Super Sunday#8

My favourite feature is back. Super Sunday! Where we find out the the super covers of the books that made as go Wow and also made us give the book more than a passing glance. The book featured this time is an  fantasy novel (with a lot of sword fighting probably) by Amanda Hocking. Ever since I saw this cover in her blog I wanted to feature it here. Thinking back , I believe this was my inspiration to start Super Sunday in the first place. But, since this lovely book hadn't been released them, I couldn't feature it here. And when it had finally released I didn't know about it. but past is past. Now. let us welcome this newest member of the Super family.

I love the colour palette used here. But, enough about the cover. Let's hear about the book now.

Hidden deep in the heart of a snow-covered wilderness lies the secret kingdom of the Kanin—a magical realm as beautiful as it is treacherous…
Bryn Aven has never fit into Kanin society. Her blond hair and blue eyes set her apart as an outsider—a half-blood unable to hold a respectable rank. But she’s determined to prove herself as a loyal protector of the kingdom she loves. Her dream is to become a member of the King’s elite guard, and she’s not going to let anything stand in her way…not even her growing feelings for her boss, Ridley Dresden. A relationship between them is strictly forbidden, but Bryn can’t fight her attraction to him. And she’s beginning to think he feels it too.
Meanwhile, there’s an attack on the kingdom—one that will test Bryn’s strength like never before. Finally, she has the chance to confront Konstantin Black, the traitor who tried to kill her father years ago. It’s up to Bryn to put a stop to him before he strikes again. But is she willing to risk everything to protect a kingdom that doesn’t accept her for who she really is? And when her mission brings her closer to Ridley, will she be able to deny her heart?



And see this beautiful cover of the kindle version.




Almost similar aren't they. I am gonna read it as soon as the rest of the trilogy is out. Oh, by the way the other two books also have amazing covers. 







I love the interplay of colours used. It's subtle but eye catching, isn't it. I also love the border used, reminds me of the ornate gates of a castle. they seem to perfectly set the tone to the story. Kudos to the designers

Super Sunday - Super Covers #4

It's Sunday, that means it's time to see which beautiful cover is going to be featured on the super cover section. The criterias are pretty simple, the cover must be Jaw- dropping, must indicate the theme of the book. Although sometimes the theme is pretty hard to find out. But most of all it must be the type of the cover that must prompt us to take a second glance. That must seduce us to buy the book . So, which cover did it for me this week.

It was the cover of bestselling Y.A dystopian romance "Shatter Me" by Tahereh Mafi.

                  Genres :  Y.A Dystopian Thriller

What is the book about : 
I have a curse.
I have a gift.
I'm a monster.
I'm more than human.
My touch is lethal.
My touch is power.
I am their weapon.
I will fight back.
No one knows why Juliette's touch is fatal, but The Reestablishment has plans for her. Plans to use her as a weapon. But Juliette has plans of her own. After a lifetime without freedom, she's finally discovering a strength to fight back for the very first time—and to find a future with the one boy she thought she'd lost forever.

(The Rest of the covers in the Trilogy are also Pretty amazing( Yeah I know I am always reviewing Trilogies. Although this is not a review.)
