Hello Pamela–both much better!
I believe that I like the first one–it looks like sunset rather than night–when things begin to happen(and there IS a nightlife element in your book!)The night view is peaceful–and peace isn’t in evidence there; both convey a sense of the land and culture. Also I think the yellowish gold ground on top and bottom draw attention to the title and your name–whatever font you choose. The feel conveyed is that there IS a serious side to your book in spite of its humor, acute travel obsevations–and well–Fast times!
From Gloria Olivier–wishing–and praying for the best

Might be an idea to number these so that people can easily tell you which one they like.

I like the city view either with or without the borders. The street view picture seems contradictory to the title (Fast Times…) and the country road seems disconnected.
Pushed your book today and hope to have a discussion on it soon. Thanks for such insightful writing!

The first one. Possibly the last.

#4, if counting vertically in order-shows the beauty of evening but also shows the beautiful ” giving trees” …..the Olive Groves that sustain so many lives in the Palestinian culture….

I like the last one, with the two pictures of both urban and rural Palestinian life, that I think give a better intro to your story

I love your original cover best. Feels so upbeat!
Of these the first one but with a grab it font like the original and that equals the photo on this one. Something unexpected in the font
