Two other fairly similar covers are The Mystery of Breathing by Perri Klass (which also features a yellow font as on the cover of Limbo) and The Photograph by Penelope Lively.

Similar covers: Headless woman in a black dress
I swear I’m not trying to pick on A. Manette Ansay, who has the misfortune of having two books with lookalike covers (see my lookalike post two weeks ago). This time, the culprit is Limbo: A Memoir by A. Manette Ansay and the lookalike is A Good Woman by Lisa Appignanesi. (Unfortunately, I couldn’t figure out which book was published first.)

Not only are the photos of similar subjects, they all have the same hazy feel to them.
Oh the famous headless woman in the black dress! Thanks for sharing these Avis.
I think that there are more covers that are alike than we are aware of! Avis...your mission is to find all of them! LOL :)
Great grouping. . . the black dress and headlessness sure does set a mood!
I like both covers on the left better as you can see the picture more clearly.
These are all kind of creepy!
Have you found that there are particular publishers whose books repeatedly show up in your lookalike posts?
I don't think I like the whole headless woman trend- kinda creepy!
I think the reason the other two look similar is because they also focus on hands and have that hazy, clouded effect. I don't mind that as much but it is too bad that the first two are doubles of each other.
And I'd like to second StephanieD's question. Let's see what publishers abuse stock photos; I think it'd be quite interesting to find that out.
Those top two are CREEPY!
You never cease to amaze me with these!
Well, to be fair, one of the women has half a head.
