Top Ten Tuesday: Cover Shame

April 9, 2019 Comments : 7

We are meant to be discussing our most outrageous things done for a book. Sadly, I’m a very sensible lady and haven’t really done a lot of crazy things for the love of reading. Shrugs.

So instead of our prompt, I’m following up on last week’s Cover Bait post, and I’m bringing you the exact opposite. These are the covers that make me so glad I have a Kindle. Some of these bad boys I read before I could hide my cover shame – which is easily my most insane in the membrane bookish thing.

Burn for Me by Ilona Andrews
Honor’s Knight by Rachel Bach
Big Rock by Lauren Blakely
(Steamy, but how am I supposed to read this on my lunch break?)
Bridget Jones’s Diary by Helen Fielding
Guilty Pleasures by Laurell K. Hamilton

Definitely Dead by Charlaine Harris
Undomestic Goddess by Sophia Kinsella
Dating You Hating You by Christina Lauren
Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging by Louise Rennison
The Sea King by C.L. Wilson

XOXO

    Ha, these are quite the covers! I can only imagine the sorts of looks I’d get, living in the Bible belt South, if I carried around something with a cover like Big Rock. xD

    I will never shame you for these covers! Haha. Big Rock has such a nice obvious double meaning and some very strategic blankets, always a favorite. If you follow @cristinareadsromance on Instagram she finds THE BEST (by which I mean worst) covers and shares them on her account. Mostly it’s abs being exposed in very unlikely ways by intelligent professionals who can’t seem to figure out how to wear a shirt, but there are plenty of double entendres, punny titles, Biceps of Doom, ropes, handcuffs, and sometimes straight up ridiculous effects. My favorite so far has been a dragon shifter cover with a model who looks full of glee, owning his dragon-ness. It’s a lot of fun.

      Oh my goodness, this made my day. It also reminds me of the biweekly rundown from Smart Bitches Trashy Books called Cover Snark. One just came out today with ALL THE ABS.
