Foreign Friday: Maggie Stiefvater in Russian and Lithuanian

Ok so if you've been reading my blog you know that last week I proposed the idea of a new feature, Foreign Fridays. I've decided to just go ahead with it and see what you think. So please, leave a comment and let me know.

For my first Foreign Friday, I'm sharing the Russian and Lithuanian editions of a couple of Maggie Stiefvater's books. Why these? Well first of all it's Maggie Stiefvater! I love her. :) Plus my personal interests lie with the Russian and Lithuanian languages.

Russian edition of Shiver.

Russian edition of Linger.

Lithuanian edition of Shiver.

I always find it interesting to see which publishers/countries keep the cover the same or similar and which ones change it up completely. I love the look of the Russian covers, but they have an entirely different feel to them than the Lithuanian or US cover.

What do you think about these covers or any others you've seen?

And now for some more questions....

Readers: Which authors do you want to see covers for? Which languages are you interested in?

Authors: Do you want your books to be featured on Foreign Fridays? Send me an email at wantmyya at gmail dot com and we'll set it up. :)

You Recommend Wednesday


It's Wednesday again! Time for you to tell me what to read. I'm in a witchy mood, tell me about your favorite witch stories. I don't think I've read too many witch books in YA so I'm open to anything. Come on what should I read?
