    There is a pun in the german title of twilight because Bis with one s means Until making the title until twilight or something and biss with two s (bc there’s one a little faded s) means bite so bite at twilight because ya know vamps

    Jesse *earnestly* requesting people to hire him as a neck model was my highlight of the day.
    PS - the covers of the international editions of Twilight has left me even more traumatized than the books itself

      Plot twist. Those covers were to turn people off from reading that book😮

  • @BrebearMckae
    @BrebearMckae Před rokem +4

    The black and white for night circus is important bc everything IN said circus is black and white- and attenders occasionally wear red if they're like super fans. Hence the colors on the covers being mostly those colors.

    I love seeing the different editions from around the world! Finland used the Swedish cover for TFIOS and I was very confused when I saw it the first time, after already having read the book in English 😅

  • @eht367
    @eht367 Před rokem +16

    I actually like the vintage Night Circus with the Jesse triggering font 😂
    Rather than vintage books, it reminds me of vintage cartoons that I used to watch like the animated Pink Panther show.

    I love the unhinged-ness of these videos XD I've yet to read Night Circus (definitely on the TBR), but a lot of these covers make me want to read more, and just collect the pretty covers.
    Also I'm here for the Twilight cover that looks like "Wizard of Oz meets Stephen King" XD
    But dang, Cruel Prince got served some gorgeous covers across the board! Just... these videos are always such a solid reminder of HOW IMPORTANT GOOD COVERS ARE (a rant I could go on forever) XD

    Episode 3! Yay! This series has made me check on Goodreads for covers of other countries' editions of Japanese novels, too!
    It’s another really fun way to enjoy books! 😆💚
    And, glad you like the Japanese edition of TFIOS! I like this cover, too!

  • @ximenaallessandrij.5972

    Here are my suggestions for the next episode:
    1)Any Victoria Schwab book (Bulgarian editions are stunning)
    2) Any Rick Riordan book
    3) Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes (please, roast the Bulgarian edition, because it needs to be roasted) 😅
    5) Any Karen McManus book (especially One of us is Lying)
    That’s all from me 😅😊

    Please say something about the cover changes of Spin the dawn or Six crimson cranes (both by Elizabeth Lim). Some of them are breathtaking, some just hurt my feelings 😅

  • @emmal7510
    @emmal7510 Před rokem +3

    I definitely understand the urge to want that last TFIOS cover. There's something about a truly WTF cover that makes it strangely compelling.
    I'm currently resisting the urge to buy one I saw the other day while browsing Amazon. And it's not anywhere near as bad. (The Master and Margarita, with an incredibly cute cartoony cat on it.)

    @AndiBfishbowlwoman Před rokem +2

    Holy cow, those Twilight covers. I sometimes wonder if reading a book with covers like these have an effect on how the story hits for the reader. Like do they feel like they're reading a sexy or adventurous or thorny book, just based on the cover? 🤔

    Absolutely loved this video . My book slump is an all time high right now so it's great comfort seeing this type of video topic . Never judge a book by its cover but damn those book covers be looking fine❤😂.
    I'm working a lot on my laptop for my assignments so the issue of the perfect font comes up often .😅 I definitely have a few pet peeves in relation to fonts so thank you Jesse for making me feel normal about it❤.
    About the twilight covers ... Honestly Stephanie Meyer 's original cover before the US edition came out represents the state of my preparation for exams 😂😢 and wtf was the last one 😮 i nearly closed my phone because of that .
    The Indonesian covers are winning the game ❤
    Definitely agree , the Arabic edition of TFIOS is a bit spoilery but maybe it's because it's obvious to us who knows the story by heart . The original cover will always be my number one because of the sheer nostalgia. It's such an iconic cover ❤. The Chinese edition and the Japanese edition are my favourite ones too❤.

    The first 2 UK editions, I've never seen in my life and I'm from the UK. I once owned the US edition of Twilight but I own the Vintage Classic The Night Circus with the black white and red theme, with the red spine. It's simple, but I think it's one of the prettiest covers I own. It's gorgeous, as Jesse expressed, and I also think the Vintage Magic cover makes me very uncomfortable. Some of the international covers are very beautiful but some are very strange. The Chinese The Fault in Our Stars cover is gorgeous! However, I was disappointed with the book because I thought I'd cry with how much everyone said it destroyed them, but I just didn't really care all that much which is a shame because I really hoped I'd like it. The Indonesian cover for The Cruel Prince is also beautiful, as is the Russian cover. They're stunning!
    I really love these videos, I always look forward to watching them ❤

    The Swedish cover of TFIOS was actually what made me buy the book and binge read it in like five hours straight. I’d seen the US cover beforehand and that cover hadn’t made me want to pick up the book at all.

  • @xianxian5465
    @xianxian5465 Před rokem +1

    Yes, Indonesian covers are stunning! You should check Indonesian cover of The Poppy War, Once Upon a Broken Heart, Strange the Dreamers, We Hunt the Flame, Renegades, To Kill a Kingdom, These Violent Delights, The Song of Achilles/Circe, Blade Breaker, and newest edition of Rick Riordan's books... they are masterpieces! 😍

  • @devonmunn5728
    @devonmunn5728 Před rokem

    To comment about the Thai cover for Twilight I think it actually fits. The series is somewhat suggestive because of the passionate romance between Bella and Edward but of course not overly sexual because of Stephanie Meyer's Mormon beliefs. To quote Kennie J.D. in one of her videos on one of the later movies "Be a hoe, but make it holy" honestly sums it up pretty well

  • @EoinWalsh
    @EoinWalsh Před rokem +1
