Since November 2009Cover Wars: The Brightest Star in the Sky by Marian Keyes
April 15th, 2010 by Chloe
After the disappointment of the hardback cover for Marian Keyes’ latest release The Brightest Star in the Sky, I’m really in love with the paperback version of it which I’ve just spotted on Amazon! It’s a gorgeous midnight blue colour, and I think it definitely suits the mood of the book, far more than the gold shiny cover they chose for the hardback anyway! Here is the synopsis in case you’ve missed it so far:
“At 66, Star Street in Dublin, someone is watching over the lives of the people living in its flats. But no one is aware of it – yet… One of them is ready to take the plunge and fall in love; another is torn between two very different lovers. For some, secrets they want to stay buried will come to light and for others, the unveiling of those secrets will have tragic consequences. Fate is on its way to Star Street, bringing with it love and tragedy, friendship and heartbreak, and the power to change their lives in the most unexpected of ways…”

I was a bit disappointed in this book, not as good as Marion’s previous books.
I prefer the blue cover!
Definitely the blue one! So much better.
Of these two covers I prefer the blue one. We had a purple cover here.
I don’t think I like this covers, but if I had to choose, it will be the paperback.
Oh no, Stacey is it not? Is that just because all her other books have been amazing? I’ve been looking forward to the paperback coming out for ages, I can’t stand the disappointment if it’s not great
I prefer the blue one - I didn’t like the gold one when I first saw it, but it’s grown on me.
i much prefer the paperback cover, didn’t like the gold cover at all, although the books was good
Hi NewToWritingGirl,
It just didn’t grab me as much as her others. It is good, and if it was the first of her’s u read I’m sure you would really like it, but compared to her others it just lacked a bit. It’s still worth a read tho.
Blue cover much more her style!
I actually really enjoyed it. But I do prefer the blue cover
