Entertainment Weekly brings us our first look at the new cover artwork for the trade paperback version of Stephenie Meyer‘s book New Moon which ties in with the release of the movie version of the book The Twilight Saga: New Moon … behold:
Attention Team Jacob: Little, Brown has revealed their cover for the movie tie-in edition of New Moon, which features an exclusive image from the Twilight franchise’s second film. Taylor Lautner fans should certainly pick up more than a few copies (Those arms! That smoldering stare! Remember, he’s only 17!). As for Team Edward…well, at least the image proves that the moon is not, in fact, made of green cheese.
Holy moly! Now that’s the kind of book cover that might inspire the young’ns to pick up a book and start reading. This coverphoto adeptly highlights the focus of New Moon and rightfully puts the character Jacob Black (portrayed by actor Taylor Lautner) front and center with Bella Swan (portrayed by actress Kristen Stewart). I like how Edward Cullen (portrayed by Robert Pattinson) is integrated into the moon (which is normally the symbol of the werewolf). I realize that you cannot always judge a book by its cover … but in this case I think the coverphoto adequately sums up the plot of New Moon. What do y’all think … do you like this book cover?

It looks like the cover of some romance novel haha
god he is hot tho
i think i just drooled a little bit.
NOOOOOOOO! I hate when they ruin books like this.
New Moon is the saddest book of the saga, and i think the pic shows that and is perfect and blablabla, but my Team Edward’s heart knows i would have liked more a pic Edward/Bella, and which is the central couple in the book? Exactly Edward and Bella.
So I think Little Brown is Team Jacob.
xoxo.
what..the..hell..
i dont like it when they use movie posters or whatever as book covers.
nice cheap looking poster. just what i expected.
Whoaaa. LOVE it.
I love it! It totally captures the story.
damn. wow. HOTTT.
I agree with Denise although I get what Roxster is saying. I’m all Team Edward. I don’t like how they have them together like that. Too me it gives first time readers the impression they are together more then they really are. Seems as if little brown is stretching the truth a bit, lol. Go Team Edward :-)
I love this cover. I love how Jacob is protecting her. and in new moon it talks about how she is always wrapping her arms around her mid section ‘trying to hold herself together’. well done to them.
edward looks like a badass in the cover which is very misleading! hehe.
And now I will have to buy ALL the movie tie ins. I was so trying to avoid it, but New Moon all by its lonesome would just seem sad.
Anyone else notice how Edward doesn’t look the same on the Twilight movie cover and now the New Moon book cover as he does in the movie? Why does his face look so angular and strange on these promo pics?
I think the cover does a pretty good job of getting at the ideas in the book, but I’m definitely more of a fan of the original book cover artwork. I always hate it when movies come out of books and they add the covers based on the movies. Like with LOTR, I refused to buy any covers that were based on the movies, but then again, I don’t like when book covers have people on them anyway … unless their drawings like HP!
LOVE it
erm I don’t think it’s a good pic. If Jacob is in love with Bella, he should be looking at her and not the fricking camera. He totally looks like he’s thinking “I’ve made it. I’m a studmuffin.” or something like that. The picture looks like its posed by amateurs. I think Jacob Black was badly casted — Taylor still looks like a kid to me with his baby face and isn’t so cute with his squished together features
Love it Love it LOVE IT!!!
I am proudly Team Jacob and as such LOVELOVELOVE this cover! If only he had his shirt off….
beyond HOT!!!
