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! Covers I love with red on them.
I love books that are red. I think my second favorite color for books is a mix of blue and green <3 I've haven't read any of these books yet, but I have heard of Red Rising and I've read some of Kelley Armstrong's other works so I might check those books out :) Thanks for the recommendations!

Red is a good bold colour for covers if used well! I hope you found a few books of interest in the pile!
DeleteThose are cool and a nice reminder that I've yet to read the Simone Pond book on my kindle...
ReplyDeleteI've only tried one of her series so far but I have at least another two on my ereader that I need to get to.
DeleteI've read that Charlaine Harris series. I like the red covers.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed her Southern Vampire series but I never much liked True Blood when I watched it. I didn't like the portrayal of some of the characters like Jason and Tara and I got bored with all the sex.
DeleteNice! And I enjoyed reading several of these along with loving the covers!
ReplyDeleteThere are some good covers in the pile!
DeleteStrange Practice's cover looks really intriguing!
ReplyDeleteThe covers actually fooled me into thinking the book was Victorian setting rather than modern!
DeleteThere's definitely a style of cover that always catches my eye. Strange Practice is the one here
ReplyDeleteThere's just something interesting and different about that cover which is why I like it!
DeleteThis is a great color scheme. I have a lot of these on my list to read. I think my favorite color you have done has been the purple. =)

I like seeing any vivid colour on a cover with nice art work. Purple is a big favourite!
