Covers of the World (4)

Hi everyone! Covers of the World is a weekly feature here on A Severe Book Addiction where I showcase the international covers of a book, because everyone loves covers, right?

So this week I'm showing you the various covers of Beautiful Creatures. Here's the US one:

This is one of my absolute favorite covers, simply because it's so gorgeous and unique. I don't think I've ever seen another cover quite like it (except maybe the cover to its sequel, Beautiful Darkness), which is why I love it so much.

Here is the French cover of BC:

It's extremely simple but I love the fact that there are only two colors actually used on the cover. Its simplicity is what makes it so pretty and attention-grabbing. I love the concept of this one - I would definitely pick this one up based on just its cover too.

Here's the Thai cover:

This one really reminds me a lot of the cover of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (the UK version of the cover, anyway) and I actually think they probably drew some inspiration from there. But I like that they have the locket, which is such a central part of the story, on the cover, even though it doesn't look quite like I imagined it.

That's all for this week! Hope you all enjoyed seeing these different covers :)

I'd never seen the other covers before. The US one is definitely one of my favorites. The other two aren't as haunting or beautiful.

Yeah, but the first one is definitely a hard one to beat!
