Fraternal Book Twins (and Triplets)

February 15, 2013 |

Written by: Kelly on February 15, 2013.

Sometimes, I’ll see an image on a book cover and I’ll just know I’ve seen it somewhere else before, on another book. Then when I finally remember the title of the other book and dig up the cover image, I find that it’s…not the same. Close, sure, but the two covers are far from identical twins. Let’s call them fraternal twins instead.

I’ve collected a few of these fraternal twins here. Sometimes, like with the first two examples, the similarities lie not only with the cover images, but with the titles as well.

17 and Gone by Nova Ren Suma and Pretty Girl 13 by Liz Coley

Girl in the doorway seen from behind, hazy image, black border, number in the title…alas, completely different color schemes. But whenever I see one, I always think of the other!

In the After by Demitria Lunetta and After the Snow by S. D. Crockett

The perspective is different in the Crockett title, but other than that, these two look so similar to me. And it doesn’t help that their titles are so similar too.

The Shadow Girl by Jennifer Archer, Pivot Point by Kasie West, and Erasing Time by C. J. Hill
A lot of twins lately, and judging from the way they’re staring each other down on these covers, they don’t seem to like each other much.

Wildwing by Emily Whitman and Hysteria by Megan Miranda
Put these two covers together and you have a complete girl!
Rush by Eve Silver, The Prey by Andrew Fukuda, and Invisibility by Andrea Cremer and David Levithan
I have a feeling someone is going to read the middle as one “Pery” initially and be very confused.

    "In the After" and "After the Snow" make me pause every time I see them because of how similar they look and how similar their titles are.

    Pivot Point is actually about one girl living two possible futures.
