All I can say is: Joel, Amy, and Barb...you've done it again.
My reactions were:
1. Ooh.
2. THE TREE IS AWESOME.
3. Look, a train!
And then, when I was capable of coherent thought, I was able to appreciate the color of the clouds (which are that greenish color you get right before a storm hits-- appropriate, I think), and the fact that the tree is sort of mid-decay, with the leaves swirling away from it, and also, that little line above my name that is so very nice to see.
A few questions answered:
1. Is that tree thing the symbol of Amity? Yes.
2. What happens in the book? You'll find out soon enough.
3. When does it come out? May, 2012.
4. Can I get an ARC? You can request one, but not from me, because I'm not the one who decides where the ARCs go. I will provide you with an e-mail address to send your request to as soon as I have it. (I will put it in the FAQs and at the bottom of this post.)
5. Do you like the cover? Are you kidding? YES. And I am excited for you to read what will be behind it.
Thanks to those of you who have shared in my cover!excitement already!
I can't get over the cover! It is absolutely beautiful. The tree looks just incredible, I love the swirling leaves.
ReplyDeleteI am so excited to read Insurgent! Can't wait :)
the cover is gorgeous and I can NOT wait.
ReplyDeletethank you for writing an awesome story :)
I love this cover. It is simply stunning. <3 And it fits so well with Divergent :)
ReplyDeleteI can not wait to read Insurgent. Divergent is still my favorite book of all time, and I doubt that will change. But Insurgent may be better :) Oh, I want an ARC so bad.. Damn it, if only I were a blogger and not just your biggest fan :\ Life is unfair.
Love, Carina
I've got a bit of a thing about forests, trees of all sorts alive and dead, so this cover did it for me! Well done to the designer, and well done to you for your success!
ReplyDeleteYou deserve it!
The first thing I noticed about the cover was the clouds and the yellowish/greenish tint they have and then BAM that tree. It is so gorgeous I can't stop staring at it.
ReplyDeleteStunning! This is going to look so good on my shelf! Can not wait!
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous. I can totally see that tree as a pin/brooch; jewelry designers get on that! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd the symbol of Amity "the tree is sort of mid-decay" - this is worrisome; like 'oh no, what's gonna happen?!'
Looking forward to May!
It's a fantastic cover! Can't wait for the book itself!
ReplyDeleteHurrah! It's beautiful!! :) Congratulations, Veronica!
ReplyDeleteI love this color. =D
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful! I can't wait to get my hands on a copy!!! :)
ReplyDeleteOMG! This cover is fantastic! Oh, and there's the train... Haven't noticed it before :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on this one! :)
Veronica. This is SO beautiful. I literally just opened up the link and gasped loudly. I can't even imagine how even more beautiful it'll look with the glossy finishing. Congratulations and I CANNOT wait until May. :)
ReplyDeleteI can't believe they managed to make Insurgent's cover even MORE gorgeous than Divergent's. That's quite a feat!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty. WANT NOW.
ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFUL! Ahhh I'm so excited!!!
ReplyDeleteMy reaction?
ReplyDelete1. Holy >|¥*'&:@&!:'s THAT'S AMAZING.
2. When's the book out? Oh, hell.
3. *Tears up because it's such a long wait.*
Your tags crack me up.
ReplyDeleteits beautiful :)!! I can't wait to read it.
ReplyDeleteYes! It is soooo gorgeous! I've pretty much been making everyone I know go out and buy Divergent and then when they love it they ask if I have any more recommendations.
ReplyDelete*Sigh* I love being a book lover/writer. :)
Yes, I agree that line above your name is the cherry on top!
Congrats!
(I love that my word verification right now is plainlit) HA!
Look, a train! I'd not noticed that before :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the awesome cover!
Wow!! This cover is A-MAZ-ING!!! I can't wait to read the book! May 2012 is sooo far offf..... (How will I ever survive?!?)
ReplyDeleteWould there be any possibility of a book giveaway/contest thing when it gets closer to the release date? Eep!!
I LOVE the cover, and the title. It's gorgeous.
OMG! It's awesome! I can't wait to read the book!!! :)
ReplyDeleteThat cover is AMAZING! I always love tree limbs and cityscapes, and those colors are stunning. Insurgent is so pretty that I almost forgive it for not coming out until next spring ;-)
ReplyDeleteThis has GOT to be one of my new favorite covers, ever! Can't wait to read it, May is sooooo long. *Puts patience cap back* :)
ReplyDeleteYeah! The team really hit it out of the park again with this cover. Totally awesome. Looking forward to reading it!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! It looks so awesome. I just wish I didn't have to wait to read it!
ReplyDeleteI did not notice the train at all! I was just staring at the amazing Amity tree. The cover is so stunning... I'm so excited for Insurgent's release! :)
ReplyDeleteWOW IT'S BEAUTIFUL!!!!! I luv it especially sense it goes with the tree grave yard sorta..hahaha.. anyway I can NOT wait 2 read it it looks so AWESOME!!!!
ReplyDeleteEmily;)
I love the cover! And now I have an even bigger reason to be impatient for May (besides the end of the school year).
ReplyDeleteI love it!! I'm so excited for it to be released!!
ReplyDeleteIt's gorgeous! I love the tagline: "One choice can destroy you." Piques my interest. ^_^
ReplyDeleteWhoever designed that cover was a genius. It's brilliant and I cannot wait to read Insurgent!
ReplyDeleteI just finished Divergent it was awesome. I can't wait for Insurgent.Way to Go Veronica it's a hit.
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful, and I love the green color scheme. I can't wait for it to be released!
ReplyDeleteThis cover is simply amazing, addicting and... perfect!
ReplyDeleteAhhh! I gasped when I saw that cover. SO PRETTY!!!!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on such a gorgeous cover, Veronica! It'll look stunning sitting beside Divergent :)
ReplyDelete(BTW, love the tagline...very ominous and intriguing)
Beautiful! I picked a pretty good time to revisit my Google Reader, hehe. I can assure you it's been a good few weeks without it.
ReplyDeleteCan't get over that cover and I can already see it sitting on my favourites shelf alongside my copy of DIVERGENT.
Oh my goodness! I'm so excited!!! Can May 2012 be here already?! The cover looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteTHIS MADE MY YEAR! It's so amazing, intricate, articulate, and jaw-droppingly spontaneously gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThe cover looks insane!! I can't wait for the new book to come out. I miss Tris and Four. :(

Wow, it´s so amazing. I love it so much.
ReplyDeleteOh, wow! I love the cover, especially the tree. So cool.
ReplyDeleteOmg! I love it! Its amazing the tree and the train.. I really want to read Insurgent soon!
ReplyDeleteHugs from Chile
The cover is amazing! I have not been this excited for a book to come out since the Harry Potter series ended. I hope Insurgent comes out after the AP exams, though, or I won't have time to read it!
ReplyDeleteI love the cover! Especially the tree!! Really want to read it!!! Wow, there's a lot of exclamation points here. Sorry lol
ReplyDeleteHuge fan girl moment & lots of squealing & happy dances. :) This is awesome! Congrats on such a gorgeous cover! Can't wait for May. :)
ReplyDeleteThe students at Da Vinci Academy in Elgin LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the new cover! They can't wait until May, 2012! They all ask if you are coming back to see us..
ReplyDeleteHoly hotness, love the cover.
ReplyDeleteThis is the first book I've read of urs and i absolutely love it good job
ReplyDeleteThis cover is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!! I like how it's similar to the Divergent's cover, yet different. I can not wait to read Insurgent. You're a brilliant writer!!!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely can't wait for the next book to come out. I just started Divergent and I finished it about 5 hours ago. Awesome :)
ReplyDeleteInteresting since Amity was the least talked of faction in the first book! But I'm guessing that's where the safe haven is now. The tree dying doesn't seem like a good sign though...
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the next book! Where is Christina? How mad will she be that Will is dead? Why are both of Tris's parents dead already??? What will happen to Amity?
i just have to say this i love your books they are my life i don't think i could live without them and i loooovvveee the new cover!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteNever before Divergent have I wanted to read a book because of its cover, and then love it more for what's inside. This cover seems to promise that once again.
ReplyDeleteOoh! A TRAIN! :) Gorgeous cover, and I'm sure the book will more than live up to it! Thanks for keeping us posted!
ReplyDeleteOMG!I LOVELOVELOVE this cover and the book(s)! The first thing i noticed was the tree and i was like omg amity. why amity?and thats when i realize that at the end of the book, tris and tobias were heading towards amity for 'peace and shelter' and my instinct was like OF COURSE! the train looks soooo cool and that line'one choice can destoy you' matches and goes along so well because the first book is 'one choice can transfrom you!' amazing!!may 2012 is too far away!
ReplyDeleteJust Finished! This book is AMAZING! I abosoluty loved it! I love to read and out of all the books I've read, this is one of the best!:) New Favorite! March is just to far away! Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteI just finished Divergent! That book is AMAZING! I abosoluty loved it! I love to read and out of all the books I've read, this is one of the best!:) New Favorite! March is to far away!
ReplyDeleteYour book was AMAZING. The librarian at our little library recommended it. I couldn't put it down. May is too long too wait and the cover is appropriate for the timeline you have established in Divergent. Thank you for sharing your abundant talent of storytelling with all of us who have and will be reading your book.
ReplyDeleteI'm crying because i really really hope that by may it means may first. Then, maybe one of my good friends can get it for me for my birthday!!
ReplyDeleteJust want to throw it out there, my guess for the 3rd and final installment's name is Resurgent. Just saying. Although Detergent would have been interesting. :D
ReplyDeleteI love Divergent I read it in 2 days every thing I could ask for!!! May is way to far away its like 5 months away and worst part is I can't stop dreaming about it.can't wait to read about Tris and Four they r such a great couple. Alli can say is Veronica you have absolute amazing books and the cover looks amazing:)
