This could be a good cover, if the woman were more solid, although having the tag line, “A storm is coming” would suggest using dark clouds and lightning in the background rather than the waves.

I notice this book has a new cover on Amazon already; it’s half-decent too.
The new one looks more professional, but rather bland and not very stormy. This one would have been perfectly OK if the woman wasn’t translucent and with a better font.
Looking at the reviews, someone has quoted “The steel of the knife which Beth held, twisting it menacingly around in her hand, glimmered…..Frozen with fear, there seemed nothing Laura could do…”
WTF DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?! If this is how grammar works in an excerpt that someone presumably sees as worthy to include in a positive review, what is the rest like?

Looks like Hermione got the invisibility spell only half right.

That is a really unattractive effect. Makes her look like a Gila monster.
The heartbreak of wave face.
A game so deadly it causes you to erode!
Froth Face. Scourge of the seashore.
And what’s up with that ear?

Yep, that is an ugly one.

I think it would have been a much more attractive cover had it been a solid image of the young woman with waves crashing behind her.

A custom font could have dressed it up nicely. More than Arial Bold, anyway…
