Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to another round of Jacket Knack's Face Off. This month, we've pitted two well known, award winning authors with mixed portfolios against each other. Both Libbra Bray and M. T. Anderson write historical and contemporary fiction for young adults, and short stories too. And they've both won distinguished literary awards and honors for their works.
Let's inspect their YA covers (first edition, hardcover publication) and see what faces show up.
By Libba Bray:
“Here we are, trapped in the amber of the moment. There is no why.”

"Time ripens the substance of a life as the seasons mellow and perfect its fruits. The best apples fall latest and keep longest."
Pinocchio the Vampire Slayer made my day. Extra bonus...my library has a copy. Sweet! Thanks for the heads up.
My pleasure. Vampires and zombies are "where it's at!"
