Cover Candy #14 (The Gold Ones)

This post is dedicated to the Gold Ones—covers with gold in or on them, things that glitter, things that are warm, things that are splendid!

Cover Candy #13 (The One With the Swords)

Check out these books with swords on the covers! I want to dedicate this collection to my character Sherakai dan Tameko, who has a (possibly alarming) fascination with swords and other implements of destruction.

Cover Candy #12 (The One With Crowns)

In Cover Candy #12 (The One With the Crowns) we’re looking at books with crowns on the covers. Ooo, shiny!

Cover Candy #11 (All Wet)

Cover Candy #11 (All Wet) brings us books with water on the cover. We’ve done fire, so it’s only fair, right? There’s nothing wishy-washy about these beauties, though!

Cover Candy #10 (On Fire!)

Cover Candy #10: (On Fire!) It’s a good thing cover candy isn’t bad for my health, because I consume a lot of covers. With my eyes, that is! I look at covers of every genre, and I am always fascinated by the stories they tell. Do they match what’s inside?

Cover Candy #9 (Black and White and Re[a]d All Over)

Today, we’re looking at cover candy that’s black, white, and red. Doesn’t that particular combination just scream for attention? And fantasy books do it right!

Cover Candy #8 (The One with Dragons)

Are you ready for a little Cover Candy? Sometimes cover art is so yummy you just want to eat it up! We’re looking at dragons today. (Edible or not?)

Cover Candy #07: Three (more!) Beautiful Book Covers

Cover Candy #7

It’s time for a little Cover Candy book lovin’! I usually end up spending more time writing than reading—though once I start reading I’m likely to keep right on going and forget to write! I’m taking part in the 2017 Reading Challenge on Goodreads again—that gives me a push, too! This time I’ve taken a shine to covers with birds on them…

Cover Candy #6

There’s nothing like looking at some good Cover Candy to get me inspired to read! I have to be careful, or I’ll end up with even more books in my TBR Pile.

Cover Candy #4

I think the first cover I recall really falling in love with was the one Michael Whelan did for To Green Angel Tower by Tad Williams. The picture is incredibly detailed, fantastic, and realistic. I still want a print to frame and hang in my office. Creating covers for my own books has given me a new appreciation for the thought and the work that goes into them. I began […]
