Out with the old, in with the dazzling!

Swapping a book cover isn’t something I take lightly — especially when theoriginal had a touch of iconic flair. But let’s be honest: when that “icon”status mostly benefits a different best-selling book with a similarvibe... well, it might be time for a little reinvention.

Sure, I could bore you with marketing jargon or drone onabout visual trends and product placement. Yawn. But here’s the simple truth: Bellocarodoesn’t need borrowed shine. It’s got its own glow-up coming.

Does the old cover nod to that other famous book? Ofcourse. Was it a copy? Not even close. 


Plenty of indie authors (and a few fromthe Big 5) embraced that Twilight-esque look — dark backgrounds, grayscaledrama, symbolic objects floating in space. It worked for a while. It stillworks in some cases (Tracy Wolff’s Crave series, anyone?).

But readers today have a sharp eye and an even sharperinstinct: if something looks like a knockoff, they’ll scroll right pastit — even if the story inside is anything but.

 

And Bellocaro?

It’s not riding coattails. It’s kicking down doors.

So yes, I’ve given it a brand-new cover — one that’s bold,fresh, and completely its own. Besides, I was running out of space on the oldone to place award badges.

 

Go ahead, take a peek. I think you’ll agree: this new lookisn’t just different. It’s spectacular.
