The "New Moon" new book cover (the movie-tie in book cover) has been revealed! Little, Brown seems to be hoping that they'll pull in some new readers with this one, but also hoping that the current fans will all run out and buy second copies of this book... and I admit, I may be sucker enough to do it. (Just joking. Maybe.)

All kidding aside, this is a pretty darn good cover. Kristen Stewart looks amazing, truly a natural beauty with her own kind of seduction. The ever-looming presence of Edward in her mind is obvious here, though he looks a bit creepier than I would have thought. Taylor Lautner looks perfect! Protective, wild, he's really got Jacob Black down pat.

I love that they included the rest of the wolf pack, supporting him, "having his back", however you want to phrase it. They're just as important in this series as he is, if you ask me. (Hello, "Eclipse" would have been rough without them.) I also love that they're standing on a cliff! Oh, so wonderful. As if he's holding her back from jumping off (which we know he metaphorically does, though literally is unsuccessful in that venture) and it's just such a great way to visually describe their relationship. Not to mention, that it actually happens. (For once they're going off of something that occurred in the novels, versus some crazy thing they conjured up around the writer's table - cough field trip cough)

 

So what do you think, readers? Yay or nay? For a book that certainly actually turned some Edward fans into "Team Jacob" the cover seems to be doing a great job illustrating that fact.
