Ingenious! It doesn't even look like a barcode anymore. More cover designers need to do this. I can just imagine the bronze color - it's stunning in the image but with the shimmer? I am in love with everything: the monotone color scheme, the wood grain font of the title, the simple, color block animals and the handwritten font used for the author's name. This is going to the TBR for the cover alone. Your review doesn't hurt either. :) Seriously, it sounds absolutely breathtaking. Thanks again for the review. :DHollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07321758826842457432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3922517209932787954.post-84336863796816028132011-06-09T09:09:19.464+10:002011-06-09T09:09:19.464+10:00It sounds freaking wonderful!

I love the little details in the artwork, the lines going through the title font like wood, and the way it looks on the shelf! Wow.<br /><br />I was wondering whether the no-capital-letters thing was meant to mean something. I read a couple pages and it sounds good. Can't wait to delve into this one! It's fairly short so I probably will soon. :PCasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07568646164849243366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3922517209932787954.post-53319510899367754982011-06-08T11:45:50.095+10:002011-06-08T11:45:50.095+10:00I would love to get this book- to read it and star...I would love to get this book- to read it and stare the cover forever.
