Cover Characteristic is a great meme is hosted by
Sugar & Snark. Each week a new characteristic is posted, and to take part you pick your favourite 5 covers that fit with the topic.
Here are my top 5 covers for this weeks Cover Characteristic:
angel wings.
5.
I love the cover for Archangel's Kiss
as it really looks like Elena is a gargoyle at first glance. It's only later that you realise she has a gorgeous pair of wings. Elena also looks "right" for the in book descriptions.

I've loved the cover of Hush, Hush
since I first saw it. I adore the grayscale touched with red and it is so dynamic to look at :)
3. Vampire Mine
has some traditional white feathered angel wings. I love how her wings are curving round him, almost as a caress. Very pretty.
2. Archangels Consort
is another pretty Guild Hunter cover featuring Elena. I adore this as her wings are always described as midnight touched by dawn and this cover captures that perfectly.

I'm slightly cheating with this pick but Daughter of Smoke and Bone
has my favourite angel wings, albeit from very close up :) This is one of those books that is even more stunning in real life as the wings are irridescent and catch light beautifully.

Love the covers for Vampire Mine, Archangels Consort and Daughter of Smoke and Bone!
ReplyDeleteI've got to say, though, I really don't like the Hush, Hush cover, for some reason. I know lots love it, though, so it's more like I'm the weird one :>
I know a couple of other people who don't like the cover for Hush, Hush. I guess it comes down to personal preference. There are some really popular covers out there that I don't like.
DeleteThanks for stopping by Nitzan :)
Hush Hush has always been a cover I adore. There's so much movement and tension going on in that one picture and yet it still manages to capture the story!

DeleteMy cover of Daughter of Smoke and Bone looks different than yours... I will puzzle over this for a while.
ReplyDeleteI haven't read any of the Nalini Singh books, but she's an author who is on my 'list' so I probably will at somepoint... later in life, when I'm bored and have nothing to do.
Mine is the UK hardcover version :) It's totally different to the US and UK paperback covers.
DeleteThanks for stopping by Monica!
