Once Upon A Read-A-Thon Monday Updates

12:00AM - Started Cold Kiss by Amy Garvey

2:15AM area - Finished Cold Kiss by Amy Garvey, and wrote review for it (I had everything I wanted to say in my review already running through my head so I just decided to take the extra time before going to bed to write the review)

9:00AM - Woke up and started Before I Wake by Rachel Vincent.

10:30AM - Took a break to take a shower and then take books to library that were due (when I had said car incident mentioned below, which put me back an hour in reading.)

1:03PM - Started reading Before I Wake from about page 73 where I left off.

5:23PM - Finished Before I Wake! And Started Spark by Amy Kathleen Ryan (I'm only about 30 pages in right now)

6:04PM - Participated in Bailey's Mini Challenge!

So I'm doing Bailey @ IB Book Blogging's mini challenge (I meant to do it earlier, along with posting my updates earlier but I had a incident with my car (it suddenly lost power for some reason, but we think we know the problem so its all good) that I had to deal with first, so it put me behind an hour or so). So here's my answers to her questions!

1. What is your favorite cover that has been revealed this summer and why? Post a link or picture of the cover if you want.

My favorite... Hmm.. Tough choice since there has been literally a ton of awesome covers revealed this summer so far but I'd have to say Unravel Me by Tahereh Mafi! I just love the colors on the cover and I love the eye and how it looks way more than on the redone cover of Shatter Me. It's making adjusting to the new covers easier especially since Unravel Me's cover is such a beauty to look at. I posted the link to my cover reveal of it if anyone hasn't seen the cover for it, just click the title.

2. Do you rely on the cover to help you choose whether you want to read a book or not?

I don't rely on the cover  to help me decide if I want to read a book. Though a pretty attractive cover will definitely pull me in to wanna pick up the book and maybe read the back cover or inside flap of it (or its blurb on Goodreads) to see if I wanna read it.
