Those ones killed me - the first ones were so much more epic and aesthetically pleasing. OG Son of Neptune beats that boat shot any day. I guess the publisher wants to attract new readers who might not care about Percy in particular. When SoN first dropped, it made sense to have him on the cover - fans started out with him and wanted to know what happened. Now...

I totally agree. The original three Shatter Me covers were absolutely gorgeous. Probably some of my favorites covers ever but the final three are kinda disappointing. Not as bad as a random face slapped on a cover but it doesnt live up to the original.

For fhe final three, I think I my favorite covers were the novellas especially Shadow Me.

You know, I hadn’t seen the neon Hunger Game book covers up until this video. I scrolled through the comments and saw people talking about them and thought “Well it can’t be /that/ bad...” then you showed the covers and I literally GAGGED Who’s idea was that? Why?

I'm super late to the party here, but the OG Artemis Fowl cover isn't what you showed. It was a gold cover with like runes on it or something, not sure how many cover changes it's had but that the one I remember from elementary school.

The Harry Potter book cover that’s my favourite by far is by Webb and Webb designs- it’s very different from all the other ones and I hardly ever see it but it’s the edition I picked up when I first started reading the books and I just like the style of illustrations so much

I went into this hoping you would talk about some cover changes I have thoughts about... and you did!! But... I was so confused because I hadn't seen ANY of those covers, even though I have read some of the series (HP, Percy Jackson, Heroes of Olympus, Lux, Mortal Instruments, Panem...) Then it dawned on me. I am German. We have different covers for every single book you talked about! Makes me wonder how many covers *does* a book get? XD

If I have a book and the cover shows any characters face I have to use tape over them so I can’t see them other wise I will feel that it will change what I think they look like. I also can’t watch he film of the book after reading it if I really enjoy the book as I might want to read it again after and the film will ruin my perspective of the book.

My friend, absolutely read Artemis Fowl!!!!! They are great stories. I'm hooked on them. And speaking of Artemis and book covers, I am not overly fond of the German book covers of the series. I don't think they represent the characters accurately. There's also a book series of Artemis in English that has the character in white and I so much prefer others. There are some very beautiful Artemis Fowl book covers. Also the Shadowhunters cover changes give me life. 😍

i was excited when you mentioned artimes fowl. then you showed the what i considered the new covers. i had the original original cover. Completely gold, silver, etc, with the code lightly surrounding the title that was in the middle of the book cover. i had no idea that a newer version had come out.... now i need to by the others before they get phased out.
