Then I remember I should stand behind the velvet ropes.

(I need to know what they’ll look like on my shelves, this is very important.)

I do like them as a range, but I wish they were all just a teeeeeeeeny bit simpler. All of them have 3-4 elements going on, and I kind of wish they’d drop just one… more iconic, etc. etc.

Whatever. I’m nitpicking. They’re good covers.

I know they say to never judge a book by its cover, but these new designs have immediately added Aegypt & The Dragon Griaule to my TBR pile.

I do see how OSIRIS would remind you of this book, if this is functionally similar to Bridesicles.

It reminded me of it in some ways. I couldn’t articulate how though so I didn’t mention it in the review.
