On The Cover is a feature I am going
to do every(ish) Friday, Where I pick one book
cover that sticks out, is really interesting or just
beautiful. I think the cover of a book is very
important, it's the first thing a person sees and
some of the time it's the reason why a person
will pick a book up and read the back. I will just pick a
book that catches my eye from throughout the week.
So come on Book Cover Lovers, share with me your favourite book covers.
My Pick This Week:
Summary
Tempest Maguire wants
nothing more than to surf the killer waves near her California home;
continue her steady relationship with her boyfriend, Mark; and take care
of her brothers and surfer dad. But Tempest is half mermaid, and as her
seventeenth birthday approaches, she will have to decide whether to
remain on land or give herself to the ocean like her mother. The pull of
the water becomes as insistent as her attraction to Kai, a gorgeous
surfer whose uncanny abilities hint at an otherworldly identity as well.
And when Tempest does finally give in to the water's temptation and
enters a fantastical underwater world, she finds that a larger destiny
awaits her-and that the entire ocean's future hangs in the balance.
