Cover Crazy is hosted by The Book Worms. Each week, bloggers "admire the art and beauty of a book’s design, so I’m going to post minimal words. It is up to you to write how you feel and what you like about it the way you’d like to."
Why I Love This Cover:
So, okay, I'm pretty sure I posted this cover as a Cover Crazy once before...but that was before I saw the final version in person! There's so much more beyond what we all thought there'd be.
I love the way there's a second cover hiding beneath the dust jacket (much like with DELIRIUM). The hidden cover features an image on the back that's integral to the story. Plus, doesn't it look so much more mysterious this way? This alone makes it clear that this book should only be owned in hardcover (if at all possible)!
All that gold is shiny and beautiful. If I had been born a dragon, it would most certainly be the most prized possession in my treasure hoard!
I posted this cover video alongside my review yesterday, but for anyone who hasn't seen it....THIS is why I'm even more in love with LIESL & PO's design than ever before:

What do you think? What cover are you crazy about this week?
This cover is really cool! It shows the fantasy theme and I really like it. Thanks for stopping by my blog and I actually forgot that I've seen Imaginary Girls cover before!

Hehe you must really love this one to have featured it twice! It's definitely an interesting concept. A cover within a cover...

I just finished this book, and the cover was one of my favorite parts! The surprise of a second truly gorgeous cover underneath the book jacket was lovely! I actually linked to your cover crazy post in my review because I think your video is the closest you can come to appreciating it without having the physical book in your hands! :)
