Friday Face Off (5) - Wrap Around Cover


So I'm back with another round of Friday Face Off, hosted by Books by Proxy.

Today's topic is a wrap around cover.


So although this isn't one of my favorite Stephen King books, I did enjoy it and it's the one sitting on my shelf which I immediately thought of when I saw this week's topic.  Now let's visit some different versions!


1.  English Mass Market Paperback (2001)
2. Movie Tie-In (2002)
3.  English (2001)


4. Turkish (2001)
5. German (2001)
6. Ukranian (2016)


7. Spanish (2012)
8. Spanish (2003)
9. Russian (2001)

So we have quite a choice this week and there were even more I found.  I think #9 is very interesting and I like the coloring of #3.  However, I have to admit the one I own is my favorite closely followed by #4.  There's just something horrific about the blood splatters on the dreamcatcher.

Which one is your favorite???

    Oh wow, I think I have that edition of Dreamcatcher but I never realized it was wraparound! I like that one, as well as the 2001 MMPB!

      I was surprised at the variety of covers for this one.

    Your first picture is a really beautiful cover! It is my favourite, followed by the mass market paperback version.

      It is really pretty. I just don't think they worked an actual dreamcatcher into it anywhere.

    I like the eerie feel of #3!

      Yep and I like that they took a different direction with the colors.

    I think my favorite is the wrap around cover, and I don't think I've seen that one before, I love it!

    Ooh that's a good one. I like that version best too, I think. Although the movie tie- in kind of nice too (and I don't usually like movie tie-ins). lol

      Me either but I think it's because they usually put people on the cover and I'm not a fan of people on the cover.

    I love your favourite - I zoomed in and it's such a great picture.
    I had no idea there were so many wrap around covers.

      I don't remember a whole lot about the book and may consider rereading it someday. I do remember pieces of it though.

    Yes, I like your cover best, but oh my... I love the German one because it's titled Duddits. 😍
