Picture 2

     The cover I created features something standing out in a sea of sameness. In a world were perfect man-woman marriages are the norm, and no choices are the be made, a girl is trapped between two boys. Used to others making the decisions for her, Cassia now must choose between two amazing boys. But, yet, somehow the love triangle seems to blend in as much as it stands out; sure, it is something different, but not something the Society can control (or so they think).
          The male/female symbols are generic, and in a world where no one is different in any way, this is a perfect representation of 'normalcy'. The font I used looks cold, and hard; much like the  writing used on ports by the Society and society members. This is the writing everyone knows; not the loopy, swirly, natural cursive writing of today. Blue is used to represent the blue pill; the one that will keep you alive if you have water. It shows that citizens are only given what they think is enough, what they think they need. They have other people make important decisions for them; something that, in reality, is important to do yourself. The green is kept to link with the original title, but also to show that everything is calm, and controlled within the Society; that this 'love triangle' can be easily controlled by the Society.
