I love oceanic book covers. Great list!
My TTT .
Oh, I might have been able to do an all ocean book cover one! I know several I really like, too!
Thanks for stopping by! Ocean covers seem to be a bit of a trend lately.
Oh, I think they’ve always been popular.
What a great idea for a cover theme, and it’s so pretty! I haven’t read any of them, but I do have Crown of Coral and Pearl on my TBR.

Thanks for stopping by 🙂
It’s funny how differently the ocean – or water in general – can be used on book covers. Sometimes it’s to create a calming vibe, sometimes a cozy one, sometimes a threatening one, etc. Very interesting.
Happy TTT!

Thanks for stopping by 🙂 I usually think of water as calming, but yeah, it’s pretty intense on some of these covers!
Oh, Deeplight and The Surface Breaks are gorgeous! What a great twist on this weeks TTT!

Thank-you! I think Deeplight is also the book on this list that I’m most excited to read.
Ooooh! There are lots of good ocean covers!! Love the cover for House of Salt and Sorrow!
Thanks! It’s a theme that’s really stood out to me in the past year or two.
