Book Wars a weekly feature hosted between two book review blogs – A Life Bound By Books & Much Loved Books!
It’s a fact that book lovers know all about the covers of the books they covet. Often when a title is released here in the US, it’s sometimes vastly different across the pond in the US. So, Michelle from Much Loved Books and I have come together to create Book Wars to talk about the difference in covers when it comes to the US vs. UK versions.
We hope from time to time authors will chime in with their thoughts as well. We welcome everyone to comment and share their thoughts too! The more the merrier!
Before we get to this weeks Book Wars, we have a winner to announce. The Book Wars winner for Rule (Marked Men #1) By: Jay Crownover is..... the US Cover! Thank you to everyone who voted for both books, and for picking a winner.
Also, there's a poll at the bottom of the post that we'd love to hear your input for the two covers! Tell us which one YOU love the most.

Synopsis: Teresa Hamilton is having a rough year—she’s in love with her big brother’s best friend, but he hasn’t spoken to her since they shared a truly amazing, mind-blowing, change-your-life kiss. She got out of a terrible relationship. And now an injury is threatening to end her dance career for good. It’s time for Plan B – college. And maybe a chance to convince Jase that what they have together is real.
Jase Winstead has a huge secret that he’s not telling anyone. Especially not his best friend’s incredibly beautiful sister. Even though he and Teresa shared the hottest kiss of his life, he knows that his responsibilities must take priority. He certainly doesn’t have time for a relationship. But it doesn’t help that all he can think about kissing the one girl who could ruin everything for him.
As they’re thrown together more and more, Jase and Tess can’t keep denying their feelings for each other. But a familiar danger looms and tragedy strikes. As the campus recovers, the star-crossed couple must decide what they’re willing to risk to be together, and what they’re willing to lose if they’re not…

Lisa I need to admit that Jennifer has some pretty amazing covers and I LOVE both the US and the UK version of this one.
However, this week... there's just something about the UK cover that is just a bit more eye catching and even beautiful when you look at them side by side like this.
It almost looks like she's dancing in the rain and I love it! So without a doubt, this week the UK cover gets my vote. It's just simple but beautiful. Now it's your turn. Click two buttons to cast YOUR vote below!

Michelle This is an easy choice for me. While I do like the USA cover, the UK one gets my vote this week.
I love the effect of the rain and how it looks like she is dancing in it, which is so relevant to the story itself. I also like the rose and the petals falling down.
UK wins this round, now which one wins for you?
