Sooooo... I don't like it. Sorry! I do not like this cover at all! I think I actually prefer the other cover, the black one with the title on it? Yeap I do prefer that one. It may be the girl's face, it may be the color. It just looks so weird. Then again, the first few covers for VA wren't that great either.The covers only got good after Spirit Bound.
Nonetheless its written by Richelle Mead so I will read it. Just thank your lucky stars Richelle that you are a great writer, cause I wouldn't buy this cover.
ON the other hand, the half face of the guy is pretty good looking ;)
The cover was revealed at EW's Shelf Life click here and get the full scoop.
UCKY! That black cover with what looked to be silver writing was so much more interesting. The red in this one is weird. Maybe it's supposed to be the color of blood. I wonder why they changed it?
ReplyDeleteBTW I love your blog change! Looks bery different. And definitely better!

I agree the cover is not so great. But I like the red color but the black one was still better. although it makes you wonder who the guy is.... Adrian?????!! Or someone new?!! It is teasing...
ReplyDeleteThe girl is not at all pretty but i kinda like the tattoo on her face...really pretty. The way Bloodlines is written is a complete put me offer but the guy is definitely HOT!!
ReplyDeleteWow. That makes me sad. I have been waiting to see this cover and so very excited that the spinoff was to happen. This diminished my excitement slightly, but am still DYING to get my hands on this thing. Will be at the bookstore the day it comes out.
ReplyDeleteUgh, I really don't like this cover. I thought the other ones were much less...cheesy? I think that's the word I'm looking for.
ReplyDeleteI like it somewhat, but it seems a bit stereotypical. I've seen so many book covers that look exactly like these!
ReplyDeleteI'm not a big fan of it either. But you're right, It's Richelle Mead! How can I not read it?!
ReplyDeleteCouldn't agree with you more!
ReplyDeleteI said much of the same at my blog, no matter how it looks I will read it anyway because Richelle Mead's writing is amazing.
ReplyDeleteThere are a lot of YA book covers I do not enjoy that make me feel almost ashamed to read them. Haha. The Vampire Academy series by her falls into that category.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure I like this. I haven't read any of Richelle Mead's books, so I'm not sure why there seems to be something on the girl's face, but I'm not a fan of that or the background color.
ReplyDeleteThe black cover was better, this one is just blurgh.
ReplyDeleteI think the girl on the cover looks bored, they could have chosen a shot with a bit more emotion or attitude or something.
@pepsivanilla As some say, don't judge a book by it's cover... Richelle Mead is a phenomenal author, her character Rose is by far by favorite YA female.
ReplyDeletenot a big fan of that cover... sad really. I agree the other one is better.
ReplyDeleteIt looks much better than the VA covers :P
ReplyDeleteI love Richelle Mead's Vampire Academy series. So stoked for the spinoff series!
