Breathtaking Underwater Covers



Who doesn't love a beautiful book cover?? Here are some gorgeous covers that I'm loving right now.










Breathtaking Underwater Covers


1. Of Poseidon by Anna Banes
I love the muted colors of this cover! It's so elegant and mysterious, and I'm really digging that font as well.
I really want to try a mermaid book and I'm dying to read this one! Now if only my library would order it...












                                                      
2. The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin 
Beautiful, mysterious, dark, and romantic all in one!Who is the guy? Is he saving the girl in the water? Or is her going to pull her under? Hmm...














3. The Unquiet by Jeannine Garsee
This is a new release from this year and though I'm drawn to the cover I'm not sure if I'll read it. This cover is a little more chilling to me. I really like the look of the girl's hair underwater and her rippled reflection at the top, it gives it the feeling that she's slowly sinking down.

4. Still Waters by Emma Carlson Berne
This cover is both haunting and beautiful at the same time. I really like the girl's dress and how the blue shades of the lily pads echo the color. The book's description sounds really creepy but I'm not sure if I'll be putting it on my to-read list.













5. Imaginary Girls by Nova Suma
This one is my favorite--I love the different angle that makes it seem as though it's a wall of water. And the colors...the cerulean blue, the red of girl's hair and the pale white of her skin and dress, they all go together beautifully. And why is there a ribbon wrapped around her arm? Hmm...












That's all for this week! Which ones were your favorites?
Happy reading!

5 Enchanting Equine Covers


I love beautiful book covers, and there are so many out there! Here are a few that caught my eye this week...









 

Enchanting Equines


Pegasus by Robin McKinley

I love the elegant simplicity of this cover! I love horses and I've had my eye on this book for a while but haven't had a chance to read it *sigh*















 
The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater

I'm really liking this version of The Scorpio Races cover! The doodle-like style is really cool. Though I do think that the other cover with the silhouette of the horse and rider is more appropriate for the story.












To Ride A Puca by Heather McCorkle

This book has been popping up everywhere, and I'm dying to read it! Druids and horses? Yes, please! Plus, that cover is beautiful--that horse looks so soft I wish I could pet it :]














Pegasus: The Flame of Olympus by Kate O'Hearn

*swoon* I'm totally in love with this cover! I love the unexpected contrast of Pegasus against the backdrop of New York City, and how the girl's bright red coat jumps out at you amid the muted colors. What on earth is Pegasus doing in NYC? I'm dying to get my hands on this one to find out!











This was the original cover of Pegasus: The Flame of Olympus published by Hodder Children's Books before Aladdin published it with the above cover. I really love the look of this one as well--the mist and grey tones make it look very mysterious. But I like the newer cover better, it has a more polished and professional look to it.












Which covers do you like best? Let me know in the comments below :]

Happy Reading!
