Excuse me as I go a little YA for a minute.
Bookends bloggers Cindy Dobrez and Lynn Rutan tipped me off to a recent cover similarity that can’t be denied. The gist? You fear what you can’t completely see.
The first cover please…
Possessed by Kate Cann.
Spooky, right? And now, the doppelganger:
The Pickpocket’s Ghost (UK Edition) by Catherine Fisher.
They share a certain hazy shade of ominous, don’t you think? When I looked at these two covers, I was reminded of another image, from a totally different place:
The poster from the remake of Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho.
Side by side by side:
A trend that is sure to rear its obscured head again…
You crack me up. “Rear its obscured head.” I love the addition of the Psycho poster. Perfect.
Travis,
Have you posted the covers of:
GREEN by Laura Peyton Robets
SCARLETT FEVER by Maureen Johnson
Didn’t you do a post of several key covers?
