Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted at The Broke and The Bookish. I've been seeing this feature around on many blogs ever since I started my own, but never got to actual participation. Now you know how it is. You see something that makes you go 'Oh-yes! I know about that!' and this week's topic was just like that for me. I've always said I just love pretty/intriguing covers. And yes, okay. I've been known to pick up books just because I was drawn to their covers. o.O
So here goes! Top Ten Favorite Covers of Books I've Read! (Not in any particular order!)
1. Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins. The mockingjay on the cover somehow intrigues me and I like the red- white color combination!
2. The Wildings by Nilanjana Roy: Scary cat, I know. But have you ever seen a cover like that? The book is awesome, to top it all.
3. The Book of Tomorrow by Cecelia Ahern: Purple, I like. The twisted front cover, I love! A book about a book, I adore!
4. Underworld by Meg Cabot: The pretty Pierce on the cover, on the rim of The Underworld, wrists held by a hot-guy's hand, dark enough to make it spooky. What else do you need on a cover?
5. Jump by Elisa Carbone: Picked up this book based on the cover too! I like mountains, I fantasize about mountain-climbing and hence, this cute book!
6. Incarnate by Jodi Meadows: *Sigh* Just a fantastic cover! Asunder's cover is even better.
7. Divergent by Veronica Roth: I like the mysteriousness of the whole look. The birds and Tris. It's one of those books whose cover makes sense when you read the story!
8. The Fault in Our Stars by John Green: I'm not being biased, okay? I like this cover just because I like it. Nice color combination, the way I don't understand the whole of it :P and well, I just like it.
9. The Selection by Kiera Cass: I read this book because of the cover. It's that simple! Look at it, so pretty! ^_^
10. Looking for Alaska by John Green: I usually don't like black covers, but this is so simple. I adore the white flowers on the cover, especially as they have a meaning in the book! :D
PS- All these books have been reviewed on this blog. Check them out through the 'Books List' tab! :)
PPS- Which book covers fascinate you?
The Book of Tomorrow has an intriguing cover and I've never heard of the book before, so I'm going to look into right now. :) Great picks!

DeleteI love that cover for The Book of Tomorrow! I don't think I have that one yet, so I'll definitely be trying to get that cover!
ReplyDeleteIncarnate & The Selection are both beautiful!
Great list :)
Thanks Samantha! :) I hope you like those books! :)
DeleteSeriously, In a book shop after the book-name, it's the cover that appeals to me the most, then i turn the pages to look into the genre and synopsis. Among the above i have read The Wildings and was worth to read. :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked The Wildings too :)
DeleteAll the covers are really creative, but the Incarnate steals the show for me. Beautifully summarized. How are you dear? Long time !
