It's definitely a favourite of mine from the Kelley Armstrong covers. And I loved The Woman in Cabin 10 cover too. I hadn't seen the cover for The Incident On The Bridge, though. Very mysterious and cool. I do think my favourite covers on here are the Becky Chambers ones, though. I do love a good starry cover, I'm simple like that.Becky Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14938602345709426466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3952534890282357396.post-3421459243962474412016-12-20T20:32:36.384-08:002016-12-20T20:32:36.384-08:00You seemed to like a lot of water/starry sky type ...You seemed to like a lot of water/starry sky type of covers.
