Cover Winner of November; New Covers for December!!!

The votes are in, and our winner is...

The Pledge (The Pledge, #1)

I am throughly surprised that Crossed didn't win! Crossed is very popular (though not as good -in any way- as Matched), but Pledge is indeed a beauty, and it was a fair (and close) fight. I can't wait to read this book, have any of you read it? Any good? Leave any reviews of yours in comments if you have written one for this book.

Anyways, I am doing this 10 days late, I know, I am so sorry, but finals are in and they are kicking my ass. It seems college doesn't get eaiser with the passing of the years, who would have known?! But they are in now, and I would greatly appreciate it if you guys could vote for me here k? I will make another poll at the end of December where I will put all the best covers agasn't each other, see which one wins!

Breakdown Time:

Shatter Me has an amazing cover as well, ugh who knew Crossed would surpase it?

December Contenders:
Clockwork Prince (The Infernal Devices, #2)

Illuminated

The Secret Sisterhood of Heartbreakers

Kiss Crush Collide

Shattered Souls

Good luck to all the contenders, but I think we all know which cover is winning this round don't we?

As always the voting in on the left sidebar, remember to vote! I want to read all of these =]

**The poll will only be opened till December 25th.

PS; All of these covers, and many many more, you can find at Bloody Bookaholic's Facebook Page. Check it out and you are welcome to "like" it.

Julie Kagawa: The Immortal Rules Cover Revealed!!!


Julie Kagawa teased us yesterday about the soon to be revealed cover of The Immortal Rules, my most anticipated book of 2012, and I thought she was going to reveal it... But she didn't, she just said that Hollywood Crush at MTV was going to be the ones to reveal it today. And guess what? They DID!!!

One...two...three...

Hardcover, 304 pages
Expected publication: April 24th 2012
by Harlequin Teen

You will kill. The only question is when.
In the dark days since the insidious Red Lung virus decimated the human population, vampires have risen to rule the crumbling cities and suburbs. Uncontested Princes hold sway over diminished ranks of humans: their "pets." In exchange for their labor, loyalty and of course, their blood, these pets are registered, given food and shelter, permitted to survive. 
Unregistered humans cling to fringes, scavenging for survival. Allison Sekemoto and her fellow Unregistereds are hunted, not only by vampires, but by rabids, the unholy result of Red Lung-infected vampires feeding on unwary humans. One night, Allie is attacked by a pack of rabids, saved by an unlikely hero...and turned vampire. 
Uncomfortable in her undead skin, Allie falls in with a ragtag crew of humans seeking a cure, or cures: for Rabidism and for Vampirism. She's passing for human...for now. But the hunger is growing and will not be denied. Not for friendship—not even for love.

 It is CREEPY and by Creepy I mean AWESOME!!! It's different, not a girl with a pretty dress which I like! And well it is not like The Iron Fey covers, but I think it can grow on it's own. It's very dark, and sure I may be biased cause I love Julie Kagawa and can't wait for this series to come out but whatever!

What do you think? Do you like it?

Would You Read Me? Don't Judge a Book By It's Cover (4)

Last Week's Book Was...

Darkness Before Dawn
Paperback, 272 pages
Expected publication: May 29th 2012
by HarperTeen
I have major issues with this book (and it isn't even out yet).

Okay, why do you have to essentially copy the cover of the Fallen series? When I look at this book I can only think "The Fallen Series" and that ain't a compliment. Originality is also highly valued by customers.

ALSO HOLD YOUR HORSES, is this summary strangely alike Julie Kagawa's new vampire series, The Immortal Rules? Dystopian world where vampires have control over the humans and humans have to give them their blood to survive?

I. AM. WATCHING. YOU... And I'm not amused.

After seeing the cover, and hearing my thoughts, how many of your minds have changed?
On to the next one then!

Let's play another little game shall we? I am going to give you guys a summary of a book that may or may not sound good (you be the judge) but I am not going to give you an image to accompany the book. This way we can find out if you would read it or not even if the image of the book sucks a lot.
For thirty-five girls, the selection is the chance of a lifetime. The opportunity to escape the life laid out for them since birth. To be swept up in a world of glittering gowns and priceless jewels. To live in the palace and compete for the heart of the gorgeous Prince Maxon.

But for America Singer, being selected is a nightmare. It means turning her back on her secret love with Aspen, who is a caste below her. Leaving her home to enter a fierce competition for a crown she doesn't want. Living in a palace that is constantly threatened by violent rebel attacks.

Then America meets Prince Maxon. Gradually, she starts to question all the plans she's made for herself- and realizes that the life she's always dreamed of may not compare to a future she never imagined
So, now, all you have to do is say if you would read it or not!
(Yes or no will suffice if you don't wanna write a lot)

Next Wednesday I will post a new summary with no image,
I will also post the cover and book information of this week.

PS; If you know the name, image or whatever of this book do not say anything. Don't give any sort of information away please.
