Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week, we’re talking about covers. I was looking through my book wish list Pinterest board, and I noticed that I’m drawn to books with a very particular type of cover. Since I am clueless about art, I call them “illustrated blue nature” covers. They’re startlingly blue, and they feature weeds or critters. Here are 10 of my favorites.

Illustrated Blue Nature Covers
Have you noticed if you’re drawn to a
particular kind of book cover?
These are beautiful!! I think these are exactly the type of covers I am drawn to, although the other week I read two books with amazing covers - Opium and Absinthe, and The Conjurer, so I guess I like covers like those as well. Adding The Glass Woman to my list!
ReplyDeleteBlue is such a soothing colour. :)

All The Crooked Saints has a really lovely cover, I wish I'd been able to get into the book.

I love All the Crooked Saints cover. I wish I had liked the inside as much.
ReplyDeleteI love that you even noticed the nature in all of those! I think the color would have just caught my attention. I do love blue covers, though!
ReplyDeleteI've never really thought about it before, but now that you mention "illustrated blue nature" covers, I've seen a lot of them! They're definitely eye-catching and pretty.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
These book covers are so pretty. *.* I love the cover of All The Crooked Saints and The Glass Woman. <3
ReplyDeleteHappy readings!

I think nature covers as in green, but, no, blue. These are lovely.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful! Blue is my favorite cover.
ReplyDeleteI love these! I wanted to read An American Marriage, but haven't gotten around to it yet.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing and for visiting my blog.
All of these are gorgeous, 10 Minutes 38 Seconds In This Strange World and Foxlowe especially.
ReplyDeleteThese are SO pretty! I do find I am drawn to certain covers- I love bright colors, and space is always a win, basically I think I am drawn to bright and shiny things 😂
ReplyDeleteOhhh The Snow Child! It kind of seems creepy and yet I can’t take my eyes of it.
ReplyDeleteI like all the nature elements, but I also love how the artwork occupies almost all the real estate on these covers.
ReplyDeleteGreat picks, so many beautiful covers! 10 Minutes 38 Seconds In This Strange World and An American Marriage are my favourites.

How beautiful. It sets a sense of tranquility and peace. My copy of The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern also has a blue cover. I actually bought it just for the cover.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the rest of your week!

Great choice this week! I've read All the Crooked Saints, An American Marriage, and Things in Jars, and the covers definitely caught my attention. Such a Fun Age is on my tbr, too!
ReplyDeleteI love this theme. I notice that I am drawn to red covers. I have not read any of these, but my favorite covers here are The Glass Woman and The Familiars.
ReplyDeleteWow, I don’t think I could pick a favourite, these are all gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteSo many pretty covers! I'm not sure how to pick a favorite, but I really like Foxlowe and the Familiars. Great post. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely list. Foxlowe really captured my attention, going to look it up!
ReplyDeleteOhh The Snow Child ... I finally read that this summer -- and it was terrific! I was sort of used to the other cover I saw of it .... white in the woods .... but the one you picture is effective too.
ReplyDeleteOh i like the cover to foxlowe! It's so pretty. I really like an american marriage too. It's so simple but there is just something about it. Such a lovely list!
ReplyDeleteSo many beautiful choices!
ReplyDeleteI love a good blue cover. That first one is pretty awesome. Escape Routes is nice too!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful idea for the topic. Green is my favourite colour but blue comes a very, very close second. I have Elif Şafak's book on my TBR list and Snow Child on my wishlist. But I bet I could add more from your list.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my TTT earlier.
I love all of these! I thought The Glass Woman was my favorite until I saw The Snow Child. Wow! The Snow Child has been on my TBR for ages but I've never seen that cover. Great list!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun idea for this topic! Blue is such a versatile color and I like the variety with the nature theme.
ReplyDeleteLove these!! The Snow Child is my favorite cover on the list! I'll have to check that one out! Thansk for stopping by my blog!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! I notice I am drawn to blue covers as well.
ReplyDeleteLove Maggie Stiefvater's book covers, especially The Wolves of Mercy Falls covers! Thanks for stopping by MBJ
ReplyDeleteBlue is a personal favourite for book covers for me...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful covers! I especially love The Glass Woman. I didn't even know that The Snow Child has an illustrated cover. The Dutch edition I read has a photo of footsteps in the snow. I like the illustrated one a lot more!
ReplyDeleteEven though I didn't LOVE All the Crooked Saints, that cover is still so gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great list idea for the prompt! I love seeing all the different shades of blue. :)
That's a beautiful choice for today's theme!
ReplyDeleteSo many gorgeous covers. I love this topic that you chose - I am such a cover snob sometimes and I always love to see a slew of beautiful ones.
ReplyDeleteThese look so great together! I've always loved All the Crooked Saints and Such a Fun Age, love seeing those in your list.
ReplyDeletei wanna grab 8th and 9th <3 beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThey are all a solid delight... And The Snow Child is one of my alltime favourite reads:)). My go-to colour is purple. But it's interesting that we do all have a default favourite covers.
ReplyDeleteAll of these covers are so pretty! Things in Jars is a great read, too!
ReplyDeleteThese are so so beautiful to look at! Love them!
