The Friday Face-Off was created by Books by Proxy, where each week bloggers can showcase books with covers centered around a weekly theme. You can visit Lynn’s Books for a list of upcoming themes. Join in the fun each Friday by finding a book whose cover is based on the theme!
This week’s theme: A cover that is predominantly gray.
I love these color themes, because I love finding as many covers in that color as I can to share with you. This is a great theme for the first day in November, which seems like it should be a gray, cool and blustery day (although it’s probably 90 degrees where I live!). Here is a selection of gray covers to put you in the mood:
Strange Practice is excellent! I loved the rest of the series. I hope we’ll get to see more of those characters in the future. đŸ™‚

I really enjoyed Strange Practice as well:-)
Lots of cool covers! đŸ™‚
I know, so many grey covers!
Wow, this one is a long list of covers. I think I have to pick The Mirror Empire as my favorite. I just love Richard Anderson’s artwork. He’s been doing some amazing covers, like Kings of the Wyld, the Time Salvager series by Wesley Chu, a number of books by Brian Staveley. If only I’d actually read any of the books he’s created covers for…. I’ll change that eventually, promise! đŸ™‚
I know right?! There are so many grey covers that it’s hard to decide. Picking one out of a bunch seems like the better way to go. You and I think the same way this week. Unfortunately, I haven’t heard any of these but I would choose Peter MacLean’s Priest of Bones. I like the sword. PS: I hope Halloween was fantastic for you and I ‘m so glad my blog is still accessible đŸ˜›
Oh my goodness! You’ve knocked it out of the park this week, Tammy:)). What a fantastic selection. As for favourites – Miranda and Caliban has to be there, simply because it is such a searingly beautiful book… My second choice is The Drowning Eyes because it’s such a lovely cover.

Nice collection of grey covers! I see my Artemis winner among them, yay!
I like most of these… but I’m especially intrigued by The Atrocities. Haven’t heard of it or seen it before so I’ll have to check it out!
Great collection of covers!! I think I like the Drowning Eyes best! And I had the same problem, I kept finding books that were kind of grey but then I decided they were more of a blue haha
Something about all these gray covers together is really appealing to me lol.
Can’t believe I missed this. What a fantastic collection of covers. I love it. Girls With Sharp sticks immediately jumps out at me.
