Young Adult Botanical Books - Book Lounge by Libby

What this episode covers

Jill is joined by OverDrive librarian, Claire, to chat about all things delicate and dangerous with this botanical cover trend. While the floral trend has been around for awhile, there's been an uptick in covers that have botanical elements that look more alluring and dangerous. They discuss what is it about these covers, what genres seem to use this style, and a whole host of book recs if you've been meaning to check out something creepy and covered in flowers. Emma was unable to join but Jill calls out some of her favorite picks, too! Jill’s Picks: Horrid by Katrina Leno The Sacrifice by Rin Chupeco Where Darkness Blooms by Andrea Hannah Claire’s Picks: Delicious Monsters by Liselle Sambury This Poison Heart by Kalynn Bayron House of Hollow by Krystal Sutherland Emma’s Picks: Blood and Moonlight by Erin Beaty Foxglove by Adalyn Grace The Depths by Nicole Lesperance Readers can sample and borrow the titles mentioned in today's episode on OverDrive.com or in Libby.
