This. And not just the covers: when I moved to the US, I remember being annoyed at the spines never being standardized. Fonts and sizes all over the place, garish colors, sometimes they even shined... My shelf feels like being in front of a bulleting board covered with ads and fliers T_T
I got used to it after a bit though, I suppose there's some charm in this mess too!
