COVER LOVE, take three. Gorgeous Covers to Covet

WOW! Can you believe the wonderful covers that have come out this week? I am in love with many of them and cannot wait to see them in all their glory on the bookshelves across the globe.

BEAUTIFUL CHAOS by Kami Garia and Margaret Stohl
PEARL by Jo Knowles
AFTER OBSESSION by Carrie Jones and S.E. Wedel
WITCH SONG by Amber Argyle
THE PLEDGE by Kimberly Derting
THE NAME OF THE STAR by Maureen Johnson
AWAKE AT DAWN by C.C. Hunter
ELEMENTAL REALITY by Cesya Cuono
All of these new covers are amazing. So what do you think? Do you LOVE THEM, HATE THEM or is it JUST LUST?
My curious mind would like to know.

I love them! They are all gorgeous, but my faves would be "Witch Song", "The Name of the Star", and "The Pledge"

I LOVE ALL of them! Gorgeousness! What about Kody Keplinger's "Shut Out" formerly known as "Luststruck"? :)

After Obsession and Witch Song are tied for my heart.

I like the way you put all these covers in frames. =) It really shows them off as art in their own right--which, of course, is the whole point of posts about covers.

Love the frames you do! Witch Song looks gorgeous. These are ALL pretty covers actually =)

WOW. SO gorgeous. And I totally second the nomination for SHUT OUT. I have been crushing over that one hard since it came out!

I love the covers. It makes me want to read them, or at least use them to make my bookshelf pretty.

A whole lot of love and lust! My wishlist was long enough but I have to add all of these now. So many good books...*sigh*

I would love to see what you have to say :)

“Reading is everything. Reading makes me feel like I've accomplished something, learned something, become a better person. Reading makes me smarter. Reading gives me something to talk about later on. Reading is the unbelievably healthy way my attention deficit disorder medicates itself. Reading is escape, and the opposite of escape; it's a way to make contact with reality after a day of making things up, and it's a way of making contact with someone else's imagination after a day that's all too real. Reading is grist. Reading is bliss.”
