The Friday Face-Off is a meme originally created by Books by Proxy and now hosted over at Lynn’s Books. The idea is to compare the different covers of a book with each week being a certain theme.

Happy New Year and welcome to the first Friday Face-Off of 2019! This week is a cover that is fresh – a New Beginnings for a New Year.

I’ve twisted the theme a bit to include “new” as a theme. I’ve selected Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World.

Cover A:

Cover B:

Cover C:

Cover D:

Cover E:

Cover F:

Cover G:

Cover H:

Cover I:

And the winner is… COVER F!

Cover I is a close second for me. Cover F edged it for me though this week. The egg implies fresh, new beginnings but the zipper running along it intrigues and has me wanting to know what lies within.

What are your thoughts? Do you agree with my winner, or does one of the others work better for you? Let me know in the comments!

Next weeks’ theme is a cover from a novel set in the Tudor period: ‘I know I have the body of a weak and feeble woman, but I have the heart and stomach of a king.’
