chima's book covers.

    • @HaileyinBookland

    • @booksandteawithsarah1459
      @booksandteawithsarah1459 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Of course! I feel like that came across kind of brash on my part and I apologize for that. I absolutely didn't mean it that way. I just thought it was interesting that Chima's books were actually published first, yet because Divergent was so much bigger, a lot of others probably think that Chima's covers are a rip off of Divergent, especially since Chima's new covers are absolutely a rip off of ToG.
