  3. I personally like The Winner's Curse. It looks simple, but something about her dress and the way she holds on to the R makes it rather appealing to me.

    1. Hi, Stephanie!

      You know, I normally prefer blue covers, but I have to admit that this one is indeed gorgeous! I LOVE the dress, and yes, the fact that she's holding on to the "R" is also very interesting. I also like the way the title and author's name are arranged. Great pick!

      Thanks for participating!! : )

  8. Great idea but a tough choice indeed.

    Almost a tossup between Elusion and Ruins. I have to give it to Elusion by hair. Lots of great things about that one. i find the odd shapes at the bottom of the circle most intriguing.

    1. Hey, Brian!

      You know, the idea came to me because of the recent giveaway winner announcement I did. I figured, heck, why not let my readers choose a favorite cover, with the chance to win the book they pick?

      I do like all the covers, but must admit I like some of them a bit more than the others. I REALLY like the one for "Elusion", so I totally agree with you on that one! "Ruins" is terrific, as well, but there's something extra special about "Elusion". It looks like it will be a VERY popular choice!!

      Thanks for participating in the giveaway!! : )

  9. I like them all really but if i have to choose just one i would say my favorite is the Beautiful and the Cursed manely because to me it is very eye catching it is a book i would pick up to read the back, and probally buy i like the colors alot and just looks like it would be a good book just from the cover.

    1. Hi, Cyndi!

      Oh, that's one of my favorites, too! The colors are indeed lovely!! Yes, it is indeed very eye-catching. Although I do like all these covers, I like some of them a bit more than the others, and that's the case with "The Beautiful and the Cursed". So I think you've made a great choice!

  10. I like the cover of The Winner's Curse. It looks simple yet elegant. The woman's dress, the dagger she's holding and the way the woman's right hand holding to the letter "R", At first you would not notice it until you look closely. I like that it makes the readers curious about the story of the book just by looking at its cover.

    Thank you for the giveaway! :)

This one is definitely one of my favorites! I also like the cover of "Elusion", "The Shadow Prince", and several others. But you've made a great choice!

    1. Hi, there!

      I'm glad you like them all!! While you haven't chosen one cover, you can do so at the time I notify you of your win, if you happen to be the lucky one. I am first attracted to books by their covers, and I can see that you are, as well. I think most of us readers are, especially if the book is a physical one. (When I go to B&N, I walk right past the tables with the Nook displays without one backward glance. Lol.)

      Thanks for complimenting the interaction here! I always strive to reply to comments here on my blog, and then I also go over to the person's blog to comment back.

      Glad you found my blog through Fabulosity's March Book Frenzy! That was a GREAT event, wasn't it?

      Thanks as well for following on Bloglovin', and participating in the giveaway!! : )

    1. Hi, Buffy!

      Yet another one for "The Winner's Curse"!! WOW. I totally agree!

      As for the link to be left in the Rafflecopter, the instructions are very specific. If you have a blog, you leave the link for it. If you don't, but you have a Facebook page, then you leave the link for that. If you don't have an FB page, but you do have a Goodreads page, then that's the link you leave. If you don't have any of these, but you do have some other Internet page, then you leave the link for that page, whatever it might be.

      Please be aware that, unless you leave a link in the Rafflecopter, there will be no way for me to verify your entry, and it will therefore be disqualified.

I'm torn between The Winner's Curse and Elusion, The Winner's Curse is really pretty, that dress is amazing and I just love everything: the colour, the font, the picture..., but I also really like the cover of Elusion, I like that kind of fantasy world that it evokes, with the effects and colours, they're just gorgeous! :) Thanks for the giveaway :)

  26. I love pretty covers but I'm hesitant to pick one up. I've been burned so many times before.
    My faves from your list are Ruins and The Winner's Curse. I bought both of them, Ruins because I already have the previous two books and I have to admit I did get TWC because it's pretty to look at.
    They're both on top of my TBR pile on my night stand.

    Richelle's books have such unfortunate covers. Penguin needs to hire someone else as soon as possible-after Bloodlines ends.

    1. Hi, Zemira!

      Yes, I know that pretty covers can be deceptive.....I've been fooled myself.

      "The Winner's Curse" certainly is a strong favorite here! And you're one of the few people who have picked "Ruins".

      I totally disagree with you regarding the covers of the Bloodline books. I love them! My only problem is with the female model in the one above. She sure doesn't look like a very nice person....

  27. I've always been saying The Winner's Curse is one of my favourite covers because it's just so gorgeous, I absolutely adore the typography and colours. It's just very rich, but then I scroll down and I see Dark Metropolis. That cover is definitely my favourite, I haven't even heard of the book but I love the colours and font, it's creepy and mysterious and very eyecatching. There's so much elements on the cover, it's very intriguing! Thank you for letting me know about the giveaway! :)
