I think I finally (after so many attempts) found my book covers!
After several redesigns - having settled on the current covers (presently on Amazon) as a safe/temporary option until my brain would conjure something else up - I have, I believe, finally found the look for my covers. After researching so many historical satire covers, & after playing around this past 2 weeks with new ideas, I have arrived - methinks? Though I write historically-timed books, they are more classic in cadence with adventure, suspense, satire, mystery, espionage, & romance all wrapped up together; & particularly with my narrative voice being heavily influenced by such authors as Fielding, Dickens, Haywood, Austen, Burney, etc, it has been a real head-killer to composite all this in the book covers. I just know I had not hit it! My tropes are (as shown in the one creative text attached below): Amnesiac hero; anti-heroism; Satire of accidental hero; comedy of errors; fugitive on the run; classic fiction; ticking clock; political intrigue; quest for identity; inept protagonist; mistaken identity; histfic; Macguffin. I have just felt that I was not hitting in with my current covers. But I think this look might finally do? Thoughts anyone?

These are super cool!~ I am eager to see how they do. I just have oonnneeee tiny suggestion: I wouldn't put type over the character's face.

@Kendra Johnston Did you change out the attribution links to give them their own?

Expensive November
You're all probably already aware, but I have noticed CPC skyrocket over this weekend. After some digging, it seems with it being November (run-up to BF & CM) this is what causes it. Anyone else noticing spikes? Where I would usually pay 18p cpc, I'm paying over Ā£2!

Sales and Lead ads definitely jump a lot more in November. Are you doing direct sales on your site? Sales ads going to amazon don't work well as FB can't see the conversion and things stay in learning forever.

Performance goals: Landing pages
FB ads are now defaulting to Landing pages instead of clicks, even though I am doing traffic ads. Has anyone tried this? What does it actually do? @Malorie Cooper

I talked about this in the class from this past monday if you want more deets. In short, what it does is see how long people stay on the page you link to. FB is able to do this because for most people they stay in the FB (or IG) app when they click a link. However, if they have the amazon app, they end up there and FB can't track how long they stay. In my testing it doesn't seem to work quite as well as using the previous maximize link click option.

Facebook Ad Spending
For two days in a row, Facebook spent my entire daily campaign budget in about two hours. Not only the entire campaign budget, but exceeded the daily amount by almost 75%. I checked again today. It spent the same amount as yesterday in two short hours after midnight. I thought it was a reporting mistake, but the amount showed up under the billing. I've never see that before. Has that happened to anyone else?

I've heard of that happening at random before, but never quite that fast. I imagine it won't keep happening, but I'd almost be tempted to turn the ads off in the evening and then back on in the morning.
