“She looks beautiful. A nice surprise from Allure. I’ve been quite happy with their cover choices this year. Definitely not predictable as others,” admired A.D.C. right away.

Kokobombon agreed: “I love the image, so powerful – that eyebrow! Too bad the layout takes away from it. What were they thinking? Members from The Cover Challenge thread handle layouts better than this,” she declared.
“The text deserves a special place in hell for ruining an otherwise stunning cover image,” scorned marsnoop2.
