I hate movie covers and it's so frustrating when the original covers all get replaced by them 🙈 I also wish all editions were published at the same time, it'd make the reader's life so much easier!

I often have read the book before the movie was even started but that's not the point. We readers don't want to be confused with the movie goers.
