Cover Crazy: Ultraviolet
The purpose of Cover Crazy is to feature a cover each week for us to admire its beauty. I really like this idea since there are so many great covers out there! Cover Crazy is a meme that was started by The Book Worms.
I admit that I knew nothing about this book before seeing it on a friend's GoodReads feed. The cover drew my eye, though- I was at first puzzled about whether the girl is a real human, because her facial expression reminds me of angel statues I've seen in cemeteries. Next I noticed the hair: long, wild, and tempestuous. The face seems so stony and lacking life, while the hair is uncannily lively. I love the fade to black as the eye moves down the page, and the unfocused tree leaves in the background, lending the picture an imaginary soundtrack. And then I read the synopsis. . . and immediately put it on my to-read list!
Readers, what do you think of this cover?

I'm not a big fan of the lighting on this one. The colors work with the title though.
ReplyDeleteI love how it appears there are shades of violet within the cover... very cool!
