UK vs THE WORLD (62)

UK vs. The world is a weekly meme I made up lol.

It's simlair to UK vs. US except the UK covers are battling it out with their foreign counterparts from all over the world, because who doesn't love judging books by their covers!

UK                          vs                 Germany

All these things I've done by Gabrielle Zevin

Birthright book one

(I couldn't find an exact translation for 'Bitterzart,' but I think it loosely means 'Bitter sweet.'

Mist: I don't like the German cover at all, it looks like an old food label or something, not a book cover lol It's totally dated and other than telling me the book is set in New york because of the skyline, it tells me little else. The UK cover on the other had is so edgy, literally, I love the straight lines of her hair and profile and the city in the background, its a clear winner this week.

Ninfa: Okay, I won't even go too much into detail here. This is a UK win hands down. I really don't like the German cover I'm afraid. The colours are a bit too garish and it feels very dated.
I like the contrast between the model on the UK cover and the blurry skyline in the background, and the two colours of the title font really make it stand out, especially the splash of red. I like the model's pensive expression, as if she's really thinking about the things she has done (see what I did there? lol). So yeah, UK wins :)

Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevin

('En Otro Lugar' translates to 'In another place.' - According to Google translate.)

Mist: Both of these covers are nice and have a different feel, I really like the pink jacket on the Spanish cover and the cloud with the wings in fun, the UK cover is more thoughtful and gives the book a more serious tone, but since I've noot read it I don't know which suits it the best but I personally prefer the Spanish cover.

Ninfa: Both covers are lovely.
 The UK cover has a lovely and nostalgic quality to it. The horizon over the beach, the girl lost in her thoughts, it's very atmospheric.
 The Spanish version is a little girlier I think, and has the cute cloud with angel wings as well. The look in the girl's eyes seems more determined, as if instead of lost, she actually is purposely going towards somewhere new.
 I think I'll give this one to Spain. Spain wins :)
