What does it mean to be extraordinary? Phoebe finds herself drawn to Mallory, the strange and secretive new kid in school. Soon the two girls are as close as sisters . . . until Mallory’s magnetic older brother, Ryland, appears. Ryland has an immediate, exciting hold on Phoebe—but a dangerous hold, for she begins to question her feelings about her best friend and, worse, about herself.
Soon she’ll discover the shocking, fantastical truth about Ryland and Mallory, and about an age-old debt they expect Phoebe to pay. Will she be strong enough to resist? Will she be special enough to save herself?

Love both paperback covers. I didn't care for Elixir but the paperback cover conveys the story a bit better than the flower. Extraordinary's paperback cover is much better than the original.

Oh wow. Both of those paperback covers are amazing - my favorite is Elixir. I may just have to read that one now :)

Really love the paperback Everlasting cover but not really sure about the Elixir one...

I feel the opposite. I like the originals better. Especially for Extraordinary because it looks more fairy tale with her crossing the boundary into the forest. I love covers that seem to be in motion. There just an energy that comes out of the picture that makes you want to pick up the book and read it.
I like the hardcovers on both of these books better. There is something about the obscurity of both of them that leaves me wanting more.
Oo the new cover for Elixir is a lot more interesting (and less Georgia O'Keeffe...ahem) than the original. I think I prefer the original cover of Extraordinary though -- it's got a kind of fantastical feel to it. And it's pretty =D
I actually like the paperback versions of both these books better. More contemp.
