Feature Friday: New Harry Potter UK Covers

Lucky Brits have a newly released set of the Harry Potter series to add to their collections.  I love seeing these different takes on the Potter book covers, though I feel like Harry looks really young in these particular covers.  He's seventeen by the end, shouldn't he look a little older, at least on Deathly Hallows?  I really like how Dumbledore looks on the cover of Half-Blood Prince though.  Almost scarily powerful.  And, I think the dragon looks really cool, though I am partial to dragons.  :)  

What are your thoughts?

  1. Wow! These are so cool! A couple of them are a little spoilerish though.

      I love them too, but I agree that if I hadn't already read the books, some of those images would give away major plot points!

      I'm a little partial to the original covers for sentimental reasons, but if you don't factor nostalgia I think the covers designed by Kazu Kibuishi are my favorites. These are really incredible too, though, so I guess they're all great! :)

    Oh these make me so happy. I adore the coverart. I just finished up with a two week Harry Potter blog series so this is totally helping my withdrawl

    1. Ooh, I'm totally jealous of your two-week Potter blog series! What a spectacular idea. I'm hopping over to your blog right now to check it out. :)
