Would you believe that the stock photo (the one of the girl on Leap of Faith) was on CUTB's original cover, but then there was this hiccup with the image of said girl, so I got a new cover (the one you see now).

I love fun-with-stock-photos! I had this seem deja vu experience with 2 books on the Scholastic & Flux lines last spring. Have you seen this website that compare trends in YA jackets?

Good find!!! I saw Cracked Up to Be and thought it looked similar to Generation Dead but that has nothing on Leap of Faith!
