The book description:

3, though maybe you could have your name in black so it stands out more and then matches the colour in the book title. 🙂
Thanks, Dianne!
Of Group 1, #3; of Group 2, #4 followed by #5 and Group 2 over 3. I find I prefer the lighter, less obscure images as jumping out at me more, and your name stands out best in #4. <–Important!
Note: if going for print, I'd reverse Name and Subtitle–In a bookstore, YOU should be the first focus and only the top shows, frequently.
Thanks, Elissa! I hadn’t thought about that for print. I’ll let the designer know.
I like #6 the most.
Thanks, Laura!
Since the title is Into The Black, I’d choose no. 6.
Thanks, Mary!

Thanks, Irene!
#5 is easiest for me to look at.
Thanks, Auntie Janet!
I would pick #4 as it’s more Janey.
She doesn’t like to be flashy and centre of attention (like in #3#5).
But then she doesn’t like to be hidden (like in #1#2#6).
Hope my understanding of the books and Janey helps, but at the end of the day your the only one who truly knows.
Thanks, Catriona! Your insight is valuable!
I like 5 best
Thanks, Maria!
I like #3
Thanks, Sharon!
I like #3 the best because the red dress stands out the most and the model seems to be in more contrast with the setting. The model has a glow about her which seems out of this world.
Thanks, Sunnymay! That’s the one I went with. You can see the final1 version here: https://author.bethbarany.com/2020/04/10/cover-reveal-into-the-black/.
