Book covers: Kerstin Ekman, Blackwater





Weekly Geeks # 5 & Bingo post 7
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.

    I love the first one on top the best.. still sinister but simple and beautiful.

    I like the first one too, with the boat and its sinister shadow.

    I like the one with the boat. This is one of my favorite mysteries!

    The one with the eye would convince me to buy it!

    Having that eye on my bookshelf would creep me out - I'll take the first one!

    I like the first one at the top. The one with the eye gives me the creeps! Yikes!

    While I have no idea what the book is all about, I find the first cover simple yet darkly foreboding so I like it best :)

    I can see you all disagree with me!
    But I am sure it is because you cannot see the Danish cover properly LOL

    And Lightheaded, I am going to tell you what the book is about tomorrow (or perhaps tonight).

    Not knowing anything about this book, I agree with all the others-the top one is very haunting! I look forward to reading your review of the book now.

    I haven't read the book so don't know what it is about. The last one actually draws my attention the most. Look forward to hearing what you have to say about the book.

    I prefer the Danish cover, too. It really captures the mood of the book. Besides, I am used to it since I own this copy and have read it a couple of times....

    The reason why I chose such a big version of the cover this time was to give everybody an opportunity to SEE that the Danish one is certainly the best one :D

    Chris: I think it is everybody´s favourite :)

    Shannon: it is a really sinister thriller.
    On my blog danger and death lurk all the time.
