Friday Face-Off

Friday Face Off: Queen

This is a weekly meme created by Books by Proxy, but kept up by Lynn’s Book Blog.

“Mirror, Mirror on the wall.”

This weeks theme: A cover featuring a queen

My Choice: Spinning Silver

I have read a lot of books with Princesses on the covers but not so many with Queens.

I know Miryem doesn’t look like a queen on the cover of Spinning Silver, but she does marry the Ice King pretty early in the book, and I think it counts!!

Covers:

Del Rey | Macmillan | Penguin

The Macmillan cover looks a little weird with the white border so I looked it up and it looks a lot better as an actual book:

The Del Ray and the Penguin covers are almost identical.  The Penguin is a little lighter and there is a gold bar behind the “S” in Spinning.  I think I like the Penguin Cover a little bit better.  But overall the Macmillan is easily my favorite of the three!

Winner:

Spinning02

Which is your favorite? Do you agree with my choice? Let me know in the comments!!

  1. Yes! I like the Macmillan cover too but I have to say the Penguin one is better than the Del Rey and it resembles closely with the first novel Uprooted. I didn’t like Uprooted, unfortunately. Have a great day!
