Cover Reveal: Finding Joy

Remembering Joy

by Jenni Moen

Release Date: 12/13/13

Book Summary from Goodreads:

Love is patient. 

It can happen when you least expect it,

where you least expect it,

with whom you least expect it.

Love is kind.

But love may not grow out of kindness. 

It can happen with the person who hates you most

because love knows no bounds. 

And it keeps no record of wrongs.

Love doesn’t hold a grudge.

Love forgives.

Love forgets.

But when the healing of your heart 

breaks the hearts of the ones you love …

it may seem impossible to

Find joy.

Title: Pawn

Author: Aimee Carter

Publisher: Harlequin Teen

Publishing Date: November 26, 2013

Synopsis

YOU CAN BE A VII. IF YOU GIVE UP EVERYTHING. 

For Kitty Doe, it seems like an easy choice. She can either spend her life as a III in misery, looked down upon by the higher ranks and forced to leave the people she loves, or she can become a VII and join the most powerful family in the country. 

If she says yes, Kitty will be Masked—surgically transformed into Lila Hart, the Prime Minister's niece, who died under mysterious circumstances. As a member of the Hart family, she will be famous. She will be adored. And for the first time, she will matter. 

There's only one catch. She must also stop the rebellion that Lila secretly fostered, the same one that got her killed and one Kitty believes in. Faced with threats, conspiracies and a life that's not her own, she must decide which path to choose—and learn how to become more than a pawn in a twisted game she's only beginning to understand.

Synopsis

Hannah never meant to be a mean girl – at Camp Juniper Point or at her high school. It just sort of happened during one painful year when her parents split and her life fell apart. Who knew being mad at the world would catapult her to popularity? But since changing the status quo would make her some serious enemies, she’s prepared to ride out her time until graduation. That is, until a camp friend calls her on the act during their school ski trip. Will Julian out her to her friends? Or will the guy she once accused of being King of the Nerds make her wish she was a whole lot more like him?

Top Ten Covers I Wish I Could Redesign

Meme hosted by The Broke and Bookish

1.  The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky

I know that this one's a redesign, and all that, but seriously? The cover doesn't say anything about the book at all! :O It's just a plain solid color, with a little words here and there. Boring!  I'm glad I saw the cover at the right first; otherwise, I wouldn't even have bothered to try this book/movie!

2.  Bloodlines by Richelle Mead

I haven't read this series yet, although I've been hearing lots of great reviews about this.  I just can't push myself to read it when the cover's like this. (Yes, I judge the book by its cover :c)  I really don't like books with people's faces on it, I don't know why. :o

3.  The DUFF: Designated Ugly Fat Friend by Kody Keplinger

I don't like how the title was positioned; it looks so all over the place.  The words inside the letters seemed a little awkward, too.  The face of the girl also looks a little weird. x.x

4.  Lock and Key by Sarah Dessen

The cover at the left just doesn't give the book justice; I wouldn't have read this if that was the copy that I first saw.  I actually like the cover of the paperback (right)

5.  Infinity Glass by Myra McEntire

I like the bottom half of the cover, but seriously.  I don't know what that girl is doing in the cover. Her position looks weird and awkward. o.O

6.  Isla and the Happily Ever After by Stephanie Perkins

I definitely like the original covers better! The redesigned ones just don't show the cuteness and all of the story.  Although, they've started to grow on me, especially the Anna and the French Kiss's!

7.  This Girl by Colleen Hoover

Couples kissing on the cover? No, just no! I hate kissing couples as a cover.

8.  The Kissing Booth by Beth Reekles

This too! People's faces + Kissing. Nuh uh.

9.  Mutilate My Heart by Emily Godwin

I actually don't know what this cover wants to show. :o  I haven't read the book yet so I don't know if it's in any connection with the story, but I wouldn't be putting this in my TBR if I didn't see this when I was signing up for blog tours. :o

10.  The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

I like the concept of the cover, with all the clouds and chalk-y fonts.  It looks adorable, and I'm a sucker for cute stuffs (not to mention it's blue).  However, I think that this cover doesn't really show what the book is about.  I read this book because my friend recommended it to me, without reading the synopsis.  I thought that this book's of a lighter mood because of the cover design, but I cried buckets of tears here. :o
