As strong as the actual books themselves have been, there have been some cracking cover art this year. Ranging from the simple, elegant and beautiful, to the bold, eye-catching and sometimes, plain weird, there have certainly been some good'ens. And here, are my 10 favourites from 2011!
-
10) Witchfinder: The Last Nightfall by William Hussey.
-
9) The Death Cure by James Dashner.
-
8) Long Lankin by Lindsey Barraclough.
-
7) Scorpia Rising by Anthony Howoritz.
-
6) The Thirteen Secrets by Michelle Harrison.
-
5) Wonderstruck by Brian Selznick.
-
4) A Monster Calls by Patrick Ness.
-
3) Palace of the Damned by Darren Shan.
-
2) Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys.
1) Divergent by Veronica Roth.
All amazing covers as far as I'm concerned, but there is just something about the artwork for Divergent. Every time I see it I'm drawn in, wanting to see the world that is behind that burning emblem and and lies behind the image. That and it's shiny in real life, which adds another element to the cover. Below, are some notable mentions that just missed out on the Top 10!
Look out for my Top 10 books later today! :D Also, check out my Top 10 Covers of 2010!
