Hope you’re having a great Christmas! Finally I have a day I don’t work! I have family get-together with my dad’s side today, so won’t be around to check any comments out probably till later tonight.
Since I’m still not seeing any of the hosts from last year sponsoring this year, so I am not going to link to them today. Today the topic is the best book covers of 2018. I always try to pick from only the books
I’ve read, so while there may be a lot of other books with maybe better
covers, these are my favorite covers of the books published this year that I
read. No particular order.

Those are my top 10 favorite covers of books I read this year. What books made your favorites this year?
Don’t forget to check out my post yesterday to enter the giveaway for one of my top 10 favorite books of 2018 HERE.
Of course I’ve also got a giveaway for today!
Giveaway:
Depending if you are international and would need your book shipped from The Book Depository, or if you are in the US and I can ship using my Amazon Prime, you’ll get to pick one of the books below. Because of cost, some of the books for International were not on my list above, but were books that were runners-up or ones that I planned to get to this year, but did not. There are a few I didn’t get to but wanted to that are on the Amazon list as well. There will also be a second prize today of a $5 gift card to Amazon.

The Lantern's Ember is one of the most beautiful covers I've ever seen! ♥ My favorite was the cover of Everless by Sara Holland
It was a beautiful cover! I liked Everless as well, didn't get a chance to read it yet. Thanks for stopping by!
The Kennedy Debutante by Kerri Maher is my favorite book cover of the year.
Haven't seen that one, will go check it out! Thanks for visiting!
I really love the cover of The Dance of Thieves! It is simple, yet detailed with all of the line work!

Loved the UK edition of Vengeful by V.E. Schwab. Perfection!

My favorite book cover is My Sister, the Serial Killer!

I loved Legendary and The Hazel Wood! ?
The Hazel Wood was good, Legendary wasn't bad either! Great picks! Thanks for stopping by!
I love the cover of Kingdom of Ash! although the hardcover jacket is too yellow to match with the rest of the series?
I can see that. The other covers aren't so bright. Thanks for visiting!
The cover for The Hazel Wood was at least 50% of the reason I read it!
It did have a great cover. Thanks for stopping by!

Sooo many great covers! for example, the one(s) for the Noah Shaw series, The Queens of Innis Lear, The Kiss Quotient, Vengeful…
I did like the Queens of Innis Lear! Great picks! Thanks for visiting!
Mammoth is one of my favorite covers too.
It is close to what I pictured for the first novel I ever started writing. Thanks for stopping by!
By A Charm and A Curse has brilliant font and that Colleen Houck cover is absolutely gorgeous! I really like all of your choices. I think Children of Blood of Bone has a gorgeous cover last year as well ^.^
