  • Cover for THE BONE BRIDES, by Marley Rose-Teter. The cover’s main color palate is glowy blues and aquas and features two girls holding hands while standing face-forward. One girl has a missing eye and a place her torso reveals instead a ribcage. The other girl has a hand that has become skeletal. In a satchel the second girl wears sits a skeleton-rabbit. Behind the girls looms a large skeleton-deer, with one antler replaced by vines. Very moody and atmospheric. The book has pale-green sprayed edges, stenciled with deer skulls and the same antler/vine combination.
