Old Books, New Looks {12}

Time again for another round of Old Books, New Looks, where I feature the covers of books that have already been released and their redesigned paperback counterpart! :) Sometimes I like the new better, sometimes I like the old. Here's a few that I've come across lately:

The OLDIES  vs.  The NEWBIES

I like them both, actually. Love the simple original, but the hug and flowery paper is so sweet on the new one! To those who read it, does it fit the story?

I enjoyed the book, but I kind of thought the original cover was a bit cheesy. I like the simple, slightly retro feel of the new one, but I don't actually love either.

 LOL, her face makes me laugh and kind of sets a quirky feel for the story.  The original has a young, almost MG feel to it, so the new one wins for me. 

You definitely get a clearer idea about the story from the original, but the pasted on feel of the girl over the illustration and the sky never quite worked for me. Hm...undecided.

They definitely went with a cool retro feel for the new one, but I really like the girl's profile and the shiny headphones with the bold font over it. 

The original portrayed the kind of sterile, sci-fi chilling story I expect from this one,...the new one is pretty but makes it look more like a beach romance. 

The new cover isn't that different, but why change what was already perfect??


What are your thoughts?? If you've read any of these, do you feel like one cover fits better than the other?
