SO I probably should have spent longer on this, but this is what I came up with.

Oh wow :D Oh wow, oh wow, (and you guessed it:) Oh wow. It looks splendid, the font you've used is better than what I had in mind if I'm perfectly honest. And... YES! You've spelt my name right! I think I love you right now, I know I said how to spell my name but so many people still get it wrong (even best friends). I think this is a deffinate contender, although you're the only entry so far.
I love the coulors, they're very much what I asked for if a little cold BUT I feel that it works. Oddly enough, the picture you've used is similar to a contraption that crops up in the story itself a number of times.

A huge thank you, love Beth x

The 3 is a little cut off, I don't know if YWS did that when you uploaded it or if it's just like that, just thought I'd point it out, because it's something I did notice. The positioning of the authors name is odd, not quite in the middle, not quite at the bottom. I don't think it gives it much effect, it looks a tad sloppy. I feel like it would look better if it were places at the bottom of the cover. I don't know if it's just some weird optical illusion, or if I can't see tonight, but it looks like the title and the author's name are different colours. The title appears to be a bit more on the grey side. Might look better if it were the same colour. Other than that, the font was a good choice and I really liked the image you used for the background, it's rather intriguing. I do hope this helped!
