Friday Face Off: The Tapestry of Fate (Amina al-Sirafi, #2) by Shannon Chakraborty

FFO

Today I’m returning to the  Friday Face Off, originally created by Books by Proxy).  I’ve missed these for the past few months and so would like to get back to comparing covers (and hopefully I will be updating this page with a new banner.  This is an opportunity to look at a book of your choice and shine the spotlight on the covers.  Of course this only works for those books that have alternative covers (although sometimes I use this to look at a series of books to choose a favourite). So, if you have a book that has alternative covers, highlight them and choose your favourite.  If you’re taking part it would be great if you leave a comment/link so I can take a look at what you’ve chosen.

This week I’ve chosen a book that I shall be picking up soon and I’m really excited to get to, The Tapestry of Fate (Amina al-Sirafi, #2) by Shannon Chakraborty. Again this week, only two covers. Take a look:

My favourite:

I like both covers to be honest, the lovely purple tones of the first and the shiny city in the background but on balance I love all the little details and the contrast with the bottle green and orange.

Which is your favourite this week?

Countdown to 2024 Day 26: Feeling bloated, a palate cleanser

Today is day 26 of my countdown to 2024.  Using a series of prompts each day I will post a book title that I believe fits the prompt.  The aim is to highlight as many books as possible that I read from 2023 and shine the spotlight on them once again (although for some prompts I will be looking at future reads).  A list of prompts can be found here if you wish to join me in counting down to 2024.

Today’s prompt: Feeling bloated, a palate cleanser

For today’s prompt I’ve chosen a book that was a great deal of fun with a fantastic cast of characters, sea monsters and adventures on the open sea.  What’s not to love.  The Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi by Shannon Chakraborty.
