* * Top Ten Tuesdays (TTT) is a weekly event hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. * *This week topic is Top Ten Cover Trends (or just elements of covers) I Like/Dislike. Enjoy!
1. One book trend that really annoys me is using the same models for the cover. I know there isn't an endless supply of models out there and that covers can be a little pricey. But please for the love of everything bookish, stop using PEPE on your covers!! Yes, he is hot and sweet and adorable, but every time I see a cover of him with his ex girlfriend I just SMH.
2. I love, love, love, books with beautiful fancy dresses on the cover. I guess I am just girly like that. LOL
3. One thing I absolutely hate is when they decide to change covers right in the middle of the series! I mean really!? Some times they are for the better but other times... No. Just no. People we are collectors! Please stop.
4. I love when a cover represents what the book is actually about. We all love pretty covers, but when I read the story I want to see it in the book I'm reading.
5. Oh how I love masks! You never know what is hiding behind a mask, they are mysterious and beautiful. They can hide all emotions. only allowing your eyes to express! Keep them coming!
6. The kiss! I absolutely love covers with the "almost kiss" as I like to call it. I adore them, they make me feel all kinds of butterflies in my stomach. Come on! Look at the intensity that some of this couples share!
8. Now for the good, I'm really starting to like covers with swords, they just look cool and bad-ass.
9. Men in Suits: Come on, guys in suits is super hot so I'm all for it. It looks sexy and uuggh guys with suits are the best!
10. Sexy Abs is always a bonus when you want something to drool over. So abs, arms, V's are always welcome on my bookshelf.
Yeah over usage of models or Pepe can be annoying! I do like them on the Lux books and I liked them on Abbi Glines series originally too, but I soooo cannot stand the new cover looks of those books. Go back to Pepe please, because now they are just terrible.
