Top Ten Best Book Covers of 2013


Welcome to the Top Ten of 2013 hosted by FiktshunTwo Chicks on Books and Magical Urban Fantasy!

Today we're looking at my top ten favorite covers of books released in 2013!

Asunder (Newsoul #2) by Jodi Meadows

I just love all the covers of these books. They are absolutely gorgeous. From the colors to the beautiful girl on the cover!

Extracted (The Lost Imperials #1) by Sherry D. Ficklin and Tyler Hall Jolley

That's right, this made it on to another one of my lists. I absolutely love this cover. I am pretty sure it's the steampunk elements that drew me in, and the model that kept me there. Plus the color scheme is amazing. It's designed by the fantabulous Lisa Amowitz. She makes such great covers you should check out her work HERE!

This one I love for it's simplicity and stunning color. There's just something about a simple cover that draws me right in.

The Archived (The Archived #1) by Victoria Schwab

Another simple cover that drew me in. Not only is it totally beautiful but the feel of the actual cover is amazing, it's so soft!

Everbound (Everneath #2) by Brodi Ashton

I love this cover more than the first. Something about the gray smoke, yup, I'm totally loving that. And the way it flows right out of the girl's dress. It's just so cool!

MILA 2.0 (MILA 2.0 #1) by Debra Driza

I might not have been a huge fan of this book, but I do love the cover so much. It's just really neat!

Ashes & Ice (Ashes & Ice #1) by Rochelle Maya Callen

This cover is simply fantastic. I love the way the girl is hidden behind the ice/frozen water. I can't wait to see what the second book in this series looks like!

This is another Lisa Amowitz design, I told you she was awesome. I just love the whole theme of this cover. The in person is actually even more beautiful than this cover photo!

These Broken Stars photo 13138635_zpsb4941f16.jpg
These Broken Stars (Starbound #1) by Amie Kaufman and Megan Spooner

There is just something so ethereal about this cover. I love the stars in the background, makes me want to jump right in. And the way the girl's dress billows out, so pretty!

Another series where there is not a bad cover in sight. The colors are tremendous for these covers, especially this one. And it's so simple yet says so much!

Finally, my #1 pick of this year (ok, so it's 11, but I could not help myself)!


This cover is so amazing. Once it comes up on the page I just can't stop looking at it. The girl, the elements, the, well, EVERYTHING. It's definitely my most favorite cover of 2013!

I would put honorable mentions, but this post would go on forever!
What are some of your favorite covers from this year?

  1. I hated Weather Witch, but I agree, the cover is kind of cool. Lots of people have Splintered featured! I have that book, but have not read it yet. Through the Ever Night and These Broken Stars are lovely! I can't wait to see the cover of the next Starbound book :D

    Happy holidays!
