So I'm going with the new cover design - it's more <i>eye</i> cathing, hehe.Secretly_Samushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14441898393809173172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2790614306320534072.post-30740042669713389722012-06-19T13:34:31.882-04:002012-06-19T13:34:31.882-04:00I would so pick the abstract one my eyes immediate...I would so pick the abstract one my eyes immediately went to that oneAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08407714302341748434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2790614306320534072.post-20118387003073975412012-06-17T19:11:55.001-04:002012-06-17T19:11:55.001-04:00OH MY GOSH.

The pretty dress, the model who looks ready to take someone out even though her dress is getting in her way, and the shiny silver background is fab. The new cover is creepy and confusing. Why are some of the eyelashes white? Why is Shatter in white and Me in blue? Honestly, I think the new one is incredibly ugly.Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00370486039531015541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2790614306320534072.post-8471789427836198322012-06-15T08:09:57.581-04:002012-06-15T08:09:57.581-04:00i love the one with the eye but the model one fits...i love the one with the eye but the model one fits better for the storyCandyRabbitPrincesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13409667869858277309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2790614306320534072.post-80187627653825092502012-06-15T04:31:04.498-04:002012-06-15T04:31:04.498-04:00I think I prefer the one with the girl.
