I thought it was about time to shine some pretty lights on pretty covers, mostly because it’s been a while since anything got me excited. Is it just me, or does YA feel like it’s having a bit of a dry spell? I haven’t heard a whole lot of hype about any one book for some time, and none of the covers I’ve seen crawling off the shelves do our genre justice. There are still a ridiculous number of pretty dresses on pretty girls, but they are mixing it up because at least they don’t all look sad anymore. Now they don’t seem to have any particular expression at all! I’m so over this look. SO OVER IT. I can’t even bring myself to read the backs of them anymore.

My name is Sommer and I'm a writer from the Midwest. I am currently working on a YA novel about superheroes, reading as much as I can, blogging, and saving the world.
I don’t like any of these covers.
The one for Breathe is cool.
