Cover Wars: Shadow of the Fox by Julie Kagawa


In the book world, things are always changing for better or worse. 
One of those changes is the book covers. We usually see those changes made from the hardcover book to its paperback partner or even from the US cover to another countries cover. Sometimes those changes bring out the awesome-can-I-hang-this-on-my-wall to I'm-going-switzerland-on-this to the dreaded-what-the-bleeping-hell-were-they-thinking reactions in us.

I don't know about you but the book covers are always the first thing I look at, and sometimes I want the books just because of the cover. I want that awesome-ness on my shelf. I'd be lying if I said I haven't bought the same book just because the cover was different.


COVER WAR #1

SHADOW OF THE FOX BY JULIE KAGAWA

Red Cover is from the Owlcrate book box and it is their edition

Black Cover is the original cover

I can't say that I have a favorite from these two because I personally love red and black.

Fun: They call me... My Hunger Games Name



Hey Readers/bloggers! 
I thought I'd try to start a small feature here called "They Call Me..." 
Have any of you ever heard of Ron White? Yes..No. Well if you have then that's why the line "They call me" sounds familiar. If not then let me explain, Ron White is a comedian and one of his jokes (and title of an album I think) is called They call me Tater Salad. So basically that's it. :)

What this feature is about is having fun and making up those names from the Name generators. You know what I'm talking about right? Usually, you'll see them pop up on your facebook feed. I'm always seeing them and sometimes I'll answer them by putting it in a comment. I thought it would be fun to have a place where everyone can see each others. After you figure out what your name is put it in the comment section below and let's have fun and talk about the names that it makes.



I might even get brave and actually make a few name generators myself once I feel comfortable with this feature. I have a few in mind already, and it's book related what! Also, I'm going to try and add some gifs that fit with it because people seem to love gifs!




Girl name
Valeria Baxwoll (Married)
Valeria Velorum (Maiden Name)

Guy Name
Venture Inchcape
Venture Lapworth
