Yup. The cover that one Amazon reviewer describes as "gloomy . . . like the book."

Oooh! I just ordered this book, and I had no idea that they were changing the cover! So, pretty! Although I must say, I didn't have a problem with the old one, I quite liked it actually. But congratulations! I can't wait to get it!

I think I missed that review :)

I have to say getting to chat with you authors makes one more aware of what one says when writing a critical review. Well sometimes anyway :o
