    1. It's nice to see covers that aren't so trendy. They are so similar these days that they all blur together after awhile.

    Thanks for sharing!! I'm always looking for great new books to read and am in the middle of a great one that I don't want to end so I'll have to add these to the list! Hope you have a great weekend!! Xoxo

    1. That is SO rare for me. I'm a pantser - drafting my post the day before.

      Ironically, it happened when I decided to take a week off from blogging. All of a sudden I wanted to write ALL the posts lol

  14. I love the cover for Children of Blood and Bone -- it's gorgeous! And I think the cover for Strange Practice is great too, especially since it reflects some of the cheeky humour in the story.

  15. Oh those look interesting.

    LOVE a cute pup nose. I painted a picture of my sheltie's nose since she often checked up on me in the same way. Aw I miss her. Hope you are feeling a lot better!

  16. Definitely going with STRANGE PRACTICE as my eye catcher pick of these...though I can certainly see the appeal of the others as well. Thanks for the share and I hope you're feeling better!
