Found a whole slew of yummy covers! And the best part is I wants all the books attached to the covers!! So that’s why I’m posting this in lieu of Wednesday Wishes.


5 to 1 by Holly Bodger

5to1 Series: N/A 

Add it: Goodreads | Amazon
Genre: Young Adult Dystopian

Shera’s thoughts:

I love this cover so much! Even more is how I love that it screams India to me! The fish, and the girls in those fish and the overall design is epic.

The Typography is tacky, but it still fits well enough that it’s probably only me (the picky font girl) that doesn’t like it.

A Curious Tale of the In-Between by Lauren DeStefano

Previous book(s) in series:

a-curious-tale-of-the-in-between Series: Pram, book 1

Shera’s thoughts:

Usually I don’t really bother with Middle Grade books, but this cover is so creepily awesome! Oh, and I love the title typography.

Bridges Burned by Chris Cannon

bridges-burned Series: Going Down in Flames, book 2

Shera’s thoughts:

While both covers did not scream dragon, I love that they’re keeping the glowing hair theme going.

Very pretty.

Energized by Mary Behre

Previous book(s) in series:

energized Series: Tidewater, book 3

Oooo, I love it when PNR covers have a gritty urban fantasy feel to them.

Lion Heart by A.C. Gaughen

lion-heart Series: Scarlet, book 3

Add it: Goodreads | Amazon

Shera’s thoughts:

Ah, so gorgeous!! Love. It. This cover is beautiful, and I love the lethal touches with the dagger.

The Cage by Megan Shepherd

Previous book(s) in series:

Goodreads | Amazon


the-cage Series: The Cage, book 1

Add it: Goodreads | Amazon
Genre: Young Adult Sci-Fi

Shera’s thoughts:

At first the filter they put on is too bright, it distorts the bars of the cage. But after a while I realize that it’s really cool. I think that’s the idea.

The title of the book needs more contrast though. Just enough pop so that it’s not a struggle to read it.

Previous book(s) in series:

Goodreads | Amazon


the-exile Series: The Fae, book 1

Add it: Goodreads | Amazon
Genre: Urban Fantasy

This cover is awesome! The thing on her right is a bit puzzling.

the-hanged-man Series: Her Majesty’s Psychic Service, book 1

Shera’s thoughts:

It screams ghost and London. Well done.

Honestly I do like this cover.

The Orphan Queen by Jodi Meadows

Previous book(s) in series:

Goodreads | Amazon


the-orphan-queen Series: The Orphan Queen, book 1

Add it: Goodreads | Amazon
Genre: Young Adult Fantasy

Shera’s thoughts:

This kind of reminds me of the cover for the Fallen books, but especially Teardop (the original cover).

While I’m not into the “CGI” feel the covers have been going lately. This one isn’t too bad. Or I should say over use of effects that are poorly put together. Gosh I miss good old fashioned hand drawn art.

The Replaced by Kimberly Derting

Previous book(s) in series:

Goodreads | Amazon


the-replaced Series: The Taking, book 2 

Add it: Goodreads | Amazon
Genre: Young Adult Sci-Fi

Shera’s thoughts:

At first I thought this was a asteroid disturbing outer space. But then when I look at it again, it’s not. it’s a really cool eye tease using type and space.

The hint of twilight or dawn. Is that a planet up there?

The Sea King by C.L. Wilson

Previous book(s) in series:

Goodreads | Amazon


the-sea-king Series: Weathermages of Mystral, book 2

Add it: Goodreads | Amazon
Genre: Romantic Fantasy

Shera’s thoughts:

Well, definitely not as cheesy as the last cover. Actually I kind of like this.

At least there both looking at each other adoringly. It still feel like those cheap 80s/90s historical romance covers.

The Shattered Court by M.J. Scott

Previous book(s) in series:

Goodreads | Amazon


the-shattered-court Series: A Novel of the Four Arts, book 1 

Add it: Goodreads | Amazon
Genre: High Fantasy

Shera’s thoughts:

Almost didn’t see that dude on the left!

So I’ve been saying that people need to step away from the dress covers, but then they keep doing them over and over again.

I really like this cover, it’s so beautiful.

The Sin Eater’s Daughter by Melinda Salisbury

Previous book(s) in series:

Goodreads | Amazon


the-sin-eaters-daughter Series: The Sin Eater’s Daughter, book 1

Add it: Goodreads | Amazon
Genre: Young Adult Fantasy

Shera’s thoughts:

Love! Love! Love! This cover. It’s so cool that she is the poison in the bottle. While I just got done complaining about over use of effects on covers, this one is done well.

Everything about it just sings with my book cover loving soul!

The Veil by Chloe Neill

Previous book(s) in series:

Goodreads | Amazon


the-veil Series: Devil’s Ilse, book 1

Add it: Goodreads | Amazon
Genre: Urban Fantasy

Shera’s thoughts:

Well, the woman is nicely covered up. Really it’s not a wowizer of a cover, but I still really like this cover.
