Feature and Follow #12


Follow Friday is a really fun way to make new blogger friends and promote your blog in the process! This weekly meme is hosted byAlison Can Read and Parajunkee.  


 This week's question:
Best cover? What is the best cover of a book you have read and loved?

 Oooh this is such a good question! There are so many amazing books with fabulous covers out there, I had a super hard time narrowing it down to just one!
...so I'm going to kinda cheat.
I am huge fan of the covers of Jackson Pearce's fairy tale retellings.

 I just love how the covers give a dark edge to the fairy tale, making it simultaneously whimsical and a touch creepy.

 So what are your favorite covers? Link me up and I'll be hopping. Happy Friday everyon! :)

    Thanks for visiting my FF and following. Following you back through GFC. I love these covers. I don't know what's wrong with my eyes. Maybe it's because I've only ever seen thumbnail sized pictures. But I've never noticed that the in the "Sweetly" cover, the branches and leaves form a human face. You know, I prefer ebooks. Especially now that shelf space is at a premium in my house- I have 6000+ books plus children's books and have no more room for bookshelves. But the cover for Sweetly is so amazing, I actually want to own a physical copy of this book.

    My cousin read Sisters Red recently, so I got a close-up look at its awesome cover. Sweetly has a really cool cover, too. Great picks!

    Thanks for stopping by!

    These covers are gorgeously creepy! Haven't read either book, but based on the cover alone I'd definitely pick them up!

    Saw these at another blog. They got so many mixed reviews I steered clear of them myself.

    Here's my Friday Hops

    Have a GREAT weekend!

    I've had Sister's Red on my shelf for the longest time and I still haven't read it. I bought it a while back when it was on sale on Amazon. Maybe I should read it soon! I absolutely LOVE the cover of Sweetly. I'm not the biggest fan of the cover designs though. I wish they stuck with these covers!

    Yes, these are very interesting. I am glad I have a Kindle Fire, as I love ebooks, but also love my book covers, and with the Fire, I get them, in full size of the screen color,and love that.
    Very good pick, love the face in the one, and the other looks like a girl? with Mirror of her? cool looking.

    These are probably my favorite covers from every blog I've been to so far! LOVE the play on the eye and like you said, giving a little creep to the fairytale. LOVE!
