US VS Germany; Hourglass by Myra McEntire

 Myra McEntire just showed us the german cover for Hourglass, and I instantly liked it, even though If I had to choose I would choose the U.S. one. I was wondering which one would you prefer?

Things I like about the U.S. cover:

• The "defying gravity" quality. Look at her hair!
• The girl they choose; she is blonde as the main character in the story is.
• The purple wallpaper and hard wood floors!!! (Interior Design junkie)
• The font Hourglass is written in.
• Did I mention the girl is freaking defying gravity?!

Things I like about the German cover:

• How white it looks, it's very peaceful and captures your eyes.
• The butterflies flying away!
• The girl's dress; I kind of want it.
• The pose of the girl; plus the girl is very pretty ^^

And even though I like these things about the German cover I still think the U.S. one represents the story better. My eyes still can't look away from those butterflies though...

What about you? Which one do you prefer?
