I need your opinion!

I’m in the final stages of editing my new book “The AI-Powered Thought Leader” and I need your help with picking the cover.

Here are the cover options:

The text doesn’t change from cover to cover, just the design and colours.

I’m looking for honest feedback on which cover best represents the book and will appeal to readers in this genre.

Please leave a comment here with your preferred cover, and any other suggestions or feedback.

And if you’d like to be a beta reader, let me know!

Thanks!
