Following my tiny review slump, where I know I have four reviews to write but no motivation to do so, I decided instead to share the covers which have been revealed so far from the books which I have in my 2019 TBR list! So far the list counts 97 books and I am sure they are going to be more!
It's the spell of the never-ending TBR list!
Now from what I have noticed, there is quite a trend in 2019; we have a tendency for more fantasy books, more Asian-like worlds (which is amazing) as also more diverse characters (which is also great!) The covers, I believe have tremendously evolved to fine art and you can't help but feast your eyes upon them!
Bloodwitch by Susan Dennard: Susan had mentioned in her newsletter that this is the best so far cover in the series. I totally agree with her! Look at this badass Aeduan! I also can't wait for their romance to bloom!
King of Scars by Leigh Bardugo: The cover is like "Find Waldo". There are elements which I am sure will make themselves useful when I read the book. I have already pre-ordered this one and I plan to do the same with the journal!
Crown of feathers by Nicki Pau Preto: This fantasy has Pheonix riders, sisters with secrets and warring empires! Also, don't you get Harry Potter vibes?
Descendant of the Crane by Joan He: Jesus this cover is stunning! Like it lept straight out of an old manuscript with the colors and the crane! Also, it has Sherlock Holmes vibes?
Defy the Fates by Claudia Gray: OMG, when this was revealed!? I love Claudia's writing and this trilogy has gutted me! I can't wait to see what will happen to Abel and Noemi.
The Everlasting Rose by Dhonielle Clayton: This cover also screams badass with the gold flakes and the dark tones. A striking antithesis with the cover of the first book, where all is bright and fluffy. This series also had great lessons about what can be defined as beautiful and how society can create bad role models. Definitely one to read.
The Raven's Tale by Cat Winters: While Poe's writing is very haunting and sad for my taste, this up-coming YA has a mysterious edge to it with this cover being quite striking and dark.
We Rule the Night by Claire Eliza Bartlett: Now this fantasy has a mix of steampunk and magic. It's also about two heroines who will probably join forces as kingdoms fight with each other.
Echo North by Joanna Ruth Meyer: Inspired by the Norwegian tale "East of the Sun and West of the Moon" this elegant cover depict both the frigid atmosphere and has clues about the characters. Also for me, any kind of book inspired by this tale carries some elements of Beauty and the Beast.
On a side note 2019 also will have the cover reveals of other favorite authors:
