Hi friends,
Top 5 Tuesday is back! Long hosted by Shanah @bionicbookworm (she was the creator), she has now new challenges awaiting her and Meeghan from@meeghanreads has become our new mastermind!!!
This week’s topic: orange and black cover as in Autumn vibes!
If finding covers with black was easy I wanted some with both colors on it and …it was not smooth sailing as I wanted books that I had read and loved! But I (mostly) did it!
And you’ll even have some quotes because, why not?
Everless by Sarah Holland
“I know better than to be afraid of stories”
― Everless
The Bird and the Sword by Amy Harmon
“You glow, Lark.” His hand climbed back up again and swept over my unbound hair. I swallowed, suddenly close to tears. Then why does no one see me? “I see you,” he said.”
― The Bird and the Sword
The City of Brass by SA Chakraborty
“You’re some kind of thief, then?”
“That a very narrow-minded way of looking at it. I prefer to think of myself as a merchant of delicate tasks.”
― The City of Brass
The Poppy War by RF Kuang
.
“War doesn’t determine who’s right. War determines who remains.”
― The Poppy War
Stolen by Lucy Christopher
“I can’t save you like that Ty.
What you did to me wasn’t this brilliant thing, like you think it was. You took me away from everything – my parents, my friends, my life. You took me to the sand and the heat, the dirt and isolation. And you expected me to love you. And that’s the hardest bit. Because I did, or at least, I loved something out there.
But I hated you too. I can’t forget that.”
― Stolen: A Letter to My Captor
Have you read any of these?
Thanks for reading!

I’ve read Everless and I didn’t enjoy it as much as I hoped. I loved City of Brass, and A Bird and A Sword! They’re wonderful reads! I really need to pick up The Poppy War! So far, I’ve heard nothing but great things about that book.
I definitely don’t have many books that would fit for this but I think all but one of my orange books has black on the cover too so that would definitely help me out!
Now that you mention it … yes. Yes. There are a TON of orange/black covers out there! Great choices!
I love Stolen! Lucy Christopher was one of my lecturers at uni!
It would be difficult to find this colour combo! The City of Brass definitely has a beautiful cover. 🙂
I love the covers for Everless and City of Brass…pretty!!
You made it harder trying to do black and orange in the same cover. I only just got to 5 orange or black from my shelves!
I rarely take the easy road LOL
Oooh!! I love that cover of Everless!! My copy is red and white, but that’s really lovely!!
Right Meeghan?
Love the cover of Poppy War! Haven’t read the book, but it’s on my TBR list.
Stolen was such a powerful story.
It ahd a big impact Tanya!
Great list! I loved the covers you picked and I love that you added quotes~
Thank you!!
OMG Everless is stunning.
Right?
I need to read The Poppy War. I’m not a huge fantasy lover, but I’ve heard so many good things about that book. I want to know why everybody loves it.
I think you’ll love it AJ!
This seems like it would be really hard to do. You found some good ones!
Thank you Tammy!
