Just got done watching Kingsman: The Secret Service. It was pretty darn cool. Man I’ve missed good spy movies. Had a pretty awesome balance of action and plot. Maybe there’s still hope for Hollywood?
A Mad Zombie Party by Gena Showalter
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: White Rabbit Chronicles, book 4 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Paranormal Young Adult Shera’s thoughts: Hmmmm, this is probably the weakest cover in the series. There’s something really weird about this girl on the cover. She doesn’t fit with the cake and tea. It definitely matches the series though! |
Banished by Kimberley Griffiths Little
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Forbidden, book 2 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Young Adult Historical Shera’s thoughts: All right, this outside of my genre. However, it was up on ATUF, and I just had to post it. Yes, it is another dress cover. However, the motion that’s going on here is soooooooo cool! The background doesn’t really scream desert to me, but I can see it now that I’m aware that’s where this book takes place. |
Bitter Bite by Jennifer Estep
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Elemental Assassin, book 14 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Urban Fantasy Shera’s thoughts: A series that never fails to get fabulous covers. Though the bare arms seems silly in that weather. Though I guess considering her power set I could see how she could survive the chill. Love that spider’s web in the arch! Love how there’s always the spider ruin, a spider, web and other certain themes in each cover! Flawless! |
Burn by Elissa Sussman
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Four Sisters, book 2 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Young Adult Fantasy Shera’s thoughts: Fail. Sure it fits the series. Yet this cover just looks bad. Also, there’s no contrast. The last one was dramatic and the title popped! This is just dull and not pleasing to the eye. |
Burning Glass by Kathryn Purdie
| Previous book(s) in series: |
| Goodreads | Amazon |
 | Series: Burning Glass, book 1 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Young Adult High Fantasy Shera’s thoughts: The burning jewelry doesn’t really . . . burn. The floating embers are a nice touch. The jewels just look like they’re crumbling. Burning Glass actually has a lead with empath powers! I’m very excited to see that. Especially in a High Fantasy series. |
Burning Midnight by Will McIntosh
| Previous book(s) in series: |
| Goodreads | Amazon |
 | Series: N/A Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Young Adult Fantasy Shera’s thoughts: I adore this! Those tentacles are even weaving around the title! So cool! The style and everything about this! So unique! |
Darken the Stars by Amy A. Bartol
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Kricket, book 3 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Paranormal Young Adult Shera’s thoughts: The cover for these books are so lovely. I love the ethereal feel of them! While I don’t think it’s as good as the first two, it’s pretty darn good. |
Daughters of Ruin by K.D. Castner
| Previous book(s) in series: |
| Goodreads | Amazon |
 | Series: N/A Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: N/A Shera’s thoughts: “Game of Thrones meets Graceling” Thank goodness I saw the awesome cover before reading the synopsis. Quite comparing books to those two books! For Pete’s sake, let a books stand on it’s own merits. While her grey skin kind of freaks me out, I love that red is the only color here. Technically I’m pretty sure this counts as ANOTHER dress cover, but hey it’s a different dress. And is that I sword or scroll hiding behind her dress? OK, so the synopsis is pretty darn cool. Just wish they could have not opened up with that first paragraph. |
Dreamfever by Kit Alloway
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Dreamfire, book 2 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Paranormal Young Adult Shera’s thoughts: It’s nice that they incorporated the wisp designs with the font this time. (Or whatever you call those things.) Love the gritty and dream like quality. Actually it feels king of like a ghost cover. Either way cool! |
Forest of Ruin by Kelley Armstrong
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Age of Legends, book 3 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Young Adult High Fantasy Shera’s thoughts: Ahhhhhhh! Look at that pretty-pretty-pretty dragon! So lovely. My heart be still! The covers for this series have been pretty awesome. My one complaint is that the title color blends in. They need it to pop! However, I wonder if when they tried other ones if it didn’t look good. So I won’t be so picky. |
Glass Sword by Victoria Aveyard
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Red Queen, book 2 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Young Adult Fantasy Shera’s thoughts: Well the crown is right side up this time! It’s not as dramatic as the last cover, but it’s still very lovely. So curious what the next cover is going to look like. |
Into the Dim by Janet B. Taylor
| Previous book(s) in series: |
| Goodreads | Amazon |
 | Series: N/A Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Young Adult Time Travel Shera’s thoughts: Into the Dim is the worst title for a book I’ve heard in a while. Dim, come on. Other than that this cover is pretty dope! Love the expression on the girls face, it’s exhilarating! Like she’s putting up a fight and facing something down. Or rushing into something dangerous. |
Kingdom of Ashes by Rhiannon Thomas
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: A Wicked Thing, book 2 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Young Adult Fantasy (fairytale retelling) Shera’s thoughts: Love this staircase scene! |
Mercury Striking by Rebecca Zanetti
| Previous book(s) in series: |
| Goodreads | Amazon |
 | Series: The Scorpios Syndrome, book 1 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Paranormal Romance (dystopian?) Shera’s thoughts: See a cool cover with a man on it! No need to not have a shirt when you’ve got those kind of accessories! So hot! |
Library Jumpers by Brenda Drake
| Previous book(s) in series: |
| Goodreads | Amazon |
 | Series: Library Jumpers, book 1 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Young Adult Paranormal Shera’s thoughts: Purple overlay is really hard to pull off. Usually a series holds off and that color until it’s got the more manageable colors under their belt. I want to like it, but I don’t like the obvious Photoshop “inserted here” look. |
Midnight Marked by Chloe Neill
| Previous book(s) in series: |
 | Series: Chicgoland Vampires, book 12 Add it: Goodreads | Amazon Genre: Urban Fantasy Shera’s thoughts: This series has been pretty blessed with badass female covers. So I think this is a solid send off for the series. I like to fondly think of this series as my “blade porn”. What covers are going to give it to me now? |
