I LOVE BOOK COVERS!
I am a cover whore. I judge books by their cover. I can’t help it. Pretty things make me smile and giggle. So I’m here to share ten of my favourite book covers of books I’ve read! Strap in and sit tight because we’re going to see buckets of pure awesomeness.
I still remember the first time I saw the cover of The Selection. I’ve always been addicted to it! The gorgeous colours, that awesome background effect that looks like some kind of crazy mirror.. It’s just gorgeous.
The Elite has more pretty colours and more pretty gowns… I love it!
That crazy flowy dress and how it blends into the smokey cloud is what makes the cover of Everneath absolutely stunning!
Asunder has a gorgeous model and the colours are to die for! I also really like the flowery mask thing.
Splintered has one of the most gorgeous covers to ever walk this earth. It’s eye-catching and beautiful, but the best part is the detail. I love all the little critters that blend in, and the way nature kind of consumes the model. You have to look at a larger version of this cover to fully appreciate it!
Other bloggers and I have already established that September Girls is a horrible book content-wise, but oh my god the cover is GORGEOUS! I love how unfocused it is and the sharp contrast between the dark silhouettes and the light background is stunning. It’s a shame the book itself wasn’t good too. π
Nothing like an adorable circus book to make you happy! That Time I Joined The Circus definitely fits the bill. Gorgeous colours, glowing lights, ELEPHANTS… come on! And a beautiful starry sky. It’s perfect!
Mystic City also has pretty lights! Yes, I think I’m a pretty, glowy light addict. I like the subtle colours and grunge feel to it.
Ashes and Ice – The ice, the ice, the ice!! The awesome ice says it all, my friends.
I think one of the reasons I love Vain is because the glass reminds me of the ice in Ashes and Ice. The glass is cool, I like the model, and the simple blurry background really makes the rest pop!
An awesome list. I have to say Asunder and Splintered would be in my list. Maybe even Selection.
The Selection is also on my list! π Everneath and Splintered are gorgeous too, but since I haven’t read them yet, they’re not on my list. (And the topic is Top Ten favorite books of books I’ve Read, so..)
I love your list! I love all those covers too, though I haven’t read any of them – and there are a couple I have no intention of reading. π

I am so in love with the Ashes and Ice book cover! I bought it when it came out but haven’t had a chance to read it yet. A lot of your list are books on my TBR, actually, and may have made my list otherwise. π
Splintered made my list, too! I’m not usually a fan of “face” covers, but OMG so pretty! I also really like That Time I Joined the Circus‘ cover. π

Those are some really AWESOME covers!!! I love whimsy looking covers a lot of the time. Like Time Between Us. Or covers that at dark and defined. Or just plain simple and beautiful covers. For example: Starstruck by Rachel Schukert. I love the look and feel of that. Anyway. I approve of your choices!! I heart them ALL.

I love all of your picks! I’ve always wanted to read The Selection because of that beautiful cover (and dress) – no matter that her pose looks like she is smelling her armpit. π
I haven’t read none of the books from your list, so that’s the reason why they are not on mine…
Ashes & Ice is absolutely gorgeous. The cover was one of the main reasons I bought it (still need to read it). I also picked Splintered! The detail and vibrancy is amazing π And Mystic City! I never noticed those towers before because I’ve never seen it in high resolution o.O
Fantastic picks! You can check out mine here if you want.
ALL. OF. THEM!! They are just so beautiful. Whoever designed them definitely knew what they were doing. π
So bummed about September Girls! Iβm keeping my arc even though Iβm not reading it because the cover is just so dang gorgeous.
I think Iβm the only one that thinks the cover for Splintered is not pretty. I think itβs kind of weird. I still have to read the bookβ¦
Great picks!
I also love The Selection and The Elite covers. They are super gorgeous and definitely fit the feel of the book. The first dress is still my favourite π I also love the typography for Asunder.
All amazing covers! It’s just sad that I haven’t read any of these! I’ll have to remedy that soon π
It seems as though we have very similar cover love taste… I love all of these!!! π
Ah~ these are all so pretty and I’m a sucker for gorg book covers, so now I wanna read them all (especially Ashes & Ice!)
GORGEOUS!! Splintered is one of my absolute favorite covers!!
I love the Kiera Cass covers. I’m usually not a huge fan of prom dresses on covers, but the colors are breathtaking and the angles are so beautiful. They are definitely eye catching. Nice list!
September Girls is my favorite from all these gorgeous covers! Fantastic choices π
Asunder made my list! I almost picked The Selection, because it DOES have a gorgeous cover, but I didn’t want too many books I didn’t like on the list.
I had to have Wither because of the cover. My favorite cover of all time.
