Cover Wars: I Remember You by Harriet Evans
Posted on Tuesday, April 6th, 2010 by Chloe
When the hardback cover for Harriet Evans’ latest book I RememberYou was released last year (right), I loved it and thought it was quite pretty. However, I’ve just laid my eyes on the paperback version and I LOVE IT!! I think it’s so understated and gorgeous, I’m definitely going to buy a copy as I haven’t read it yet. Which do you prefer? Here’s the synopsis:
“For Tess Tennant, spring brings the promise of a fresh start. She’s moving back to her picture-perfect home town to take up a teaching job. Langford is a place of pretty stone cottages, friendly locals in oak-beamed pubs and of course Adam, her best friend since childhood. But Adam is preoccupied with a new girlfriend, and the past - which Tess thought she’d put behind her - is looming large again.So by the time she has to take her class on a trip to Rome, Tess is feeling reckless. She is swept off her feet by a mysterious stranger, and finds herself falling in love. But her magical Roman Holiday is about to turn into a nightmare…Back in Langford Adam is gone and everything has changed.Tess has to decide, once and for all, where she belongs and with whom.”












Adriana Trigiani’s novel Very Valentine is released in paperback this week (4th February), and has a brand new look too, and is very different from Adriana’s previous covers. Perhaps this will open up the appeal to her books to more readers, and I know I would certainly look twice at this book thanks to the new cover design. I much prefer it to the hardback version (right) and its nice to see publishers realise the cover of a book is becoming more and more important! Which do you prefer?
