Challenge: 4 Questions hosted by Loretta @ Between The Pages

Sitting this one out. It's US only and I've only read one of the four books covered by the questions, so...

Challenge: Covers hosted by Bailey @ Stiletto Storytime

Question 1: What is your favorite cover that has been revealed this summer and why? Post a link or picture of the cover if you want.

Question 2: Do you rely on the cover to help you choose whether you want to read a book or not?

Question 1 - Well, I really love the US cover for Days of Blood and Starlight:

I've been slowly dying all year because I can't yet read this book. I loved the first one, Laini Taylor is a great writer, and the story was magnificent.

Question 2 - I don't exactly rely on the cover to help me choose books, but the way the cover is designed is a great way to ler me know what kind of genre the book is, and whether I might like to read it. So the cover is a great way to grab my attention, but ultimately what makes me decide for this book instead of that one would be the description and the book's reviews.
