Yep...I've noticed that a lot more recently. Trends in covers...the half of a face...also, the almost completely white with a small item of some sort in the middle. Kind of like the black and red cover craze right after Twilight blew up. *shakes head*

Kelly said...

I think I could probably add even more covers to this! Definitely a current trend.

Please do Kelly, it would be great to see how many we could get in total.

Patti said...

A few years ago it was all black covers.

Very familiar.I like the old one the best.

It's a trend, but they do look different enough to look... different.

Packaging, that is the trick! I think.

Nina said...

Yes, totally! :)

Lack of idea ...wonder what is inside the books

I love it when they use almost the exact same image with just a tweak or two. Like we wouldn't notice! LOL

Petty, are you familiar with Avis' Similar Covers feature? It is up today on her blog, she reads and reads.

Jenners said...

If you haven't seen it already, you need to check out She Reads and Reads with her similar covers series. It will blow your mind!! She not only has lookalikes, she has "Exactly Alikes." Here is the link: http://shereadsandreads.blogspot.com/

Well when I do a cover---sometimes authors request it look like so&so's cover.

Definitely familiar. Wondering who started it first. He/she would be regretting for not taking a patent right. :-P
