To me, in the first photo the woman stands out more because she is in a white sweater and her legs are natural color. In the last photo, the couple is all in dark colors, and they sort of fade away from sight, overcome by the pale surroundings. The house is the same except for something white to it’s left which is eliminated in the second photo, the only bad thing is it looks sort of like an outhouse or a big sign. Hard to tell. If that could be taken out of the first photo I think that’s the one that would have the most impact. It just looks brighter! Thanks for taking my input, love the books, and that I get a real response from you!

I like the third one. I like the outfit better than the skirt in the second one and I like the fact that they’re connecting on the ice. What someone said about them seeming apprehensive in the first one is right on. Thanks for letting us share our opinions!

I like Option 3 best…I think a deep blue for your name would look best. The colors are a great back drop and I especially like “Noah and Sophie” skating together. Thanks for sharing but the wait is unbearable!!!!

I think that the #2 picture is the best.

I Love Your Books!!!
I like the second option for it’s brighter color, the roof lines of the house seems to fit the setting better.
I like the snow flakes, and the couple in the first option.
I like her sweater in the third option.
Over all my choice would be the third option. Thanks for asking!
When I don’t have one of your new books to enjoy I reread the ones I do have over, and over again.
