  1. In both cases, I prefer the original cover art.

    The 2nd cover of "The Glass Ladder" almost looks like it might be a movie poster for "The War of the Roses"

  2. I prefer the originals, too, particularly Carnival of Love's lady in pink. Dejected? Angry? Bored? I can't decide. She's so mysterious.
