13. A book that has an object that is repeated on the cover

[Emily, Conterminous Mod]

It's time for a cover scavenger hunt, and this week, you're looking for a book that has a repeated item on the cover. There are a few ways you could approach this prompt, from the obvious to the more subtle repitions.

Some Examples:


ATY Listopia: https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1...

What are you reading for this prompt? What would you recommend?

[Gem ~ZeroShelfControl~]

For this I have these listed:

[LeahS]

: The two queens are wearing a lot of pearls between them.

[Sunny]

Does this one work?

[dalex]

The three I’m considering:


the turquoise graphic is duplicated


there are two pillars in the background


there are two birds in the upper corners

[Janice]

Matilda by Roald Dahl (it has a lot of books on the cover) or The Borrow a Bookshop Holiday by Kiley Dunbar (it has a lot of colorful pennants).

I probably wouldn't count it, but it's your challenge!

I've decided to go with [bookcover:Olive, A..."

That was a 5 star read for me. It fits this year's Aging prompt.

[Judy]

I'm considering
The Bean Trees
How High We Go in the Dark
The Sentence

[Kathy]

My top choice is .
Others I'm considering:


Edit: I actually read

Recommendations:

[NancyJ]

A House in the Sky - on my tbr for a long time.
I own Other Birds, Tomorrow x3, All my puny sorrows, Ardent Swarm, and maybe Reading List, which all fit other prompts too, so they’re possibilities.

[Nancy]

or

[Marianne]

Replay has been on my list for quite some time! Looks perfect for the prompt

[Pam]

I plan to read China by Edward Rutherfurd. The cover has a repeated flower pattern. I’ve enjoyed the other books I’ve read by him so I have high expectations for this one also.

[Sheena]

I think it would work because there are a few trees on the cover.

[Dana]

[Pamela, Arciform Mod]

I did Hester

[Tracy]

I just finished by Eleanor Brown (hard to see on these tiny covers, but there are repeated flower and vases). This book had an interesting premise, and an unexpected story that involved the many types of family, variations of what we bring to family, and what we hope to have in a family. Solid read.

Some of the other books considered, with covers that best represented the intent of this prompt were:


(read this for another prompt) (not released until 4/25/2023)

[Sherri]

I read

[Marie (UK)]

I read The Whitstable Pearl Mystery 26/01/2023



There are 4 beach huts on the cover

[Tiffany]

I read

and would recommend: , ,

[Joy D]

For this prompt, I read:

Stuff Matters: Exploring the Marvelous Materials That Shape Our Man-Made World by Mark Miodownik - 4* - My Review

[Samantha]

I read Mad Honey for this, it started a little slow for me but it ended up being a 5 star read.

[Anastasia]

Starless

I am so counting the falling stars

[Anne]

I will be reading A Country Escape by Katie Fforde. I can recommend Gentlemen & Players by Joanne Harris.

[Joanne]

Went with Strange the Dreamer which I actually read back in 2017 when it first came out, but since I never got to the sequel, I read it again and plan to use the sequel for another prompt this month as well.

[Wendy]

I'm reading The Sellout by Paul Beatty for this one:

It's pretty wild.

[Bea]

I had 3 possible books planned but none appealed to me. So I looked at my shelf for completed prompt rejects (books planned but not used) and chose All the Birds in the Sky.

[Andrea]

For this prompt, I read Fingersmith by Sarah Waters. It has keys repeated on the cover.

[Jennifer W]

I'm going with . It's a free prime read from amazon, and it's been on my TBR for almost a decade.

[LeahS]

Another prompt swap around.

.

It's a fictionalised autobiography, about a year in the life of five year old Laura. Her parents were among nearly 50,000 Latvians deported to Siberia in the 1940s; unlike many, they survived and married, and where able to return to Latvia in the 1960s. The book is set in the first year of their return.

It is a beautifully written (and translated book). We see the countryside and her parents and grandparents' homes through Laura's eyes and also get glimpses of Siberia and of the fear of returning there, and of the effect of the Soviet occupation on the people.

[Joan]

For this one I read It Starts with Us. There were some flowers here and there that were kind of repeated. I wanted to slip this book in somewhere and this is where I slotted it.

[Stacey]

I'm writing you this poem from the limits of language
the here and there of constellations
transversal is the light that binds us

transversal es la luz que nos une

It's April. It's poetry month. For this one I read the bilingual Transversal: Poems (Camino del Sol) by Urayoán Noel, who brings us his Puerto Rican alma together with his musings on la ciudad. I love this cover, which is a good representation of how two things can meet at some point and yet, still be separate. Like PR and the Bronx.

[[deleted user]]

Invisible Women: Data Bias in a World Designed for Men. I'm still thinking about this book months after reading it, 5 stars.

[Severina]

I read The Echo Wife by Sarah Gailey, a very well-written and disturbing novel

[Dubhease]

I read Penguin Island which has a lot of penguins.

[LeahS]

I also read which has repeated bricks and cooling towers.

A coming of age memoir which deals with the author's difficult (and sometimes abusive) childhood, but which is also hopeful. It gives a good picture of post-industrial Scotland.

[Book Concierge]

I read ...

Eight Hundred Grapes – Laura Dave – 3***
This piqued my interest because of the setting in the Sonoma Valley, and the book jacket blurb led me to believe it would be a lighter, romantic read. There IS some romance involved … but … Georgia turns out to be a bit more complex that I originally gave her credit for. The resolution of the difficulties has to wait for a few complications to be ironed out, but the ending is still satisfying in a chick-lit romance sort of way. Not exactly tied up in a pretty bow … but the ribbon is there.

I read the graphic novel Living With Mochi which has repeated dots on the bed cover. Really funny!

I read Verity by Colleen Hoover, which i'm moving from "A book that is dark"

Actually, no I'm not. I read The Midnight Library (for a second time) for this prompt. Verity will stay in the "dark" along with Killers of the Flower Moon
