Cover Crazy: Ascend


The purpose of Cover Crazy is to feature a cover each week for us to admire its beauty. I really like this idea since there are so many great covers out there! Cover Crazy is a meme that was started by The Book Worms.

I decided to finish out Amanda Hocking's Trylle series in our Cover Crazy feature. I have already featured the previous two books, but I still can't get over the prettiness. Whoever designed all three covers deserves some serious kudos - these are works of art. I love that the font and title decoration remained the same for all three books. Each book has been really focused on a color. The first was read; the second was blue. I have to say though that this one is my favorite because I am loving all the green. My eyes were also drawn to the floating dandelion tufts. Those make me think of making wishes as a kid and lend a slightly playful nature to the cover. I also noticed that the clouds in the background seem to be churning as if a storm is approaching. The girl also looks more powerful than she did on the previous covers. What are your thoughts on this one?
