Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by these lovely people. And today’s prompt is: nothing! That’s right, it’s a freebie day. And I’m sure you’ve all seen me gush over the beautiful covers, so, why not make a list of some of my favorites?
The Darkest Part of the Forest by Holly Black
Every time I walk past it in the bookstore I regret buying it in Kindle format because the cover is so beautiful. I mean, look at it! Absolutely gorgeous.
The Accident Season by Moira Fowley-Doyle
Not only does it fit the book, it’s extremely pretty to boot. And it has THE button on the cover and I love that.
Days of Blood & Starlight by Laini Taylor
This entire series has lovely covers, but I think this one is my favorite. No idea why.
Magonia by Maria Dahvana Headley
I wanted to read this as soon as I saw the cover. I think even without knowing what the book was about I still would have read it.
Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell
I think it’s the simplicity of this that makes me love it. Simple, sweet, and fits the story.
Green fiiiiiireeeeee…
Library of Souls by Ransom Riggs
Yes, it hasn’t come out yet, but I love the creepiness of it.
So, I first read this when a friend gave it too me and she read it because she liked the cover. So, I think the cover is the reason I read this. In a weird, round-about way.
Holly Black gets the best covers. That much is clear.
Just ’cause I didn’t like the book doesn’t mean I can’t drool over the cover!
So, there it is. What are some covers you love?
And, also, Dumplin’ is coming out today! I might need to go and buy it.
Happy Tuesday,
That Holly Black cover is a stunner – brilliant theme for this weeks freebie! Wish I’d been more creative now!!

Which one? White Cat or Darkest Part of the Forest?

Is it bad that I want to read the Smoke and Bone series simply because I’m dying to have that Blood and Starlight cover? I know why I love it though–I’m obsessed with the color red lol. Magonia and The Darkest Part of the Forest are my two other faves on your list. Here’s my TTT đŸ™‚

No, it’s not bad. And it’s a really fantastic series, too, so you get both beautiful covers and wonderful books!

I just read The Accident Season. I totally didn’t expect it (based on the description), but I really enjoyed where it went. As for White Cat, I definitely preferred the original cover.
Check out my TTT.

I adored The Accident Season, Splintered, and Daughter of Smoke and Bone. I didn’t like Shatter Me as much as I expected, but I enjoyed the rest of the series.
