The us cover of a little life is actually a famous photo names "The orgasmic man" it was taken in the 1960's. Basically it's supposed to be a mystery between whether this man is in pain or pleasure. This heavily relates to the books the more u think about it D:

The US version of They Both Die At The End is so much better than the UK. That hourglass situation is too on the nose and has no emotion. The US cover really gives you the vibe of the book. The scythe shadow and the nighttime romantic walk? *chef’s kiss*

[@alxndra1772]

I don't know if this sounds stupid but one thing i really love about Jack's videos is that not all of his books are hardcovers , most of them as we can see are paperbacks . Almost every booktuber possesses an insane amount of hardcovers , limited editions . Most of them don't even BUY paperbacks. It always made me feel kind of bad because most of MY books are paperbacks , i only have 4-5 hardcovers , so it's always refreshing to see more people who have paperbacks ( not saying buying hardcovers is bad though) Thanks for listening to my rant!!

[@themurderbotfeed7688]

I feel u, as a pleb myself, hardbacks are like 10-15€ more expensive than the paperback version (in my country) for that mark up, I might as well get another paperback u know? I have a few hardbacks and even 1 limited edition that my aunt gifted me, but thats about it, I’m always so jelly of all this youtubers getting arcs, special editions and pretty hardcovers

[@jessislistless]

I'm so sorry if you've felt bad about this. Personally, I resort to what is more convenient and fits the aesthetic of my shelf. I also often buy books second hand. Wob has pretty good offers for hardcover copies. In the case where I dislike the cover in any edition, I go digital so it's out of sight. Do what makes you happy and what makes sense to you. Conforming to ideals that make you feel bad, as a person, shouldn't take too much of your headspace.

[@milkcatdog394]

Hardcovers are overrated I’ve always preferred paperbacks bc they are more convenient and hold more character. Hardbacks are unnecessarily bulky, take up so much space on the shelf, also it’s tiresome to hold. Just don’t get the appeal lol

[@user-es7ui5mc1m]

I do prefer the US cover of a little life but I've thought a lot about the UK edition and it's definitely grown on me for a bunch of reasons slight spoilers for a little life below! . . . . . . . . . . . . . I really like how it's kind of like this "keyhole" effect where only part of the building peeks through the white, almost as if it's hiding the life behind it and only showing what it wants others to see (just like jude doesn't tell people about his past). And when you open the book on the insides of the coverpages it shows the whole building, so you need to open the book to see more of it/learn more about the building (and jude). And also, I like to imagine it's Judes apartment or the Lispenard Street apartment and so the fact that you don't see inside (only the outside of the building) shows how it's a safe space where he is hidden from the prying eyes of anyone who looks at the book. I do appreciate the US cover a lot - it represents the themes of the book better in my opinion (how you can't tell whether the man is in pain or pleasure) - but thinking about the UK cover like this felt really cathartic. Also, just generally I am not a fan of real people's faces on covers and I don't particularly love how the picture captures a specific moment in his life (at least we can approximate what age the man on the cover is), when the book spans so much more time. Also the man looks white to me, whereas I always thought Jude was hinted at being somewhat ethnically ambiguous, so I like that the UK cover doesn't specify - we're left in the dark about Jude's looks, just like he is left in the dark about his (ethnic/bio family) background.

[@luisai858]

AAA YES YES A MILLION TIMES YES TO THIS!!!!

[@dianamarcu8939]

ive always loved the us cover and its the one i have, but i agree fully, once i started reading it the man on the cover being white seemed so odd to me. the photo is still so powerful but it sorta negates judes identity with it

[@jessislistless]

I find it interesting the way you grew into the UK edition. In my country, the book was predominantly available as the US version during its initial release. Now, years later, you will usually see the UK version. It leads to the assumption that at this point, so many people have heard or read sections of the book already, so this new edition will be enticing to those who know, what to look for.

I'm always explaining to the label that it's a book not a movie, so it can remove itself from the book as the book is always better. There is also another cover for The Night Circus, which I have. It actually combines the two covers from the UK and US versions. The cover is the UK version mainly, but the people are further apart and in the middle of them is a circular cut out to the first page of the book which has the US cover picture on it. So when you have the book closed the face of the "doll" peers through the hole in the front cover between the man and woman.

[@gosiacal5533]

[@lillymoore8343]

MY JAW DROPPED OMFG THIS DUO IS EVERYTHING

[@_vuch]

A NEW VIDEO YESSSSS Thank you for making my day Never stop shining because it enlights us Sorry for my bad english ✌

[@user-jv1im5pl9z]

the a little life uk cover is actually iconic too as it is the actual apartment from the lispenard street ig ?? anw it’s an amazing, amazing book

[@kate-ne]

Okay but someone needs to do this but compare actual book differences. My friend read the UK version of Beach Read and the ending is NOT the same as the US version 😅

[@isastar940]

what??? how????

[@kate-ne]

@@isastar940 if you Google "Beach Read different endings" there's a Reddit post explaining it!! I don't want to explain here and spoil for someone by accident 😆

[@inespedras9993]

i just need to say that i also dont like when books have the movie cover BUT call me by our name cover is BEAUTIFUL, its just stunning. that is my exception for movie covers.

[@riaraut5311]

My favorite duo after Taylor and Ed for very valid reasons

[@ImAndrea02]

this makes me so happy, you guys are my favorite booktuberss❤️❤️

[@katherinejoshy6541]

The UK covers are have a deeper meaning and reflect the theme of the book while the US is more focused on the appearance and is aesthetically pleasing

[@Moonbane82]

You two together in one video!!! What a great combo!!

[@Dustyspeccs]

I'm literally watching this on the train 😂 should be revising but this is definitely more important 😂😂😂 also UK covers are often better because we don't put as many faces or real people on I don't think which I like... I love the patterned ones the most like the Ariadne cover and the Circe cover

[@fariyaahmed4040]

I never even imagined this collab but wow I needed this

[@danielamagalhaes1203]

The irony: "This is so bad I wanna give you a zero" - proceeds to give 3 points to the UK cover 😂

[@minahilali835]

This collab! Is. Everything. You don't know how excited I got when I saw this.

[@sukhmanjotkaurdhaliwal5449]

I loved the uk cover of little life I mean that spine was soo beautiful But i was intrigued by the US cover as well But i wdnt give up that spine It looks so good on the bookshelf and makes me think about the apartment jude and willem lived in 🥺

[@senewell95]

STOP IT RIGHT NOW IM CRYING I LOVE YOU BOTH SM

[@CharlotteWW13]

The USA cover of a little life is called '0rgasmic man'. I think it perfectly shows how closely related pain and pleasure can be and therefor it's a representation for the story

[@aphroditerr]

As much as I love reading, I love perceiving books in other ways than just the writing so this video was *chef’s kiss*

[@macy5040]

Haven’t even watched the video yet, but UK takes it. I can’t even express how many times I’ve loved a UK book cover and barfed when I saw how much the shipping costs 😂

[@maeveinterligi3682]

The average US book cover beats the UK but the best UK cover beats the best US cover in my opinion

[@vas26]

this duo is what ive been waiting for.!!! luv u two😭😭
