Ten Books I Read Because of the Book Cover

Top 10 Tuesday is a post hosted by The Broke and the Bookish and this week's topic is Ten Books I Read Because of the Book Cover.

Most of these books ended up being 3 Stars or less. But a few turned out to be gold nuggets. I've since learned more about my reading preferences and to look deeper than a pretty cover.

1. The Sin Eater's Daughter (The Sin Eater's Daughter, # 1) by Melinda Salisbury
2. A Thousand Nights by EK Johnston
3. The Selection (The Selection, # 1) by Kiera Cass
4. Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles, # 1) by Marissa Meyer
5. Need (Need, # 1) by Carrie Jones
6. Wicked Lovely (Wicked Lovely, # 1) by Melissa Marr
7. Shiver (The Wolves of Mercy Falls, # 1) by Maggie Stiefvater
8. Blue Bloods (Blue Bloods, # 1) by Melissa de la Cruz
9. Hush, Hush (Hush, Hush, # 1) by Becca Fitzpatrick
10. Sea Change by Aimee Friedman

Top 10 Favorite Covers of Books that I've Read

Top 10 Tuesday is a post hosted by The Broke and the Bookish and this week's topic is Top Ten Favorite Covers of Books that I've Read.

I did Top 10 Favorite Book Covers here. Some of these are similar, but that post had a few that I haven't read as well. And of course, I've read more book since the original post. I'm such a cover snob that I figured this topic deserved a second post.

1) The Mortal Instruments & The Infernal Devices by Cassandra Clare

2) The Secret of Ella and Micha by Jessica Sorensen

3) Unearthly by Cynthia Hand

4) Beg for Mercy (Cambion) by Shannon Dermott

5) Cinder by Marissa Meyer

6) Firelight & Vanish by Sophie Jordan

7) The Chronicles of Nick by Sherrilyn Kenyon

8) The Wolves of Mercy Falls by Maggie Stiefvater

9) The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater

10) Twilight by Stephanie Meyer

11) Need by Carrie Jones

12) Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick

13) Fallen by Lauren Kate

Those are my favorite covers of the books I've read. I didn't include any books in the series that I haven't finished so as to not cheat more than I already have. What are your favorite book covers that you've read? Let me know!
