I looked over the list of Archived polls and didn't see this one, suggested by [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] back when we were on World Crossing.

I like how Mary GrandPré's style has become more sophisticated with each cover. There's such a marked difference between the first cover and the last 3. I chose the cover of GoF as my fave because all the champions are there, flanking a very lively looking Harry. There's a lot of detail packed into that cover, and I also love its muted colors.

This was a tough one for me, because of my Bloomsbury bias. Which is your favorite 'Harry Potter' book cover? (US editions) 464751818

I really much prefer the Bloomsbury covers, so it was really a question of which of the Scholastic covers I disliked the least! In the end, I went for Order of the Phoenix, which also happens to be my favourite book, but I tried to be impartial and just base it on the cover. I liked the sparser nature of this cover and the single colour theme.

I think DH is my favorite of the Scholastic covers. I like the color scheme.

This was tough for me to decide. I finally narrowed it down to SS and COS, which are both colourful and exciting, and went with SS because I liked (or at least disliked less) that picture of Harry better than the one on the CoS cover.
