#5OnMyTBR is a bookish meme hosted by E. @ Local Bee Hunter’s Nook and you can learn more about it here or in the post announcing it. It occurs every Monday when we post about 5 books on our TBR. Thank you E. for the awesome graphic for these posts as well!

Hi everyone,

I LOVE weekly book memes with cover themes because I love celebrating all the beautiful artwork out there, especially the past few years with so many fantastic YA illustrated covers! They give me so much joy. But this week, we’re looking at five books on my TBR with blue covers!

Steel Crow Saga by Paul Krueger

Steel Crow Saga is a huge, epic fantasy novel that I plan to read next month. It’s a story where four different destinies collide in the aftermath of war. It’s loosely based on the conflicts between Japan, China, Korea, the Phillipines and India, and has MAGICAL ANIMAL COMPANIONS who help fight alongside you in battle. It sounds pretty damn epic.

The Silence of Bones by Jane Hur

This is a historical mystery set in Joseon, Korea in 1800, about a girl, Seol, indentured to the police department. She is assisting an inspector in the death of a noble, but when the inspector becomes the prime suspect in the case, Seol’s loyalty is tested as she becomes the only one who can find out what really happened.

Architects of Memory by Karen Osborne

This sounds like a super intriguing science fiction which releases in August this year. It’s about a terminally ill pilot who wants to find a way out of corporate indenture and then find a cure. But then her crew finds a genocidal weapon in the a starship wreckage and she is embroiled in a web of intrigue and betrayal!

I Killed Zoe Spanos by Kit Frick

Another mystery (apparently myseries have blue covers this year), this one inspired by Rebecca, I Killed Zoe Spanos follows Anna, who moves to a new town for a fresh start, but when she arrives, finds out she looks very similar to a missing girl. She investigates the case, and two months later, Zoe’s body is discovered in the lake and Anna is charged with manslaughter. But Anna’s confession is full of holes and so local podcaster, Martina, begins to try uncover the truth about who killed Zoe Spanos.

The Deep by Alma Katsu

The Deep is a fascinating sounding historical horror, set on the Titanic. The Deep follows two different timelines, one on the Titanic’s maiden voyage which ended in disaster, the other years later on the Titanic’s sister ship, the Britannic. This timeline follows a Titanic survivor who meets a young man who definitely could not have survived the fatal night from years ago…

That’s this week’s five beautiful blue covers on my TBR! I think The Silence of Bones cover is my favourite on this list, it’s just gorgeous! What’s your favourite book with a blue cover?
