While they are, perhaps, more teen friendly, they give *no* insight into the type/genre of the book, the faces are shockingly white against the dark background (and I don't mean in a racial way), and there is no sense of movement, which was an integral part of the characters that are being portrayed. The hair may be moving, but the characters weren't. <br /><br />While I definitely support reissuing the books for a teen audience, especially the teens primed by the "House of Night" series for the Casts' fantastic writing style, I do not think these covers were well done. That is my own personal opinion, to which anyone is more than welcome to disagree.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13291660535079532585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2632611338168133022.post-40607117824316069712009-10-19T17:23:24.289-07:002009-10-19T17:23:24.289-07:00I kind of like the old ones better because they...I kind of like the old ones better because they're more colorful, but the new ones are cool too!Priyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02580889624574099498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2632611338168133022.post-6764472473960157132009-10-19T15:56:44.414-07:002009-10-19T15:56:44.414-07:00I love the new cover it looks much cooler the old ...I love the new cover it looks much cooler the old cover had many thing going on I like simpleDeNiSehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09898623805880145526noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2632611338168133022.post-36663074762847912422009-10-19T15:28:49.192-07:002009-10-19T15:28:49.192-07:00The old covers are fun and give more insight into ...The old covers are fun and give more insight into the world that the books are set it.
