I like the orange one. It’s clean and sharp and not distracting, and would look good next to other books on my shelf. I’d still read the blue one, though. It’s nice and everything. I just like the other one better.

I’m not going to rationalise why, I just looked at the two and my first reaction was that the Blue one with the hand was far stronger.

Just a thought, maybe you could make something with “hands” your personal type thing for book covers since The Touch has a hand too?

I like the orange cover. It’s cleaner. Catches the eye better because of the color. (My husband is an art director at an advertising company, so I learn all this advertising mumbo-jumbo.) Plus, and take this for what it’s worth, in the blue, it almost seems like the hand is giving us the finger…

I like the blue one. It looks more professional.

I also like the blue one. It attracts at first glance, and you want to look closer. I would find a way to put the pentacle symbol inside the palm of the hand, perhaps with a glowing light emanating . . . just my thoughts . . . the typeset is GREAT! Distinctive and the Lisa Olsen trademark. You recognize the lettering and say, ah–here’s another Olsen book; I like her style, so I’m grabbing another one.

I like the blue one as well. It makes you wonder how the hand and the pentacle are somehow connected. Is that a dead woman? Is it a sleeping woman? Did something horrible happen to her? Was she a witch? Did a witch kill her? These are all questions that might pop into your head. The orange one with just the pentacle seems less personal. If I were to be purchasing a book I am more likely to buy the cover that intrigues me. I look at the cover, then I read the back. Either way this sounds like a fantastic novel!

I like the blue one, but what if you took the orange one and gave it a drapey background like the red one on Mercy instead of the plain orange it has now? That might dress it up a bit, but still keep it simple enough to read easily on a website. I really like the pentacle!

I like the one with the hand. The other one just gives you the witches symbol…the other one sort of tells you that something menacing is going on. Good Luck!
