Still feeling under the weather, but I wanted to share this:
Magic Under Glass has a new cover. I'm just about to order it online!

YAAAAAY!!! So much better :D. I'm so happy they fix stuff like this.
Ooh that is such a pretty cover! I don't judge books by their covers but I don't hold it against them when they catch my eye :)
Pretty cover! I'm glad they fixed it.
So you're adding it to your stack? ;)
To be honest, I liked the last one - and like the British version - more, but I still think it's a wonderful shift and will sell well, I'm sure.
I'm also very glad Bloomsbury fixed it.
The words inside that book are delicious! I loved every single one! :)
I'll have to check this out.
I hope you get to feeling better soon!
Becca, Julie, I've heard this book was really good, which I thought was a shame--lots of people probably avoided buying it because of the cover "scandal". I felt bad for the author, which is why I'm glad her vision is being represented more clearly in this version.
LOL, Abby, yeah, it's going to be right after I read Beautiful Creatures so that we can talk about it. So that should be in about a year from now. ;) Get ready.
Weronika, I've never seen the British version, and I have to admit the original US cover was eye-catching, if not exactly accurate. I'll have to look that up, thanks!
Elana, you're right as usual--it's what's on the inside that counts! ;)
Tamika, thanks!
If you read it soon, I'd love to hear what you think.
Yay, it represents the character! Hope you feel better soon.
Oh now that's gorgeous! I loved the original, too, but this is much more fitting. Beautiful.
It's beautiful! I'm so glad to see that they finally did it right. Let's hope they learned their lesson (for the SECOND time!)
Oooooh, pretty! Maybe 2 lessons for Bloomsbury will be enough ...
very nice. if I purchase this book it will be to support the author, not so much Bloomsbury. Hopefully they've learned that we can appreciate truth and culture .. I guess we all deserve second chances.
Oh, I've just posted the old cover on my blog - I just won the book. How funny you posted this at the same time! Like the new cover! Can't wait to read it.
Much, much better. I'm so glad they fixed that. I hope they've learned for next time.
