This is the cover of the ARC I received (sorry for the bad quality photo - it's from my iPhone). I like how simple it is. It looks like a worn, musty, old book, which adds to the overall feel of the story. And, might I add, I love the font.
This is the cover of the US release. I like how the tree branches create the title. In one side story, a character mentions how trees looked like ghosts to him as a child. The cover may be in reference to that.
This is the cover of the collector's edition. In the book, the twins remember a poem their mother used to recite. The poem described that when birds land in groups, the number means different things. Two means love. In this case, six birds mean death. Optimistic, no?
This is the UK cover. I really like how the cover shows the twins; they're exactly how I pictured them. The book goes into detail about how the girls always dress alike and frequently wear white. Perfect visualization.So which cover do you like best? Although I've previously stated that I like UK covers better most of the time (and I do like this one 2nd best), I think my favorite is the ARC cover! My least favorite is the collector's edition cover - although meaningful, it's not as visually pleasing I suppose.

I think I like the UK cover best! You know me, I judge books by their covers a lot, and that's the cover that makes me want to pick up the book and read it.
I like the last one as well! Wow definitely captured the creepiness. With one looking down and another one looking at the front with all white clothes. Talking about hair in the back of the neck stood up.
I'm not liking the UK cover for some reason. I like the one you have or the blue one. That B/W is hard to read!
I like the UK one best and the blue one second best :-)
I love the second and third covers but maybe that's because I'm used to seeing the UK one now (that's the one I'll be getting over here).
The last one best shows symmetry and doesn't look like it's describing an Edgar Allen Poe novel, so I'll go with that.
I'm with you on the first one Lau. The script is beautiful.
All the covers are great, but I'd go with the ARC cover and the US cover.
I like the blue one the best. I really dislike the birds. You can't even read the title. What were they thinking? I don't like the UK cover because it doesn't let me use my own imagination. I would rather visualize my own set of twins.
Oooh, I like them all. I have the ARC. I've seen the US edition but the UK one with the twins is spooky.
I had a vision of the twins and it is quite similar.
