Top Ten Tuesday: Flowers on Black Backgrounds

Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl

Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday!  This week’s theme is books with nature on the cover.  I decided to choose books with flowers on the cover, specifically flowers against a black background.  I’ve always found that combination striking.  I’ve read many of these, but I don’t have these gorgeous covers.  I wish I did!

  1. Great list! I really like that edition of Shakespeare’s Sonnets.

  2. Love these covers! I especially think the pink flowers on the Emma cover pop really well against that black backdrop!

      I agree! I think black and pink is a great combination.

      Thanks so much for visiting and commenting. 🙂
