I explained the meaning of Kintsugi in my last post. As you can tell by my cover art, it may apply to the government. No spoiler alert, but gold can go two ways. Gold can represent the highest standards of performance; a golden standard, OR, Gold can represent Greed with a capital G.
Please cast your vote for your favorite book cover and, if you wish, give your thoughts on the two choices. All votes and comments should be posted in the comment section on my blog at egnerink.com. Deadline to vote is Friday, January 21st.
COVER 1
COVER 2
I like book cover #2. To me, it says that democracy is fragile and needs to be treated with care and respect or it could shatter. Can’t wait to read this next book in the series.
#2 Living in Minnesota, the second cover depicts the brokenness found at nearly all levels of our State’s government.
I like Cover 1 – it hints at what ‘gold’ is all about yet doesn’t give anything away. I love the mystery.
Hi Su, I like the 1st cover, however, the 2nd cover may be the best one as it depicts greed in the government and how fragile freedom is, especially during these times of unrest, Covid, etc. I have read Souls on Board, Book l, and loved it. I need need to get busy reading the rest. Best of luck, Su, you’re the best!!

I think the colors work together better in the first, but the second definitely depicts the idea that our government is interwoven with greed using the gold analogy.
2
The first is very dignified and I love the MN state capital, but after reading what the book is about, I pick 2!
I like Cover Number One…. where GOLD is prominent in every way!
