Romeo and Juliet with a vampire twist. Juliet is a vampire-hunter, Romeo, a vampire. I've heard this compared to Dracula in Love by Karen Essex. I really enjoyed Jay's irreverant, Buffy-the-Vampire-Slayer-inspired You Are So Undead to Me series, so I think this one will be fun.

A lesbian re-telling of the Cinderella story. I loved the society of Huntresses and I'm looking forward to reading the prequel Huntress.

This is the sequel to Dreaming Anastasia. Historical fiction/paranormal, sounds kind of awesome.

Savannah Colbert is half-vampire, half-wizard and struggles with forbidden romance! Sounds like my kind of book.

Can you think of any that I've missed? Let me know in the comments.
I love all these covers and of course they are all wearing beautiful dresses. I just finished Juliet Immortal last night and there aren't any actual vampires, it's more like soul stealing and corrupting people than bloodsucking. I'll try to write my review today.

I love your post idea! I've heard of most of those, but I hadn't connect how similar the covers are. :)
ReplyDeleteI have Juliet Immortal next on my things to read... just have to finish a few other books I'm reading first.
ReplyDeleteThese Cover trend posts are clever! I never really notice stuff like that unless you stick them next to each other. I am looking forward to Juliet Immortal and Crave whenever I get the chance to read them. Look forward to checking out more posts like this!
