Hope everyone is enjoying the Holiday Season! Whatever you celebrate! I’ve been keeping my posts to a minimal lately as I’ve been making my holiday preparations.
So hopefully I’m planning to keep my post regular from now on. Though I’ll probably take Christmas and such off.
Hope you’re all enjoying yourselves! Are you doing any holiday prep? If so good luck, and remember to take breaks.
Now on to the covers.
Day Shift by Charlaine Harris
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Midnight, Texas ; book 2 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Urban Fantasy Shera’s thoughts: It’s strange to be seeing this but I miss the style of the Sookie Stackhouse books. And most of Harris’s other book covers. They were stylized, unique. this is just . . . meh. There’s nothing I like about it besides the authors name. But that’s the issue. The cover isn’t trying, it’s living off of the authors name. |
Dead Ice by Laurell K. Hamilton
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Anita Blake, Vampire Hunter ; Book 24 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Paranormal Romance Shera’s thoughts: Yeah, I like it. It does not scream zombie—especially zombie porn—instead it looks like they’re trying to create their own ice princess. |
Earth Bound by Christine Feehan
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Sea Haven/Sisters of the Heart, book 4 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Paranormal Romance Shera’s thoughts: Fits the series nicely. Despite myself I don’t dislike it, for what it is it works. My biggest complaint is that it doesn’t really ring as a paranormal romance. It’s putting off a mystery thriller from the 90s. |
Flight From Death by Yasmine Galenorn
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Fly by Night, book 1 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Urban Fantasy/Paranormal Romance Shera’s thoughts: Galenorn has been blessed by the cover gods! I say it every time. This time however I have to complaints. 1) Nothing paranormal on the cover. A dragon is the lead character! Play with that! 2) That creepy dude leering at the girl. He looks displaced and, again, creepy. |
In the Air Tonight by Lori Handeland
| Previous book(s) in series: |
| Goodreads | Amazon |
 | Series: The Summer of Witches, book 1 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Paranormal Romance Shera’s thoughts: Love the typography. More so I love the fire and ice going on the cover. It’s so witchy, I can’t wait to read this new series! |
Magonia by Maria Dahvana Headley
| Previous book(s) in series: |
| Goodreads | Amazon |
 | Series: N/A Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Young Adult Fantasy Shera’s thoughts: “Neil Gaiman” not only pops more on the cover than the authors name, but his name is in the blurb front and center. Does not bode well. That said I LOVE that the feather is turning into birds. The background is the perfect kind of city sunset to go with it. Beautiful! |
Of Dreams and Rust by Sarah Fine
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Of Metal and Wishes, book 2 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Young Adult Dystopian Shera’s thoughts: Despite that this cover doesn’t really scream it’s genre, I still love it. I wondered how the covers would progress after the gorgeous cover of the first book. Well done. |
Plenilune by Jennifer Freitag
| Previous book(s) in series: |
| Goodreads | Amazon |
 | Series: N/A Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: High Fantasy Shera’s thoughts: Love it! This is the kind of cover that I miss from the High Fantasy covers. Yes, endless cloak cover get boring fast. |
Rogue by Julie Kagawa
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Talon, book 2 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Paranormal Young Adult Shera’s thoughts: Nice. After the first cover and some of the responses I was very afraid of what the next covers would be. As in another Nightshade where they change the cover art completely. I love the scales and the claw marks are a wonderful touch. Ah!! My dragon fangirl self is just giddy. Can’t wait to see what they do with the next cover. |
Rook by Sharon Cameron
| Previous book(s) in series: |
| Goodreads | Amazon |
 | Series: N/A Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Young Adult Dystopian Shera’s thoughts: Love the idea, cringing over the horrid background. |
Salt & Stone by Victoria Scott
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Fire & Flood, book 2 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Young Adult Dystopian Shera’s thoughts: This looks much better than the first book, the eye doesn’t look as creepy. |
Shadowshaper by Daniel José Older
| Previous book(s) in series: |
| Goodreads | Amazon |
 | Series: N/A Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Paranormal Young Adult Shera’s thoughts: No. No. No. |
