This was another one of those topics that I just noticed on a lot of covers, so I decided to start marking them down and share them with you :-) But is it just me, or is there something sexy about hoods? Maybe it's the mysterious vibe they have? I don't know, but I kind of love them, so here are some awesome covers that have characters wearing...
When Lio, a cupid, shoots a closeted human with a gay lust arrow and accidentally interferes with a true love arrow, he makes a deal with the Aztec god Ethan to try and get out of trouble, but the deal ends in a way Lio never expected: passionate and spontaneous sex with the supposedly straight Aztec god. But when Lio gets caught anyway and suspended from his job, Ethan offers to help, and he...

Feathers are interesting little things, aren't they? And pretty. But did you know peacock feathers are considered to be bad luck, especially for performers? I learned that in a book (Girl on a Wire, to be precise), which seems very fitting considering this is a book blog. There's also a belief that "feathers appear when angels are near" and that feathers are a message from loved ones who have...
So I seem to be on a bit of a zombie kick lately, reading and adding to my TBR quite a few books that have zombies as main characters or love interests, and even some that have the more stereotypical, shambling, post-apocalyptic kind of zombies. I've never been a huge fan of zombies, even though I have started giving their books more of a chance, but that doesn't mean I can't be a fan of their...

Ok, I had way too much fun with this post. This is not the official topic this week, but I didn't care for the official topic and got inspired when I came across one cover in particular and was mesmerized by how gorgeous the character's hair was, so here we are. I happen to love long hair, I think it's pretty, so basically I just went and found a whole bunch of covers with long, flowing,...
I suppose this could be interpreted in a couple different ways, but my mind immediately thought *bow and arrow*, so that's what I went with. And luckily, fantasy books seem to have lots of bows and arrows! It just seems to be the weapon of choice, even if the stories exist in a time and place where higher-tech weapons are available. I suppose there's something romantic about them. Even when...

They will both have to figure out who they can trust if they're going to escape the clutches of the Seelie and Unseelie...
