I absolutely cannot wait to read Story's End. I love bright colors and fun illustrations, which is probably why MG covers are usually some of my favorites.

I...i"m fairly open when it comes to covers! I'm drawn to striking colour palates though - which doesn't necessarily mean bright colours (it could be black and white!), but ones that contrast each other well and stand out. I also love certain font choices - like Storybound and Story's End, those were reminiscent of classic stroytales but had those fun, hard scalloped edges that told a story within itself.Ashley @ Ashley Loves Bookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16855498046320276658noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2173408054965817352.post-37396081156038362682012-06-21T20:38:03.603-05:002012-06-21T20:38:03.603-05:00I love the colors chosen for the two covers.
