I really like the second cover, only because of the bird, but the first cover has won me over; it fits really good with the title 🙂
I like the last one. The girl looks Cree-ish and like she is looking for something. I don’t really like the 2nd one – it does not seem to relate to the Title, unless it is about angels, or flying beings. The first one doesn’t look Native, and seems more introspective than looking outside herself/questing.
You’re the second one to think that the owl looks like an angel…
