1. One of my favourite short story collections of the past few years, Sarah Klassen's Feast of Longing. 
2. The Haunted House, a collection of stories by Dickens, Gaskell, Collins and other Victorian luminaries gathered for the Christmas issue of his magazine.
3. Marthe Jocelyn's How it happened in Peach Hill, a YA novel about a girl living with a professional psychic for a mother -- it was released in paperback last year, with this image on the US cover. (author is local to me and is a wonderful writer, btw)
As you may already know, I'm a bit obsessed with finding similar covers. It's always fun to find more than duplicates!
ReplyDeleteHow funny! I've never seen that before--I wonder how that happens, a stock photo place that all publishers use?
ReplyDeleteavisannschild - yes, you are much better at noting such things than I am :) These ones caught my eye as I've read all three.
ReplyDeleteGentle Reader - yes, I believe it is due to the consolidation of some stock photo companies, and the decreasing $$ publishers have to spend on designers as well. But that is just my uninformed opinion, don't take it for gospel truth.
FYI, I just tried to add you on Library Thing, where I am known as allykat. :)
