Top Ten Favourite Covers of 2020

Top Ten Favourite Covers of 2020

September 15, 2020 Posted by angelreads Features, Top Ten Tuesday 6 Comments

This week I share my favourite covers of 2020. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

As 2020 is nearing its end – thank gosh – I thought it would be fun to share some of my favourite covers of 2020. Some of these are from books that I have read, and some I just love the cover. Like always these are in no order. Let’s Go. 

A King So Cold by Ella Fields: I love the colours in this one. It’s very whimsy and stunning. It’s simple but also stands out. I would love to have a physical copy of this one.  

Clap When You Land by Elizabeth Acevedo: I love the boldness of this cover. I enjoy both the US and AUS cover. But the Australian/UK cover is just stunning. I love the pink and yellow, with the faces. It all works so well.

The House in the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune: This is not only my favourite book of the year but one of my favourite covers. It highlights the quirkiness of the book but also brings in the soft colours as well. It even looks better in person. I think it’s gorgeous. 

Chain of Gold (The Last Hours #1) by Cassandra Clare: Clare’s covers have been up and down for me. But this series is going to be stunning. Chain of Gold’s cover is just beautiful. The colour palette works beautifully. 

Chasing Cassandra (The Ravenels #6) by Lisa Kleypas: This cover just reminds me of a fairytale and I love it. The blue is bold and works well with the yellows and golds. It just reminds me of cinderella and I love that. 

Blood & Honey (Serpent & Dove #2) by Shelby Mahurin: How can you not love this cover? It’s interesting and intriguing. I love the combo of red, gold and black. And it looks brilliant with the first book. 

favourite covers 2020

Legendborn (Legendborn #1) by Tracy Deonn: This is a cover that I have only seen recently but it’s stunning. I love everything about it. I like the colour contrast. The way that everything flows. It’s just perfect. 

Burn Our Bodies Down by Rory Power: As soon as I saw this cover it caught my eye. The orange is in your face, but I like it. It sets the mood. I like the way that the leaves flow and how it becomes one with the figure’s hair.  And then how it intertwines with the title. 

Cinderella Is Dead by Kalynn Bayron: I’m liking covers with very few colours this year. This cover just works so well with everything else in the novel. I love the depth that we get from the trees in the background. Then the flow of the dress and hair. I love it.

Not So Pure and Simple by Lamar Giles: This cover is at stand out for me. It’s different, but nothing too crazy. It’s just interesting. I like how it all fits and doesn’t feel wrong. It just looks cool. 

And that is it for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday! What have been some of your favourite covers of 2020? Do we share any that is the same? Let’s Chat!

I have a love-hate relationship with this series. I have a love-hate relationship with this series. But I ended up really enjoying this one. It’s best friends to fake dating to-lovers. It’s always been you, bad-boy/good-girl, and I loved that. While Save Your Breath has quite a few tropes, it really leads itself to it, and it works. 

Aleks and Mia have known each other for years now. Since they were teenagers, that angst has been building up this whole time. And you can tell right from the get-go, it’s fantastic. I even wanted more of it, because I love pain. When Aleks went to live with Mia’s family as a teenager, sparks flew, but for many reasons, they both put their feelings aside. And well, now they are not only going to be fake-dating, but they might as well be engaged, too. 

I really enjoyed seeing how both Aleks and Mia both tried to hide how they were feeling throughout the whole ‘fake-dating’ situation, but anyone could see it. They know each other as no one else does. Aleks has a lot going on, and while I do think this was brushed over a little too much, Mia is his centre. Mia is a massive music star and is a female in the industry, so yeah, people don’t respect her. Obvsiouly because why couldn’t a female star be badass and write about the things that she has gone through? Aleks and Mia get each other, and that is very clear from the start; they are both just trying to squash everything. We get to see them slowly start to show how they feel, and well, one night it all explodes. 

Overall, I enjoyed this one a lot; it’s not my favourite of the series, but I had a great time reading it. I liked Aleks and Mia a lot as characeters and while I think the mental health aspect could have been explored a whole lot more, I can see why it wasn’t. The romance was slow and spicy, the angst was great, and the payoff for these two was what they needed.

Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I onl Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I only ended up reading 3 books in. 3 pretty fun books but one of my slowest readings months in a while. 

And I’m going to be honest here it’s because I’ve been constantly reading Heated Rivalry fanfics. 🤷‍♀️ I’m having the best time though. 

How was your reading in February? Any 5  star reads?
