Question Hi, does anyone else feel like UK/International cover designs are way better than the US ones? I've been meaning to pick up Yesteryear, but I just find the US cover to be much blander, and less pretty than the UK one. Curious what everyone else's thoughts are.

This particular answer yes. I can't speak for a broader thing because my brain doesn't catalogue things this way. I am also blind so it takes extra effort for me to look at things and so I usually go for the blurb off of the title and genre vs a cover. The second cover of this set is significantly better though. I would be offended if the first cover was offered to me instead of the second as an author
