Mari Jungstedt in the Pink

The Swedish, British and Danish covers of Mari Jungstedt´s fourth crime novel. Do you think her Danish publisher expect male readers to sit around reading such a pink book?

Stieg Larsson Day

American covers 1 + 2, and the first French cover (weird, isn´t it?)

Three Danish covers - conspiracy & playing hide-and-seek, perhaps.

Three Swedish covers. Focus on Lisbeth Salander, rather sinister colours.


And finally, the British ones which imitate the Swedish style to some extent.

For the very interesting Spanish covers, visit Jose´s blog - thank you, Jose, for taking part in the fun!

Book covers: Kerstin Ekman, Blackwater

Which cover do I prefer? Difficult to say, but the white one with the eye in it is certainly the ugliest! The Swedish one in blue and red may be the prettiest one, but the Danish one to the left certainly suits the sinister environment best.
Stay tuned: a review of Blackwater is coming up soon.
