Sure, there are plenty of books out there with covers that inaccurately reflect what's between the pages, but the problem with this is that, like you did in your post, people are going to assume that it was a racist move on Bloomsbury's part, because why on earth else would they replace a person of colour with a white person?

I'm not encouraging people to boycott the author or Magic Under Glass, that's a personal decision. As a poc, I can't support it, but I will get it form the library which will still help at least.<br /><br />I'll be linking to MissAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11042352415616854651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2729412516964744005.post-40543124869446120402010-01-19T08:23:11.617+11:002010-01-19T08:23:11.617+11:00Yeah its really sad.Yeah its really sad.Wingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14859917372558109626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2729412516964744005.post-87402490763218589032010-01-18T21:05:06.086+11:002010-01-18T21:05:06.086+11:00Oh, I've never seen it this way.

I know tons of books of which cover doesn't have any connections with the story itself :D Sometimes I think publishers don't even read a story before they release it :)) Anyway, I hope people don't hate this book because of this cover IanIanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08952034431832436150noreply@blogger.com
