Nuala, it is a brilliant cover and I am delighted they went with this one. Beautiful calligraphy for the title. You must be so happy! My very best congratulations and wishes for you and all your 'Mother America' stories.
Thanks, Or. s you know it was my favourite of all the designs. I just love it!
Gorgeous! I really like it!
What a way to start a Monday!
Yay!!! It's the favourite cover, I'm delighted for you... WHoop!!
I can't wait to hold it in my hand, to flick through the pages, smell the paper and read the words.
Congratulations pet! x
Wow, gorgeous, it's chillingly beautiful!
Nicely put, Tania. I like that it is creepy and (possible, hopefully) will appeal to women and men.
Kind of creepy but in a very good way - I mean, the doll actually has a sweet face! Makes me sad more than creeps me out. The colours are just beautiful - it's very attractive to look at (can you tell I'm just thinking too much to process!?) Cannot wait to read, and so glad you got the image you were rooting for.
Great cover, very open ended
Thanks, everyone. I am v happy with it. Looking forward to seeing the actual book now :)
Beautiful darkness and sweetness in this cover, Nuala. I love it! And the font is stunning. Really striking and will jump off those shelves.
Terrific cover. Eye-catching and thought provoking. Looking forward to its release even more now.

I think so too, Eimear. Did you see the shadowy little girl off to the left? Love it!
Yes liking this cover, it open to a lot of interpretations.
