Here are some of my favorite covers for January 2012: The Skies Edition
Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi
Lights in the sky! I love it. It gives off this almost Aurora Borealis effect, which is something that has always fascinated me. I also like it that the girl is not wearing a dress and is walking like she's in a movie and there's something exploding behind her. The brambles make it look wild. And I love it that the font has that same lit up sky effect that I adore about the background.

A Million Suns by Beth Revis
Space! I could look at space images all day long. They're beautiful and shiny and sparkly and amazing. Just like all the shiny, sparkly, spacey goodness happening on this cover.

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
There are plenty of people who don't like this cover. And I get that. It's kinda randomly plain. But I love the bright blue color that reminds me of the sky on a pretty day, and the graphic simplicity of it has grown on me. The contrasting graphics and text have this yin and yang thing going that I can appreciate on the cover of a novel that is sure to be bittersweet. I like the idea of this book sitting there, among hundreds of girls in dresses, and looking different.

Do you also like any of these covers, or am I alone in this? There are a lot of books with gorgeous covers this month. Are there any that you're tempted to buy for the cover alone? What new little works of art will you be picking up for your shelves this month? Let me know in the comments!
