Yeah... I want the Molly trilogy.
You've managed- in our three years together- to kill not only my god, but my father, my brother, and my fiancée. That's kind of like a homicidal hat trick. It's a strange foundation for a relationship.

The most scary one. There was one cover without a hat!

4 if you count the ones with Molly.

In ghost story she is probably still wearing that firemans coat. Not some trendy outfit to show her curves. Something more ragged.. Hungry. Faces bit hollow. Unwashed. She is neglecting her appearances. The cover does not show the rag lady.

Book covers not being entirely accurate about what characters look like happens a fair bit (Harry and hats for example).

I know but they shouldn't be entirely inaccurate either. There are limits.

At least the last Molly cover matches the standard stereotype for women on fantasy novel covers. She's standing in a position that has GOT to be uncomfortable at the very least, but which accentuates her... body structure.

How do you picture her then? Other than without the leather clothing on.

Seriously, I picture her in skinny jeans and a t-shirt, usually with a brown robe. I was just being facetious.

Which picture are you talking about?

The last picture to the right, the way her back is arched and head turned looks very uncomfortable. If you look at the covers of fantasy novels with women on the cover, they usually look to be very uncomfortable, actually.
