Top Ten Tuesday is an original feature/weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish (click the image to visit them) who pick a different topic each week.
This week the topic is Covers That You’d Frame as Pieces of Art.
So I wouldn’t necessarily want all of these hanging on my walls, but here are some my favorite book covers.
-
- The red and gold, with black edges to the pages makes this look so badass!
-
- This cover is bizarre, but excellent!
-
- Katsa – ’nuff said
-
- Still need to read this one too – I love this b&w edition
-
- OK so I’m a fan of chicks with weapons, what of it!
-
- I didn’t love this book, but I love the cover!
-
- I love the intricate detail on this cover
-
- Still haven’t gotten round to reading this, but so pretty!
-
- The picture doesn’t do this book justice, it’s so pretty!
-
- I’m a sucker for this color combination!
- The End of Mr Y – Scarlett Thomas
- Zombies Vs Unicorns – Holly Black et al
- Graceling – Kristin Cashore
- The Princess Bride – William Goldman
- The Assassin’s Blade – Sarah J. Maas
- Words Once Spoken – Carly Drake
- The Book of Lost Things – John Connolly
- Doon – Carey Corp & Lorie Langdon
- Inkheart – Cornelia Funke
- Dark Eden – Chris Beckett
And one more for good measure: I found this book in a charity shop a while back and was so taken with it I had to buy it. It’s so terrible, but in a really great way. It’s very pulp fiction. And I don’t mean the film. I just love it – the head is all shiny! I would totally hang this on my wall – I’m weird like that!
Ice Orchids (1984)
