Freya North's older books have been given a makeover by her publishers, and here are some of the new covers! They fit in with Freya's newer titles including new book Rumours, and I think they are gorgeous! I especially love how all the covers are really bold, and make each book look really individual, even though they all have the same sort of design. I think they'd look gorgeous on my bookshelf too. What do you think of Freya's new covers?

They're lovely. I really liked the old covers but I think the new covers have great flair. :)
ReplyDeleteI prefer the newer ones, but they'd look lovely on someone's shelf, pity I've read them all.
ReplyDeleteI'm particularly finickity about covers - I really think one SHOULD judge a book by its cover because they take a lot of time to get exactly right and they must encapsulate the spirit of the book! When I was an aspiring, unpublished author, I worked freelance as a picture researcher (becoming very opinionated about what I'd have on my own jackets - if my books were ever published!)
ReplyDeleteI absolutely loved my original white covers with the hazy single photographic image. But yes - it was important to update 'the backlist' - and give them the same branding as the newer titles.
Also - I've been busy writing a little piece for each of the 6 which will be included in the new editions - my memories and anecdotes of writing those earlier books which were written in the 1990s... (yes, alright, the last flippin' century!!) (some of them don't contain a single text message!)
Thanks, as ever, to Chick Lit Reviews for your wonderful support

I like it when covers have a theme or feel that connects them. Thumbs up!

hi! I'd just like you to know that some of your blog content are postedhttp://chicklitchloe-blog.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
ReplyDeleteThis person has been stealing blog posts. He has 4 blogs and one of his blogs is like a replica of my blog. I just found it out. Still trying to figure out how to report this person. I think all the posts are yours.This is the URL of his blog http://chicklitchloe-blog.blogspot.com/. Almost like yours. Let me know if it's redirecting you to a different website coz a friend of mine from the US was trying to go to that site but it's redirecting her to netflix. I can send you screenshots of his posts.
Oooh, they're very pretty - remind me a bit of Melanie Rose's covers. That being said, I loved the original covers.
ReplyDeleteI really like them. They're uniformed but all individual too.
