Today I'm participating in Top Ten Tuesday hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.
This week's Top Ten Tuesday is: Top Ten book covers you wish you could redesign
**As a disclaimer I have no artistic ability so all of the covers mentioned are far better than anything I could have done.
1. My first choice would be all of the Vampire Academy novels by Richelle Mead. I really enjoy this series and I don't think the covers do the stories justice.
2. Duff by Kody Keplinger. I loved this novel and I don't think the cover gives us the heart behind the story. When I first saw this novel I expected something totally different based on the cover.
3. The Lipstick Laws by Amy Holder. Those big pair of lips on the cover make me think someone wants to eat me.
4. The Morganville Vampires series by Rachel Caine. I would like something more mysterious and sexy.
5. The Mockingbirds by Daisy Whitney. I think the cover is a little too light for the seriousness of the issues in this novel.
6. Passion by Lauren Kate. I absolutely loved her first two covers and while this one is very lovely I wish it was more like the first two in her series.
7. The Replacement by Brenna Yovanoff. This cover scares me so much that it has made it difficult for me to want to pick up this novel and read it.
I agree with you about The Mockingbirds, but I LOVE The Replacement cover!

ReplyDeleteHAHAHA!! I have to agree! And I also agree about the cover for Passion. I loved the first two covers, but this one just looks really off.
I don't mind the Vampire Acadamy book covers. Admittedly they are nothing to be excited about.
ReplyDeleteThe new UK editions of the Morganville books are quite nice. Very noir.
Lots of people actually chose Vampire Academy!
ReplyDeleteYou have taken interesting covers. Some of those do need to be redesigned! Some covers are So trashy! I have posted about that.
ReplyDeleteHere is my Top Ten post!
I totally agree with you about Passion. I loved the colors of the first two books, and the orange seems a little out of place now. And the model looks a little cartoony, I don't know why.
ReplyDeleteI agree with these! Especially VA, it's a wonderful series with really bad covers!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you about Passion... It sort-of doesn't fit in...
ReplyDeleteI don't like the Vampire Academy covers, either... They have actually put me off reading the series.
Thanks for stopping by my blog! :)
Agree with The Duff, but not The Lipstick Laws. I like that one, lol!
ReplyDeleteI agree about the Lipstick laws. Great list.
ReplyDeleteI agree with The Replacement, I saw the picture on a blog and it just looks utterly terrifying!!
ReplyDeleteI agree with the cover of Passion. It doesn't much the others but I love the Replacement's cover!
