The US cover features three of the characters in the book, namely Rooney, Pip, and Georgia (and don’t worry if you don’t recognise these names! They aren’t from Heartstopper.).Like Radio Silence, this had the advantage of feeling authentic. The UK cover has little hearts going towards / from Georgia’s palms, which is incredibly fitting for the title. LovelessĪgain, Loveless was first published with the matching pastel cover, so no original cover for us to compare.

We must admit we love the UK edition a bit more because the crowd gives a big contrast to these two characters, and we can never say no to those cheesy taglines. Both covers highlight the main characters brilliantly, namely Angel, who is the no.1 fan of The Ark, and Jimmy, the frontman of the Ark. I Was Born for This was first published in the UK with the matching pastel cover, hence we don’t get to see any older UK edition.

And the US edition is from some years ago, so finger crossed that Alice Oseman will draw a new cover for the US edition soon! Given that the story focuses on Frances and Aled (yes, Aled from Heartstopper) bonding over a podcast, with Frances drawing fan arts and Aled being the voice of it, we are imagining a scene of them sitting in the bedroom surrounded by artworks and scripts. Unlike the other original UK covers that focus on simplistic clip art, the original UK cover is a close up photo of a girl. The original UK cover was not matching the other original ones, and the US one is not matching the other US ones. This is perhaps the most chaotic of them all. This Winter is set when Charlie returned home from the psychiatric ward and struggled to cope with the pressure that Christmas brings so we are imagining a cover of Charlie wearing a paper crown while being surrounded by many family members. It will be released in September this year and we are excited to see what Alice Oseman will draw for the cover. The reason why there are only two covers here is because This Winter has not actually been published in the US. The cover actually stems from an official art, but where Charlie was originally playing Switch, he is now reading I Was Born for This.

The new UK cover features many photos that Nick and Charlie took on Nick’s disposable cameras, which is an important part of the plot. The US cover is similarly interesting. In the same situation as Solitaire, Nick and Charlie was originally published in the UK with a very basic cover until it got updated with the matching cover.
