Top Ten Covers (I missed doing this one and I thought we could all use a bit of gorgeous in our day)
1. Nightshade by Andrea Cremer. I absolutely adore this cover. It's so gorgeous and from the purple hue to the calla lilies dripped with blood it's perfection. I however despise the paperback version of this novel and I'm not a fan of the Hardcover version of Wolfsbane either. It looks very exotic danceresque.
2. Torment by Lauren Kate. This cover is pure hotness. I love the black dress and flowing black hair. It's simply stunning.
3. Splendor by Anna Godbersen. I have a thing for pretty dresses. The puffier the better. Someone should come up with a contest were they recreate the dresses off the covers (or find similar ones) and auction them off or have a giveaway. That would be the best contest ever!
4. Garden Spells by Sarah Addison Allen. I how it connects the flowers, apples, and garden from the story into the cover. I also like how the title is sections off for this novel.
5. Insatiable by Lauren Dane. This is pure eye candy...enjoy!
So I couldn't come up with 10...I know complete and utter failure. Oh well, I guess I'm either really picky today or just tired but that's all I got for you. What are some of your favorite covers?
On my list, Top Ten Books That Should NEVER Be (Or Have Been) Turned Into Movies, I have One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabo Marquez (I say his nickname because I like to fantasize that I actually know him). What initially attracted me to this book was the awesome cover-isn't it sort of sad how we base our initial opinion of books on something visual? It has both a very intriguing depiction of the jungle and an very stylish font.
ReplyDeleteThe Nightshade cover is totally Gorgeous!

I haven't read these!! I've heard a lot about them.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it a travesty with what they did to those Nightshade covers. The originals were so beautiful. I can't believe the awful way they changed them up.
ReplyDeleteAnd, oh my. I may have to use that Insatiable cover for a TOT. That is my kind of eye candy. :P
Well, now, you should come visit my Cover Crazy posts some time, I feature an exciting cover every Monday.
ReplyDeleteAs for your list, well, it appears you are a fan of pretty dresses and handsome men. I on the other hand prefer more of a illustrative cover than a photographic one.
Some of my faves are: Imaginary Girls, Witch Eyes and Plain Kate.
I LOOOOOOVE allll of the covers in the Fallen series, but I agree that Torment is the most amazing! Great list! Happy Tuesday!
