Best Covers of 2010

Crescendo by Becca Fitzpatrick:

Why I love it:
After last year's Hush, Hush, I knew that every cover in this series was going to be amazing... and so far I am right.  This cover is simply gorgeous and I have yet to read it so I can't go into terrible detail about the red feather.  But the cover screams something about grief or maybe even loss.  Beautiful.

Zombies vs. Unicorns by a lot of famous authors:
Why I love it:
Besides, being one of the best I've read all year, it has an awesome cover that you can stare at forever and still find things that you've missed.  In the book, there is never an actually was between the two, just stories about zombies and unicorns separtely, but the cover makes up for it.  There you have unicorns that are farting rainbows (that had me giggling for hours) and zombies being... well, zombies.  Very colorful and awesome.

Torment by Lauren Kate:

Why I love it:
It has got to be the dress.  I think the dress is pretty awesome and even though, this is on my to-read pile, looking at the cover makes me want to skip the first one and go straight to this one. 

Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare:

Why I love it:
Well, the book was great- you can read my review HERE.  The cover just reminds me that chivalry is not dead... in books.  Besides that, I think the guy on the cover is very cute.

Halo by Alexandra Adornetto:
Why I love it:
Angel books are making a come back and so are their covers.  Gorgeous cover.  The sunrise or set in the background reminds me of the movie Pride and Prejudice:

Rules of Attraction by Simone Elkeles:
Why I love it:
This is what I love about fiction.  If the cars were actually moving, they would have crashed already, but it still makes for a great cover because it seems almost symmetrical.
