BOOK NEWS & COVER: The Sugar Queen

51zldyx3rul_sl500_aa240__221w4qs9ns0l_sl500_aa180__2 I can't believe it's taken me so long to read Sarah Addison Allen's debut novel, Garden Spells, but I'm reading and loving it now (and, funnily enough, Helen's reading it too).

I'm glad I finally got around to it because Allen's second book, The Sugar Queen, is out now in the US (7 August in the UK) and I get stressed when authors write books quicker than I can read them (I'm looking at you, Meg Cabot!).

So on the left is the UK cover and the right is the US. Which do you prefer?

BOOK NEWS & COVER: The Sugar Queen - Comments

  • Still preferring the UK version!

  • Hmm. I see what you&#39re saying, Stella, but I&#39m not sure. It seems more atmospheric to me. Plus I think the UK one looks like a YA book.

  • Funnily enough, I&#39ve been finding I much prefer the US book covers of late (which just seem so much more stylish and grown-up than the UK cartoon-y pastel-y ones right now) but this time I don&#39t like the US cover at all. It&#39s reminiscent of a Mills & Boon to me.
