It's not ... *bad*. . . . It doesn't match.

*nod* My thoughts exactly.

what it says to me is the line's been cancelled so they opted not to put the time, effort and cash into these covers

*nod* That's likely very true. Bummer, though.

I don't picture Leesh dressed that way. She doesn't wear berets.

And yah, it doesn't match. But maybe people who pick it up will think it's a second edition.

Wow, that's jarring. And makes me sad, as a book buyer. I like having my covers in a series all match if possible. :}

That's actually exactly my problem, too. It's not even from the writer POV on this one. It's, "MY BOOKS WON'T MATCH," and 'my' doesn't compute as 'book I wrote' there.

It's...ah...very different...and wierd compared to the others. Well this isn't saying much that hasn't already been said. That reminds me I need to dig through boxes and boxes of books to refamiliarize myself with our heroine in anticipation of this *funny covered* ones release.
And this will NOT be a book that I judge by its cover. ;-)

It still looks eye-catching. All the best with it.
