Thanks to Five Alarm Book Reviews for hosting Shelf Candy every Saturday!
My Saturdays are a lot more fun because of it!
"The Apothecary" by Maile Meloy
Synopsis can be found here.
What's not to love about this gorgeous illustrated cover?
Beautifully done, soft and blurry lines both inside and outside the bottle. The bright orange belly of the bird sitting on the bottle, showing the size of the glass and the setting inside! Looks to me like London I say! The cover reminds me of a glass snow globe. We get to peer inside another world, a magical place and wonder what it's like.
The cover alone struck me and I bought it with only a glance to the summary flap. But after learning more about it, I am super eager to read this in the coming year!
