US Covers
UK Covers
US Covers: These covers are basically the perfect examples of the classic stock photo YA cover. There's nothing to special about these covers. They definitely wouldn't stand out in a crowd. That being said I do like that none of the covers show a face. I love it when I can imagine characters for myself.
UK Covers: These covers are GORGEOUS. They are so artistic and unique and I absolutely love the color schemes especially against the black. It really makes everything pop! You can tell that there was a lot of thought put into these covers especially the way little parts of the story are sprinkled throughout. These are definitely some of the most unique and creative covers I've seen.
So who wins? The UK covers! They're unique and quirky and you can tell that each book is really something special. I get that the US covers are more mainstream and contemporary, but Sarah Dessen books are amazing and they deserve amazing covers, and the UK covers are AMAZING. I would buy the UK versions just for the covers!

I guess I'm just used to the US ones. I love the creativity in the UK ones, though; really cool looking BUT I don't know, again, I guess is just that you get used to certain covers and...just prefer those. This isn't really a helpful comment, sorry! Or maybe it is...I'm rambling and it's 3 AM and you posted Sarah Dessen and I love her and and and I'll shut up, I'll shut up. (laughs)
