What in ZE heck does New Moon & Eclipse's cover art have to do with the story!?
I get Twilight..I get Breaking Dawn, but I'm SO confused about the other two.

Good question. I really don't understand it either.
Perhaps for New Moon, the blossoming flower could be the blossoming of Jacob into a shape shifter. Perhaps the frayed ribbon on Eclipse could be the frayed ties of Bella's and Jacob's friendship.

I was wondering this too....and actually oddly enough....the red ribbon is in New Moon, and then it's Eclipse's cover. Isn't that weird? I have no idea what the flower is supposed to symbolize but I like the "blossoming of Jacob into a shape shifter"

I always notice the oddest things, and the get hung up one them. *sigh*
I like the blossoming thing too. Maybe it even symbolizes their "blossoming friendship."
As lame as that is.

You know what I'm talking about with the red ribbon though right?? When they go to get Edward from the Volturi and they are having that festival with all the red. The ladies red ribbon flies off and the wind catches it. They make kind of a big deal out of just a ribbon flying, so that's why I noticed it. And the second time I read it I was like "HEY!!! I get the red ribbon on the cover now!!" Then realized it's on the NEXT books cover....wtf?

I never noticed that part! I'm ashamed. With as many times as I've read that book, that part never popped out at me.
Someone slap me. I'm losing it.

Taken from the website Q&A...
Q. What kind of flower is that on the cover, and what does it mean?
A. That is a ruffled tulip. As for the meaning... If you've read the Twilight FAQ, you know that the apple cover had a lot of meaning for me, and I was an active part of the covering process. However, that experience is more the exception than the rule in the publishing world. Something to keep in mind if you intend to embark on a career as a writer: lots of things you might expect to be under your control are not. Covers, for example. Those are mostly up to the publisher and the marketing and sales departments. So I don't know what the tulip means—I didn't have anything to do with this one.
