I've also noticed all of the first colors being blue. I like the variety much better and like that the mystery books had dark colors that were different than the regular ones. Did Ann pick the colors herself or how much of a say did she even have?

i'm assuming that these sorts of decisions were made by the art and marketing departments.

^ That's what I guessed too. I doubt Ann, herself, had too much say. In fact, I wonder just how much say she had in a lot of the decisions about the books....

I liked them all being blue at the beginning. None of the regular series books were that color so it was easy to keep the mysteries separate. I liked the super specials being all white for the same reason. The two super specials with the metallic covers (11 & 15?) seem random and out of place.

I think super specials 11,14 and 15 were all shiny metallic covers. They stand out in my collection as well.

Yeah, I liked the blue of the earlier covers too. But glad the mysteries stayed with dark covers at least

I liked the blue ones in the beginning too. Several of the ones at the end are brown I think.

^ I don't care for the brown ones but some of them weren't terrible. I did get sick of the blue after a while - maybe because mine are all faded and washed out looking. ;D

I liked it when they were all the same color - it distungished them from the main series. Same with the white super specials. I hate how they are all white, then yellow, gold, white, white, and PURPLE. It is SO annoying to me.
I'm wondering if we have run out of things to talk about. ... Oh well.

I feel the same way, I like some of the random topics we come up with.

^ Me too, but I mostly like discussing the books over and over. ;D (and I probably say the same things over and over, too. ;D) I seem to have a new perspective almost every time I reread each one.

I just don't like how the first 5 are all the same, then they change. They should have made them all different or stuck to the original blue. ... BUt I also don't like that the books after .. what? 88? All are in New Cover style, when I had all old covers. nothing matches and it bothers me!

I definitely like the old covers better.
I also hate how they randomly decided to make super specials not white anymore!
