I would have picked this book up with this cover before any of the others if I didn't know anything about the book because it was the one that spoke to me. Exactly right. Can't wait to read it--still have to pick up Wild Ride but I have to wait for my budget to get back in sync with my bills after having been off work for almost 5 months... *sigh* Just clicked over here today–been sadly remiss on keeping up on blogs, etc. And I dutifully scrolled through the covers, thought I would get an over view before enlarging any, and the red one with the chair is the one that caught my eye and I thought “this one” before I saw that it was the one you had chosen!

Also I can't stand the ones that look like bad photoshops. If I think I can create it with my lousy photoshop skills then generally I don't want to read the book, it's not fair but it's true. I can't wait to buy Maybe This Time! Hurrah. I love the cover you chose and I also like the one to the right of it with the floating woman and tea cup, it’s good not to see her face.

What else would it be if not a novel? I may be expending too many brain cells on this. I don’t understand why sometimes the cover says “a novel” and sometimes it doesn’t.

I don't know whether I would have liked to be included in such a complicated process - once the book is done, I feel so helpless about it anyway. So maybe my publisher knew this and just kept me informed that they were working on it. Last week I got the publishing catalog, and now it's up on Amazon.de even if we have to wait until February until it's available. I don't mean to brag here since this is YOUR blog, but there were people trying to help me with the title (thanks again, R. and friends!) and I don't know how else to inform them, so I'll just post the link. Nobody is forced to look at it. Translated it's roughly "Moving to Happiness", and that's what it looks like: http://www.amazon.de/Umzug-ins-Glück-Ursula-Schröder/dp/3423212659/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1275034637&sr=1-1 Seems to me that after all that work, you ended up with a good one.

I picked the same one you went with. I picked it over the white background one because I liked the text layout better. Your name was prominent and the title was emphasized by being in the smoke heart which indicated romance. The floating tea cup represents the ghosts. It works. Yeah!
