Cover Wonderment: Seeing Red

I have been completely and unequivocally obsessed with this cover ever since I first saw it
on Cornucopia of Reviews. No seriously, I find my self gazing at it. It probably
has something to do with my obsession with tufted chairs.


According to Jennifer's blog this is suppose to be her spin on Henry James' The Turn of the Screw.
Scheduled release: August 31, 2010.

So tell me sweets, has any cover completely captivated you lately? 'Cause I could live in this one.

  4. Haha, yes it is a beautiful cover!
    I own a couple of Jen. Cruise books but haven't read them yet. I have heard so much about her, and so many people love her. I really just aught to pick one up and read it.

  5. Gorgeous! There have been so many great ones lately but the most recent I saw was Maria V Snyder's Spyglass - the orange/red one not the girl with the hood.

  9. Meredith: I LOVE those covers. They always make me want to wear big dresses and attend costume balls. :)

    Lizzy: Of course darling ;)

    itsJUSTme: This will be my first too. I think ;)

    Alyssa: ooooo the Spyglass is pretty. And it makes me think of you for some odd reason ;)

    Emidy: Agreed ;)

  10. Pretty! I love red covers. I’m in love with the cover for Where I Belong by Gwendolyn Heasley at the moment. It will be my WoW choice later this week ;)

    I read Jennifer Crusie’s Agnes and the Hitman earlier this year. So funny! I’d be curious to see how one of her books minus the male co-author reads.

  16. yes, that cover is definitely hot, hot, hot! looks like something out of Alice in Wonderland, or like one of those chairs you can just get lost in while reading a most amazing book!

  19. I felt the same way about some of the dresses featured on the covers of The Luxe series by Anna Godbersen-like I could just slip right into one!! The chair is hot.

  21. Oh my! I didn't even read your post for a couple of minutes because I was too busy staring at that gorgeous cover! LOL It's so pretty!

    As for recent cover love...I'd honestly have to say there isn't anything that really compares to this one, but I definitely agree with Meredith, those Lauren Kate covers are so beautiful!

  28. Oh, it's pretty! I like it too!
    "The Hand that First Held Mine" is one of my favorite covers, I read it a short while ago, and I still think of it as one of the prettiest covers I've seen.
