Disclaimer: Yes, I have yellow teeth. My photog is totally going to whiten those babies up. And make sure my neck-skin doesn't look so freaking white. Etc, etc. I just wanna know which one you like best.
Shameless Plug: If you live anywhere near Logan, Utah (meaning a short plane ride away) you should have Brigitte Ballard take your picture. She is teh awesome.
Okay, okay. Pics.

My favorites are #1, #5, and #7. :D
I like #2 and #4, but I like it in black and white.
You're gorgeous in all of them :D, but I definitely think the ones in the blue shirt are more striking. I'm liking #7 a lot. Yes, I vote for #7. Final answer. :D
#4. I don't care if it's b/w or color. I like the way your face sits in 4.
I like all of them! #5 #6 and #7 are my favorites though :) I love that hair cut. I am so tempted to go out and get exactly that cut.
I like 4 quite a lot. I also like the blue better than the orange.
I don't think you need to change it to black and white, but I'm a big fan of black and white because it evens out skin tone naturally. And some of us (me) need that. Heh.
I like 1, 5 & 7 best. Honestly, I love the picture you're using now too.
#6
#1 & #4
I like #2 and #6. I'm all for more candid shots.
I have to go with the "just for fun" one in black and white.
Elana--you so didn't ahve to have all of those disclaimers, you silly girl you!
#4 is my favorite, the way you're positioned and the way the light plays off of you--the blue brings out your eyes!
I love the last one - I think it's perfect - and totally you (or how you seem to be on this very blog) :)
Well of course the laughing one is my fav. but #4 otherwise.

What a great problem to have! All your photos are beautiful--no bad choices. I do like #7 best I think, too. I like the ones where you're looking at the camera and smiling. :)
I like them all, but I vote for #4 or #7- good luck with making a decision!!
I like #4 and #5. Good luck!
I like the blue on you a lot better than the orange. And I like the close up better, so any of the blue shirt close-up shots
I like #4 and #7 - they all look great though Elena - good luck choosing.
I like #5 in black and white. It shows confidence - but in a friendly way. :-)
Wooo sexy!!! I like #7. Also, you laughing, because it's beautiful.
I'm leaning to #7 but Just Laughing is so you!
But 7 though I really like the one you use now.

First of all you look lovely in each of them, and your hair is awesome!
I like 2, 3 and 5, but this is all so subjective! Argh. Plus I like orange.
I like four and five.
I like #2 best--it has a more 'authorial' feel and I think the overall composition works best...
I like #2 (though it reminds me of my 8 yo who is ALWAYS PLAYING WITH HIS EARS!!!), #3 (in black and white) and #7. Definitely #7. :D
#5!
I like #5 as well.
You look great in these, especially in the blue shirt! My favorite is #4, in color.
#4-you look happy and relaxed in that one and the blue is a great color on you. :)
The blue is fantastic on you, so keep either #4 or #7 in color, JMO.
I love 6 and 7 - if I had to pick just one though, 6 :D
I like #1 and #4. Tore923@aol.com
I like 6 the best!
Another vote for 4 or 7. In those shots, it's as if you couldn't hold back your smile. Let us know which you choose! :)
I really like 2. I love candid shots best. But also the blue shirt one's look good, and number 5. Such purdy shots! you look beautiful!
I love 4 and 7--you're leaning in like you and the viewer are friends, and you look very happy.
You Elana are beautiful!!!
I like 6. Make it black and white. Gorgeous!
I like #4 best, and #7 which looks very similar to 4, good luck choosing!
I'm partial to #5 - you look confident, relaxed - and I think you look GREAT in orange :D
#4 gets my vote!!
CUTE!
Can't wait to see it inside your book!
My favorites are 1# and 6#. :)
#7 and the laughing one. Great shots! Love your hair!
#4 - no question. You look beautiful!
They're all good, Elana. I really like #4 and #7. The black & white one is fun too. Good luck choosing!
You take a nice picture - you've got a sparkle that shines through in them all. Lucky you!
My faves are 4 & 5, but I don't think you could go wrong with any of them.
#1 is my favorite but I also like #7. Your smile is fantastic in all of them.
I like #7 the most I think. Definitely prefer the blue over orange.
Rock on!
I like number 4! And I dig the new haircut.
I like #5 but in black and white. But they are all fab! What fun!
I like number one and two.
I hope our opinions help! I think everyone has a different fav!lol
Okay, so as much as I love B&W photos, that coralish color looks great on you. So I vote for 3 or 5.
They are all great though! :)
5 or 8. That's my vote.
First, you guys are awesome. You sure know how to make me feel good about myself.
Thanks! It seems blue is more popular than orange and 4 and 7 are the leaders right now...
I like 5 best. Hard to pick though, you look great in all of them!
#1 and 4 have my vote! The blue shirt makes you pop right off the page, love it! They all came out GREAT! Keep on smiling!
BTW your hair is totally Fabulous!
Good luck choosing and let us know ;)

OMG! sorry for the reapeats. My internet wouldn't comment and I just kept hitting comment being impatient. I am not tring to vote more than once really, lol.
I like #5 best. :)
Great pics. My fav is #4!
#4 - you look so friendly and approachable!
I like the orangey-coral color. It gives you a little more warmth. #3.
I like #2 hands down. But then I like the literary, mysterious, humorous quality of black and white. There seem to be a few of us who voted for it too.
7! You are lucky to have so many great ones to choose from. Wow.
And I like black and white myself.
(Too funy. I just did this last week myself.)
Shelley
I love how everyone is giving you conflicting advice! My vote is for either #3 or #5 because I just love you in that color, but really they're all great. :-)
Wow, lots of different votes! That's good, it means you can't go wrong. ;) I personally think I like 4 the best, but they're all great!
Awesome pics, Elana! I love #4 and #7 and I seriously love the one where you're laughing. You could use that one ;o)
I really like #7, but you know which one I love? Number eight. :D
Okay, I'm totally caught between 3 or 7. I just can't seem to choose between them. They are awesome pics. Yay!
Lisa ~ YA Literature Lover
Love #7!
I'm a fan of the blue for my first picks would be 4 or 7. If I would pick one in the coral, it would be 3. So many opinions - is this really helping or making you more confused! Good luck!

Fabulous pics! It looks like you had fun. My favorites are 6 & 7. Love the blue shirt and you look very relaxed and natural in these shots.
#5 is so what I see for the back of your cover! I freakin' love it! It makes you look bright and professional--which you totally are! =D
But #1 is super cute too, crap now your making me all confused which one is my all time favorite!
Oh, I like #4 and #7! And the color of that shirt is gorgeous! Beautimous!
#1- the blue looks good, keep it color...
#1 FOR SURE. The best.
maybe its just me and I'm a fan of black and white but I enjoyed #2 the best
3 & 5 really seem to show off your personality.
3 is my favorite. :)
I really like #5, but #7 is a very close second!
#5 for me--I love your casual, laid back look here, most natural.
I like 3 and 4 the most, as they seem the most professional writer looking. I don't know if that matters, but thats my vote.

You've got a great smile, so it's a tough call. I'd say #3.
I like #7 and the just for fun because it really shows your personality. (And your Facebook/blog pic is great too.)
I vote #5.
I like #2 the best because it looks least posed. Of the more obviously posed shots, I like #6. But I don't think any of the photos do you wrong, either. :)
I like 3, 6, and 7. But really you look good in all of them even #8. I live right next to Logan in Preston, Idaho. We have to go there to buy anything worth living for, food, clothes, ect.
I can see why you need help because they are ALL cute of you!
I do like 3,4,7.

I do like 3,4,7.
I like #3 and #5. I love your hair too.
Lookin' good there! I guess I favor #2 and #6. Just did the writer photo thing myself and couldn't quite choose so wound up going with one "smiling and friendly" and one "serious writerly"!
4 and 7 look the same and they are my faves. But of the two, seven. It's also a good number.
I like #3 and #5!
Def #4 or #7--they're very similar and blue is definitely your color. You look gorgeous! :)
I like #3, #5, & #8. =] You look frawsome, Elana.
I like 2, 5, and the last one, but I also like the idea of having you do a photo with a more natural background, like somewhere outside or in a library.
I like 1 and 7. You just look more relaxed and natural in them. Nicely done!
You're so cute. I like 1, 3, 5 and 7.
I like them all but my fav is #4. The coral color looks great against your skin!
I like number 6 the best, leaning over the chair. It looks more natural and less posed to me. I also like the ones of you in the orange shirt and the black and white ones the best.
I like the idea of posting pics, though! I may steal this...I keep poring over mine, trying to decide...
I like #7! Somehow the peach color seems too cheerful for a dystopian writer!
#4 or #7 are my favorites. I love your hair color and your shirt!
I like #2 the best. #1 is my runner up. :)
#1 is my vote
#7 Great photos!
#7 but it's a close call. They are all very nice!
You photograph well! I like #7 and #1.
#2 I love black and white.
#4 I like how you're situated, and your cheeks are seem more peachy, which gives you such a happy glow.
I pick #6. Because you look relaxed and laid back. You seem to be more comfortable with yourself and having your picture taken in that pose than the others. Don't get me wrong, I like the others a lot, but #6 works for me and that color blue works well for you!
Such cute pictures! It looks like you have a hard choice to make, and I'm not sure all of our opinions matter since just about everyone has been picked above in the comments. LOL.
But, in case you wanted to know, I love #4. Good luck picking! It's going to be hard!!
Well, the last one is my favorite because that's how I always picture you, laughing! But out of the others, #5 is my fave.
I love the picture of you laughing! But since it's not numbered, my next fav is #7. I love how the blue looks on you:)
Love, love, love you in the color blue!
#2 if your book is serious or profound, #7 if it's funny.
Oh, I like #7!
I love #7 the best. Definitely. You're SO cute!
Def 7. So good!
I like number 2 but I like black and white stills.
I love that color of blue on you! (It's okay to go B&W, just sayin' I like that color) I think I like #7 best.
Thanks for sharing! You look maaaahvelous!
4!! I love #4!! You're gorgeous in all of them though =)
As a teen + reader, I was drawn most to #7.
I like 1,4, and 7. :D
ok, the older we get, the more we look alike. creeeepy. i vote for all of them except for #6. haha! and i love sepia or b&w photos! i think they are uber flattering! neck skin. yellow teeth. bwahahahahaaaaa. can't stop laughing. you're gorgeous just the way you are. xoxo
They're all gorgeous, but if I had to choose just one, I'd say #7.
They're all great but I would say #1 and #5 appealed to me the most.
#7 is my pick.
# 5 is my favorite
#5
Where's the 'tude though? (;
2, 4 and the just for fun one ( I think its wonderful!)
Sassy, sexy hair! I LOVE it!!!
Sheesh, I hope I see you in person someday.
#4.
#2! Final answer. :)
#2 definitely.
They are all beautiful photos, but I like number 4.
The laughing one! Or #2 or 7. All of them are good actually.
4 and 5 are my faves. You're beautiful!
They're all great, but I'm going to vote #6. :)
I'm a little late to the vote, but my fave is #7.
numero 7
You look good in all of them, but I think you appear most relaxed, yet professional in this one.
6 totally. Or 7. The position is good.
No, wait. #8 is the best. (jk)
