From Lillian P: I really like this cover.
Elyse: The blue is gorgeous.
Sarah: I love the hood and how she’s looking at the reader.
Amanda: I’m a sucker for an image within an image.
Shana: The smoke merging with the hair is gorgeous.
Sarah: The tilt of the city scene into the profile of a person is the exact right amount of off-kilter. I love how the profile is pretty still but the image inside is full of movement.
Elyse: This makes me nostalgic for the Gothics from the late 70s and early 80s that I read as a kid.
Cover design by Jack Johnson and Katie Anderson
Sarah: Eye candy! Filigree! And queer colors, too.
Amanda: Yes! It definitely signifies “lush and rich” to me.
Sarah: “Lush” is a very good word.
Amanda: It reminds me of the era of erotica/BDSM covers where it’s just a tie or cufflinks to signify wealth.
