Top Ten Tuesday-My Favourite Book Covers

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.  http://www.thatartsyreadergirl.com/top-ten-tuesday/

NB: I don't follow or leave comments on blogs run by Google Plus, or DISQUS as I refuse to join something just to leave comments, and I won't allow them to follow new people, update my profile or post tweets 'on my behalf'. I won't comment on any blog that makes me sign in using another account. 

I struggled for a freebie topic this week so I went with some of my favourite book covers as that fits nicely with next week's covers topic.

1) SM Wilson-The Extinction Trials


2) JK Rowling-Harry Potter




3) George RR Martin-A Song of Ice & Fire


4) Kelley Armstrong-Women of the Otherworld



5) Charlaine Harris-Southern Vampire






6) Stephen King-It

7) Chris Jameson


8) The Morganville Vampires






9) Jaye Wells

    1. I fell in love with those Harry covers! I ended up buying the paperback and hardback sets! It took me years to get all those Sookie covers but it was worth it to replace a mixture of dreadful covers!

    1. This is certainly my favourite version of the Harry Potter covers. I love that each has vivid colours and a scene from the books! I love looking at the colours on my bookshelves!

  5. They did a really nice job with some of these. I like when the covers for a series look related. The black backgrounds are especially pleasing. The bright colors used really pop and look dramatic.

  8. I loved (& have) all those original Charlaine Harris Sookie covers. I hated when they started putting those True Blood stickers over such beautiful and original artwork. Grrrr

    1. The same stickers really ruin the Game of Thrones books. I find that so annoying! Stick it on the back instead!

    1. It took years to track down all of these Sookie covers through Amazon marketplace! I've never seen them in the UK! I sort of had to put those gorgeous shark covers in there!
