This is a new meme hosted by Sugar & Snark. It came about when Sugar was wondering which cover to use for her #70 Cover of the Week post. Sugar kept on thinking of more than one, and they all seemed to have a theme/characteristic. So she decided to switch things up a bit!
Each week we will post a characteristic and choose 5 of our favorite covers with that characteristic. If you want to join in and share your 5 favorite covers with the week’s particular characteristic, then just make a post, grab the meme picture (or make your own) and leave your URL in Linky (so we can visit). You don’t even need to participate, just stopping by and saying hi would be great! Don’t forget to stop by the other participants!

I love your skull choices! I hadn’t really realized all the Ellie Alexander covers have skulls in them!
I realized the last one had a skull, and then I found it on the newest one, so I went back and was looking at the earlier covers. I didn’t ever notice the skulls on the first two in the series!
I think Devotion and Bread of the Dead are my favorites. 🙂
Oh many amazing covers!! Devotion is by far by fave from your picks!!
