Top Ten Book Covers I’d Frame As Pieces of Art

May 6, 2014

Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week they post a new Top Ten list that members at The Broke and the Bookish will answer. All bloggers are then welcomed to join. This week’s Top Ten Tuesday is: Top Ten Book Covers I’d Frame As Pieces of Art.

I love book covers that is all that needs to be said. Like Always these are in no particular order.

1. Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake: This Cover is just gorgeous, the red dress is brilliant for the story and the gloomy, dark background = perfect

2. Daughter of Blood and Star Light (UK edition) by Laini Taylor: I love this edition. It looks animated but then it doesn’t it’s just so beautiful.

3. Cress by Marissa Meyer: I love all the Lunar chronicles covers but this cover is my favourite out of the 3.

4. Clockwork Princess by Cassandra Clare: Again I love all the cover but this one is just so beautiful, maybe it’s because she has a book in her hand, or the colours. It’s gorgeous.

5. Fallen by Lauren Kate: All this series covers are just mesmerizing, they are beautiful.

6. These Broken Stars by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner: The Dress, the sky just everything about this is so gorgeous and in person it’s so much prettier

7. Halo by Alexandra Adornetto: I love how the sunlight peaks through from the background. It’s beautiful

8. The Winners Curse by Marie Rutkoski: This is one of my favourite covers of this year. The colour of the dress against the background.

9. Rebel Belle by Rachel Hawkins: Another favourite cover of books from 2014. This over is so simple but makes a impact the background colour against the necklace with the dagger is so gorgeous. And the title font, my new favourite.

10. Angelfall by Susan Ee: Gorgeous, Gorgeous, Gorgeous. That is all I have to say.
