I find the title in the first one much more readable--in the second the title is again too crowded. But I like what you did with the subtitle in the second cover--those y's in the first subtitle bothered me for some obscure reason.
Thank you! And thanks to everyone else who has helped me on this thread. I have learned a lot and this will help me so much for not only this book but future ones in the series, too.I think you've nailed it.
