Cover Lust (26)

When one has a thesis due at the end of the month... obviously procrastinate by finding pretty covers.


Illuminated by Erica Orloff
(Speak / Dec. 8, 2011)

It's a little too goldenly cliched for me to like for a very long time... but I dunno, it mesmerizes me right now. It's just bright and shiny and whatnot.

The Space Between by Brenna Yovanoff
(Razorbill / Nov. 15, 2011)

Talk about a cover of creepy AWESOME. I like how the red skies hint at the main character Daphne's demonic background, and the way the model lies across all that steel, another characteristic of the world Daphne lives in. Wowza.

Juliet, Immortal by Stacey Jay
(Delacorte / Sept. 13, 2011)

I debated for the longest time whether or not I liked this cover. I think the verdict is I do. The muted colors add a solemn weight to the cover--even as she's sitting at the edge of the sea in a pretty dress.

Legacy by Cara Kluver
(HarlequinTeen / June 21, 2011)

I like this mostly for the font and curlicues, lol, and the sharpness of the details of the model's outfit. This will definitely appeal to the YA-reading crowd.

Fury by Elizabeth Miles
(Simon Pulse / Sept. 6, 2011)

Again: font, curlicues. The model's dress and (attempt at an) unnerving stare. The fiery red hair that trails off into wisps of smoke... or at least that's how it looks to me. Very fierce.

So, how do you feel about these covers? Got any you've seen lately that has gotten you lusting over it?
