If there is one thing that makes a great book even better, it is when it has a cover that we love! The cover design is what catches the eye as we browse through a bookstore shelf or check out the Amazon or Goodreads recommendations. The right cover makes me look closer at a book, to read the blurb and maybe make a purchase. A poor cover might mean I never look at the blurb at all.

This Week-Richard Castle!
Not my genre but interesting covers!
I like the different buildings on the covers. Looks like he's found a brand for his series that would be easy to spot.
ReplyDeleteYeah they would look great displayed together in a bookshop...I'll be interested to see what else he does if the series continues.
DeleteI loved watching Castle, and absolutely adore Nathan Fillion, but never picked these up. Maybe now that I'm more into thrillers, they'll work with my taste. I agree though, those covers are amazing.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen Castle though I loved Nathan in Buffy. I didn't know there was a connection to the series until you mentioned it! Interesting concept...
DeleteI do like the covers, especially the one is Egypt but like you, I don't think I'll ever read them.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of some of the mystery thrillers out there but I don't have time to add yet another genre to my list! I like looking at these though.
DeleteI love that each cover immediately identifies with a different city. I hadn't seen this author before and thriller series aren't always my thing, but if Castle can create a good sense of place I'd be tempted to give one a try.
ReplyDeleteI really like the cities on the covers too. These are certainly short novellas but I just don't have time to branch out into anything but my favourite genres right now.
DeleteI've never read any of these books, but they are cool covers. I like the one with the sphinx on it the best. ;D
ReplyDeleteI thought you might like that one!
DeleteThese covers are all very different but I do like the colors!
ReplyDeleteThey do stand out don't they!
DeleteI like 2 and 3 for the British and Russian settings, although I kinda like the Eiffel one tooo!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the Moscow one! I've always wanted to go to Moscow and see those gorgeous buildings!
