Ghost Camp: the cover

I've got a bone to pick with this cover. It illustrates what it's about but it is completely wrong! The campers wear all white and the main characters are two boys. Not a girl. It looks like the illustrator didn't read the book. I know. Silly thing to have a problem with. Well folks now…

Divergent: the cover

The cover of Divergent seems great but it's really just okay. The fire looks fake. I know that's weird to say but it just looks manufactured. Why fire anyway? I guess since everything is going downhill in their world. I mean... a war is coming on? I don't know. It reminds me of The Hung…

Perfect Chemistry: the cover

I've got to hand it to them. One thing really going for this book is the cover. Simone seems to really like the color black because allof her books have black in them! I guess it's like her signature thing. The cover is very nice. I like how now young adult books are mostly having not drawi…
