Song of Blood and Stone managed to hold on to it's throne as the competition becomes even more fierce. This week it's up against Leigh Bardugo's next book Six of Crows.

The two covers are quite the opposite in many aspects. While one focuses on bright colours like pinks and reds, the other is made up of shades and blues. However, both the covers meet in the title typography department. Although they are different, they resemble each other nicely. But, mostly they add character to the covers they were designed for.

Song of Blood and Stone has had many dominant victories, and last week wasn't one of them. In fact, the covers tied so I did the equivalent of a virtual coin flip where I went on random.org, assigned a number to each cover, and generated it. Song of Blood and Stone prevailed. Is its reign coming to an end? The Decaying Empire would sure like to test that. 

Colour, moody covers everywhere! The Decaying Empire takes the dark colours with splashes of orange, more like a destructive fire than a decaying one, i would say. Song of Blood and Stone promises a little more serenity with a calm pink and a sky full of possibilities.

Song of Blood and Stone has dominated thus far and for good reason. This week it's up against another formidable foe, Carrie Ryan's Daughter of Deep Silence.

Both are brilliant covers with fantastic use of space. Daughter of Deep Silence looks stunning with the depiction of a blue wave on the wall behind her. Song of Blood and Fire fills the space with a starry sky within a silhouette of a woman. Love them both.

Song of Blood and Stone is lethal. It has systematically destroyed every single one of its competitors and it doesn't seem to be slowing down. That doesn't stop The Girl at Midnight from giving this a go!

Purple vs. pink! Pretty swirls vs. more pretty swirls! Great font vs. great font! Only difference is, one of these covers has a person on it. Both covers feature the starts, and both are lots of fun. Which shall win?

Song of Blood and Stone is making a very early bid for the cover of 2015, because it has won every week of 2015 thus far. Zodiac is the next challenger!

These covers are both super gorgeous, and somewhat similar. It's the use of colour and the subtle design bits that really make both covers outstanding. The title is bold and distinctive, and there are lighter and the use of light versus dark colours is creative for both covers. Song of Blood and Stone does it as a silhouette, and Zodiac does it with a nice gradient mix. I wouldn't mind reading either of these, based on purely on the cover!

Now, dear readers, it is up to you! Vote for your favourites! And may the best cover win!

Song of Blood and Stone continues its fabulous run, destroying all other covers in its path. It's quite remarkable, but The Darkest Part of the Forest isn't shaking in its boots. These covers are ready to rummbllleee! (Sorry, it's late, I'm tired.)

The similarity has to be in the distinctive fonts. Song of Blood and Stone is elegant and sleek. The Darkest Part of the Forest has a classic vibe to it. The Darkest Part of the Forest draws attention to this font and the creepy herbs growing along with it, and that butterfly too. Song of Blood & Stone almost makes its font appear like it's glowing against the night sky, like some runaway wisps of the northern lights. 

In any case, it's up to you to decide which cover shall win! You have one week to vote!

Welcome to 2015! A whole new year, a helluva lot of brilliant new covers. This week will begin with one of Mari's choices, Both of Me against Song of Blood & Stone!

Both covers have stars and an interesting vibe. Song of Blood and Stone brings on the deep pink with very swirly fonts, while Both of Me portrays mystery through its starry sky. In any case, Both covers are definitely pretty. But there is only one winner!

The end of the year is wrapping up, and this Cover Wars will be a little different. You will get two weeks to vote because next Tuesday will be the annual, much anticipated Cover Wars yearly roundup that crowns the best covers of 2014. 

Song of Blood and Stone is the last cover to win in 2014, and the New Year will emerge with a battle between this pink perfection and Courtney Summer's dark All the Rage. 

These covers both feature women, cool font, and some sort of special effect- silhouettes for Song of Blood & Stone, blurring for All the Rage. I adore both of them and this one is tough because they both do a lot of the same good things- they have a big, interesting title, they draw the eye, they have a clean, clear colour scheme. It's really a matter of which cover appeals to which reader more. 

So, what do you think? You have two weeks to enjoy and vote!

What else is there to say but The Heart of Betrayal has been crushing it? Will it continue its path of obliteration against Song of Blood and Stone?

Pink vs blue! The colour schemes are so different but both covers draw the eye with stunning font. Song of Blood and Stone does that really cool silhouette cutout thing, whereas Heart of Betrayal uses the red to pop against the blue to create focus. Both covers are pretty, to say the least. 

Which cover shall win?
