As most of you regular readers know, I am a HUGE fan of Jennifer Echols's work. Yesterday, she finally shared the cover for her upcoming novel Biggest Flirts, and I knew I had to share it with all of you. Biggest Flirts is book one of her new young adult romantic comedy Superlatives series.

Summary:
The yearbook votes have been cast. Senior year is about to get interesting.
Tia just wants to have fun. She’s worked hard to earn her reputation as the life of the party, and she’s ready for a carefree senior year of hanging out with friends and hooking up with cute boys. And her first order of business? New guy Will. She can’t get enough of his Midwestern accent and laid-back swagger.
As the sparks start to fly, Will wants to get serious. Tia’s seen how caring too much has left her sisters heartbroken, and she isn’t interested in commitment. But pushing away Will drives him into the arms of another girl. Tia tells herself it’s no big deal…until the yearbook elections are announced. Getting voted Biggest Flirt along with Will is, well, awkward. They may just be friends, but their chemistry is beginning to jeopardize Will's new relationship—and causing Tia to reconsider her true feelings. What started out as a lighthearted fling is about to get very complicated…
Personally, I'm in love with this cover. It's goofy and fun, which perfectly encapsulates the feeling of flirtiness and high school. I also like that it's set apart from Jennifer's other books. Her other romantic comedies have a different style of cover. Major Crush, The Ex Games, and The Boys Next Door all feature cartoony covers that sold well about seven years ago, but not so much anymore. Then Winter's Kiss, Endless Summer, and The One That I Want morphed into photographic covers, but they look more on the serious side. Also very dreamy and romantic. I like this switch to a more playful and realistic cover. If the covers for Perfect Couple (December 2014) and Most Likely to Succeed (August 2015) keep with this style, it'll set the Superlatives series apart, not just from other authors' work but from Jennifer's previous books as well, and that's really cool. What do you think?
