1480438 Kristen,
At the bottom of the drop down when you type in a title, there's an option for either 'link' or 'cover'. The default is 'link,' so just select cover before you add.

1484728 When I saw this, I knew immediately who I was going to put up. Well, the book covers I would put up.

MY ALL TIME FAVORITES (they aren't fantasy though. My apologies for that.)

Along for the Ride The Truth About Forever This Lullaby Lock and Key Just Listen Dreamland

I absolutely ADORE the covers for the Sarah Dessen novels.

Another thing. I really envy the UK covers for almost everything I've ever seen.

Oh, and my friend got me onto Looking for Alaska. She's crazy about that book. It was a pretty good cover.

I actually really like the Twilight series covers.

Artemis Fowl and the Eternity Code (Artemis Fowl, Book 3)
Love that one, too.

Universe of Stone: A Biography of Chartres Cathedral A Universe of Stone

And I do like the new John Green designs
Paper Towns An Abundance of Katherines Looking for Alaska but now I have to get rid of my old Looking for Alaska so they can all match!

1480438 The Black TattooGideon the Cutpurse (The Gideon Trilogy: Book One) Great covers, disappointing reads.

1592338 Oh, this one got me good...The Secret Hour (Midnighters, Book 1)

Much better than the original look...The Secret Hour (Midnighters, Book 1)

And some of my childhood favorites:

Where the Wild Things Are: In the Night Kitchen,Outside Over There, Nutshell Library,Sign on Rosie's Door, Very Far Away This one blew my mind.

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe (paper-over-board) (Narnia) I hadn't even read it and I wanted to be in it.

The Little Prince Need I say more?

'Adult' books:

My Antonia Don't know why.

The Sound and the Fury It just looked cool.

Light in August Looked equally cool.

712966 The three Brent Weeks 'Night Angel' Trilogy book covers:

The Jaz Park covers:
One More Bite (Jaz Parks)Biting the Bullet (Jaz Parks, Book 3)Bitten to Death (Jaz Parks)Another One Bites the Dust

This cover on Tanya Huff's 'Wizard of the Grove' is beautiful:
Wizard of the Grove (Daw Book Collectors)

and Jo Chen's artwork on Buffy Season 8 and The Runaways (which you can't see because they are comics darnit).

OH! This lovely cover of Star Trek's 'Before Dishonor':
Before Dishonor (Star Trek The Next Generation)

I have more but those are my favs.

1069643 One of the things I love about GoodReads is that little thingy on the bottom right of the Message fields that says "add book/author". You click on it and it has tabs for book and author, and you can either post the title or the cover of the book, or the name or photo of the author. Click Add! Easy, done.

So, I know you love Poison Study (Study, Book 1) Magic Study (Study, Book 2) Fire Study (Study, Book 3) & Maria V. Snyder.

Right now I am also really digging Pretty Monsters: Stories Chains & The Willoughbys.

Not to mention Frankenstein Takes the Cake.

What are your favorite book covers of the moment?
