Karina I really love art. When it comes to books I always pay attention to the cover art or if a book has illustrations I always pay attention to those. Especially since many have different editions and different cover designs or illustrators.

Here you can share some of your favorite covers or illustrations in a book (:

I think this cover edition of The Book Thief was really dramatic and helped to set the theme and mood for the book

Karina I like that cover!


Sometimes I feel like 'children's books' have the best illustrations!

Wildwood (Wildwood Chronicles, #1) by Colin Meloy , The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making (Fairyland, #1) by Catherynne M. Valente , James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl plus a few others.

One of my favorite artist is Camille Rose Garcia and she actually did illustrations for newer editions of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Snow White. I absolutely adore them!

Snow White by Jacob Ludwig Karl Grimm Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll

Ms. Garcia also has her own books.

This has beautiful illustrations and the cover is so dark and mysterious.

They would be so nice on a bookshelf but they are pretty pricey :(

I really like the covers of the Matched Trilogy:
Matched (Matched, #1) by Ally Condie Crossed (Matched, #2) by Ally Condie Reached (Matched, #3) by Ally Condie
