    I swear UK wins for some of the most beautiful covers. 😍 Quite a few of my books I paid more just so I could have the UK editions. Nevernight and ADSOM collectors edition are two examples.

    Yesss - The Binding is BEAUTIFUL naked! It might have the most foil of all the books I own. (I have that edition of Circe too, but since the foil isn't on the back...The Binding wins.)

  • @AnanasAbanaan
    @AnanasAbanaan Před 3 lety +1

    I was thinking that The Binding is one of the prettiest books I have and then you got it out! (I have the paperback and it has a really interesting texture, like a soft anti-slip coating)

    Raybearer is soooooo good. Put it at the top of your list. I will say that I enjoyed the audiobook immensely. I didn’t get caught up with the pronunciation of words, but also the narrator performed chants and songs and I was so entranced. 😍😍😍

    I also love foiled covers and the white background with a bit color like the mistborn and nevernight covers. And I always love animals on the cover. My faves are cats, foxes, wolves, dragons, owls, ravens & deers. And lots of beautifull covers have trees or leaves on them like The Name of The Wind.

    I do love foil and antlers (or vines and thorns) and anything that looks or feels like a linen bound book. But I also really love old fantasy covers that I grew up with. I think the best looking book on my shelf right now is The Language of Thorns by Leigh Bardugo, I just love it.

    I wish those editions of An Ember in the Ashes was not a limited edition, I haven't even started that series and I would by the whole series only for those covers, those books are stunning.
    My favourite covers I own is the special 10th anniversary edition of The Final Empire, that book is so pretty (also my fav book so...^^), the collector's edition of the Six of Crows duology, A Deadly Education, Foundryside and three books of a spanish series called Laila Winter (the first book has a horrible cover, but from 2nd to 4th the covers are close to perfection for me). Also the black version of the Rithmatist, looked for that cover everywhere until I found it! I'll stop now ^^'

    So many beautiful ones! I think I will go for 'The House in the Cerulean Sea' for favourite. Covers that I also really like are the Becky Chambers' ones, To sleep in a sea of stars and (this is a bit weird) Super sourdough by James Morton :D its a baking book without a dustjacket and it has metallic print on it, so almost like foil! The colours a just spot on.
