Top Ten Favorite Book Covers

Yeah!!I'm all about the visuals and we all know how excited we get for a good cover! I am so excited to share my Top Ten favorites, hosted by The Broke and The Bookish! Enjoy!









 

Splintered by A.G. Howard--Love the colors and the face and eyes, it is beautiful and just a tad creepy. Perfect for Wonderland.

Siege and Storm by Leigh Bardugo--The Russian spires, the text, the dragon out of the smoke, the waves on the bottom. Totally visually perfect for the book!

Arcadia Awakens by Kai Meyer--This cover is so Britney...

Crewel by Gennifer Albin--I seriously just want to stare at this cover and fall into the colors. Beautiful.




Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor--This cover and the first book are works of art to me. Just LOVE them.

Destory Me by Tahereh Mafi--The tears and the rain...so visually poignant. Love the emotional impact.

Everbound by Brodi Ashton--The dress, the smoke, the billowing! Oh I just LOVE it! I'm a sucker for a cover with a gorgeous dress :)

For Darkness Shows the Stars by Diana Peterfreund--The dress, the stars and the colors make it look like she's flying in space and I adore it! Again...the dress...



The Selection by Kiera Cass--The dress...It's all about the dress...

Sweet Tooth by Ian McEwan--The cover captures the time period of the story just so perfectly that is is absolute cover brilliance! Read this if you haven't yet!


Can't wait to see all the lovelies you all picked out!!

  9. I love the cover first splintered! The only reason it didn't make my list is that I haven't read it yet. The second book isn't due out until January 2014, but the cover is available and it is even more amazing! I did a blog post on it a couple of days ago but you can definitely find it on goodreads – I think you will love it. Great list!

  14. I haven't read Splintered, but I love that cover, too. It is a tad creepy, and it does make me think of Alice in Wonderland, even if I didn't know that it was about Wonderland.
