Ballads of Suburbia

Posted by aine | Tuesday.18.08.09 | Book Covers

I just won a new book that came out a few months ago. I’d never seen the cover before either. Personally, I love it. What do you all think?

The Faire Folk

Posted by aine | Tuesday.11.08.09 | Book Covers

The Faire Folk Trilogy by Gillian Summers

When her mother dies, fifteen-year-old Keelie Heartwood is forced to leave her beloved California to live with her nomadic father at a renaissance festival in Colorado. After arriving, Keelie finds men in tights and women in trailer trash-tight bodices roaming half-drunk, calling each other lady and lord even after closing time! Playacting the Dark Ages is an L.A. girl’s worst nightmare.

Keelie has a plan to ditch this medieval geekland ASAP, but while she plots, strange things start happening—eerie, yet familiar. When Keelie starts seeing fairies and communicating with trees, she uncovers a secret that links her to a community of elves. As Keelie tries to come to grips with her elfin roots, disaster strikes, and Keelie’s identity isn’t the only thing that’s threatened.

One part human determination and one part elfin magic, Keelie Heartwood is a witty new heroine in a world where fantasy and reality mix with extraordinary results..

The Secret of the Dread Forest is the third and final book in the series. It was recently released. It happens to be my favorite cover of the three. What do you think?

The Books of Bayern

Posted by aine | Tuesday.04.08.09 | Book Covers

These are the covers for The Books of Bayern. Vote: Which set do you like better?

Set One

goose-girl-1

enna-burning-1

river-secrets-1

Set Two

goose-girl-2

enna-burning-2

river-secrets-2

I prefer set one. I have the first two books with the first set covers on them. But when the third went from hardback to paperback, it was released with the cover from set two. This makes me sad.

Shiver

Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater is available today (except where it was released early). Check out this book. It is sure to be a fantastic read. But since we are here to discuss covers, let me know what you think. It’s very simple, and, yet, I love it.

Note: I am going to try to post something here every Tuesday, since Tuesday is the big release day. However, it won’t always be new releases. :)

Cover released for Tempted!

Here are the previous covers.

hunted

untamed

chosen

betrayed

marked

I like most of the covers, and while I really like the new cover, I think Chosen remains my favorite. What do you guys think?

On a side note: a lot of PC Cast’s adult stuff is being re-released. One of her series is being re-released in the YA fantasy genre. I will post on them once we have covers. They are also re-releasing books 1-4 of HoN in hardback. It’s actually not a bad price. If you’re like me, and you like your series to match, Amazon has the set of 1-4 on sale for $24. That’s $6 a book!
