Friday Face Off (3)

Occasionally, you'll come across two books with rather similar covers. Whether it's completely coincidental, a sign of trends, or a blatant case of biteritus, the question remains:
who did it better?

Ghostgirl published August 1st, 2008
Virago Book of Ghost Stories published October 1st, 2006


Last week on Friday Face Off: The Friday House and Sight went head-to-head, and the results were: A TIE!  I guess that means its up to me to break it, so...though the colors in The Friday House are a nice touch, I love the simplicity/slight gross-out factor of Sight, and the offset placement of the eye.  SIGHT wins by an eyelash!


Have you seen any cover-twins? Comment with the titles!

  2. It's official! Ghostgirl gets my vote as well. The copy at my library has shiny silver-edged paper.
