Top Ten Tuesday- Favourite Blue Covers

Thanks to Broke and Bookish, I'm back with another Top Ten Tuesday Post. This week's theme is a Freebie about Covers- which means I can basically create my own topic. I know there'll be some really creative lists out there, but I'm going to post my favourite blue covers and stick to the basics. So here are my Top Ten Favourite Blue Covers ( in no particular order)

I love the texture that this replicates!
2. Unravel Me by Tahereh Mafi
I wish I could say that I loved the book as much as I loved the writing.....

3. Anything But Typical by Nora Raleigh Baskin
Doodles on covers aways draw me in. No matter what!

If you hadn't guessed already, I have a weakness for watercolour/inked paintings!
5. The Thing about Jellyfish by Ali Benjamin 
I just finished this book and I absolutely LOVED IT!
(Look out for my review soon)!
6. Crossed by Ally Condie
This entire series was OK, I loved it while reading it,
Then got slightly bored with the concept. It's quite similar to Divergent etc...


7. The Survivor's Guide to Family Happiness by Maddie Dawson
This book is fictional, not a self-help book...

8. The Selection by Kiera Cass
I think the reflections really add a lot to the cover.
9. All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr
This is definitely one of my all-time favourite books!
10. Delirium by Lauren Oliver
I didn't love this book either. But the cover is beautiful!
I had so much fun writing this post! What's your favourite blue cover? I just can't choose!

    I've not read any of these but of the ones you chose, I think my favorite is This Adventure Ends. I love the dreamy feel of it. Blue is a great color and I bet you had a hard time narrowing it down.

    Great choices for BLUE covers!! It's such a shame that some books looks so beautiful only to fail at making it a an enjoyable read!

      Isn't it? Well, I guess I still have to learn not to judge a book by its cover!

      Teal is my favourite shade of blue- at the moment. I never know when that might change!

    I love blue covers. Unravel Me is awesome (all the covers in that series really) and I've always liked Crossed too. Something about the blue and her breaking out of that bubble thing. Delirium is nice also.

      Yes, I think Breaking out of the Bubble is such a symbolic image that no matter what the colour, it would have created attraction.

      Of course, the fact that the cover's blue makes me love it even more!

    Nice! I love blue in general, and I seem to be especially drawn to blue covers. There's just something calming about them? I don't know, that's maybe just me. Out of these, I particularly like the watercolours (4 + 5) because they're even more serene to me.

      Watercolours are so calming! I love that you don't need to worry about mistakes or cleaning them up.

      Unfortunately, they weren't the best books on that list. They weren't bad either, just not books I'd enthusiastically recommend.

    Wow. There are some really beautiful covers here. I love the ones that look like watercolour paints on them.

The Hero, by Rabindranath Tagore

 The narrative poem" The Hero" was written by Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore. Set in a young boy's imaginations this narrative has all the necessary elements and is rich in imagery. The characters, plot, setting, theme, climax and idea are all very clearly outlined.  The setting of the poem falls within the boy's imagination. It is described to have 'spiky grass' and a 'narrow broken path'. It is also mentioned that the country is 'strange and dangerous'. The rurality of the setting is further accentuated when Tagore talks of the 'cattle' and 'wide fields'.

I cannot remember my mother by Rabindranath Tagore

 The poem has been titled " I cannot remember my mother". It attracted me for some reason, for I thought that surely, a poem couldn't be completely empty. There had to be some form of nostalgia, or memory in a poem about no remembrance.  I realized after reading it, that I was right. In fact, the poem's title can be considered an oxymoron. However, the extent to which this poem is nostalgic, the amount of tiny details in this poem, wow. But I don't suppose Tagore was a Literature Nobel Laureate for nothing. This poem has sensitized its audience to the poet's colossal loss, though the poet ,it seems,has made no effort to do so. There is nothing superfluous about his writing, and the poem seems like a true expression of his love for his mother. It talks about how his mother managed to leave her presence on everything before she passed away, and how those little memories of his,form an incomplete memory of his mother.

One by Shawnee Kellie

  The poem "One" by Shawnee Kellie is a very interesting and thought-provoking piece of writing. The poem spreads the message that it is not only a large group of people that can make a change, but one idea, one thought, one human that can help make the world a better place.
