What books did you get this week?

COVERS: Mila, Scarlet, Scoundrels, and more

MILA 2.0

This is fascinating. Normally, this isn't the kind of cover I'd like, but I think it's interesting. It makes me curious about the story inside...

Uncontrollable (The Nature of Grace #2)

I like the first cover more, but I'm glad it matches the first book. The eyes are (yet again) so stunning!

Scarlet (Lunar Chronicles #2)

It's not as striking as Cinder's cover, but I like that they stuck with the same overall theme. I love the font and flowing cloak! 

Shades of Earth (Across the Universe #3)

 

I kind of hate it. After the gorgeousness of ATU hardcover, ATU paperback, and AMS hardcover, they redesigned the entire trilogy (you can see all three new covers at Wired) and made it look like a middle grade series -- which, I guess, is supposed to draw in more male readers. I wish they had waited until after they put out a matching HC for Shades of Earth and then redesigned the trilogy in paperback. I'm extremely disappointed in this cover and the late change in covers, so the story better be epic to make up for it. 

Perfect Scoundrels (Heist Society #3)

 

YAY for a new Heist Society novel! So happy to see that this cover matches up nicely with the first two. 

Fragments (Partials #2)

Why does the girl have black hair on Partials and light brown hair on Fragments? I like the background for Fragments a lot, but I feel like Partials has a much better and stronger cover. 

Have you spotted any great covers lately?

Free Audiobooks from Sync (week 4)

It's week 4 for Sync's summer of free audiobook downloads, and this week you can download the following two audiobooks:

(Such a great book!)

The Woman in White by Wilkie Collins

Download both audiobooks here

Side note: Sorry YA Book Queen has been dead this week -- I got a killer sunburn on my upper body/arms/hands this last Saturday, and I'm still hurting from it. My hands are more mobile today, but it still might be a few days before I'm back on track with everything. 

Hope everyone is having a great week! :)
