On The Cover #42


 On The Cover is a feature I am going to do every(ish) Saturday, I will 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:

Perfect Ruin (#1 Internment Chronicles)
by Lauren DeStefano


Summary from Goodreads

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Chemical Garden trilogy: On the floating city of Internment, you can be anything you dream. Unless you approach the edge.

Morgan Stockhour knows getting too close to the edge of Internment, the floating city in the clouds where she lives, can lead to madness. Even though her older brother, Lex, was a Jumper, Morgan vows never to end up like him. If she ever wonders about the ground, and why it is forbidden, she takes solace in her best friend, Pen, and in Basil, the boy she’s engaged to marry.

Then a murder, the first in a generation, rocks the city. With whispers swirling and fear on the wind, Morgan can no longer stop herself from investigating, especially once she meets Judas. Betrothed to the victim, he is the boy being blamed for the murder, but Morgan is convinced of his innocence. Secrets lay at the heart of Internment, but nothing can prepare Morgan for what she will find – or whom she will lose.


Paperback, 352 pages
Expected publication: October 3rd 2013 by HarperVoyager

  1. The cover is spot on in relation to the blurb. I haven't read Wither but heard about it so much that this has been pushed up my TBR

  2. The girl on the cover looks like someone I know, but I can't quite work out who! I prefer the US cover just a little more, though I do like this one. Can't wait to read it! Thanks for sharing, Carly. :)
