I participated in Birthstone Books Covers for the first time in August, and now I’m hooked! Leslie at Books Are the New Black hosts this fun monthly meme — and since I love anything related to spotlighting amazing book covers, I just had to jump in.
The rules are simple:
Mention the creator (Leslie @ Books Are The New Black ) and link back so she can see your post! Pick 5+ book covers that match the current month’s Birthstone.
HAVE FUN!
I love the beautiful color of aquamarines!
According to gemstones.com:
Aquamarine is the blue to green-blue gemstone variety of beryl. It is the birthstone for March. The name aquamarine comes from two Latin words aqua marinus meaning “water of the sea”. The color comes from trace amounts of iron in the stone. Aquamarine is typically greenish blue in nature, so it is heat treated to remove the yellow component, and to produce a true-blue color. Brazil is the largest producer of aquamarine, but fine quality stones can be found around the world.
A famous example of aquamarines:
Onward to the books!
Searching my physical and virtual shelves for some pretty amethysts… and here’s what I’ve found:
Do you have any favorite aquamarine book covers to share?
Bookshelf Fantasies 
You picked fabulous Aquamarine book covers. This is my birthstone! A Winter’s Tale is my favourite Shakespeare play.
Happy birthday!! Aquamarine is so beautiful. I love A Winter’s Tale too. I read it last year, but have never seen a production of it, and I’d love to.
Hard color to find, but one of my favorites. 😀
It’s such a pretty gemstone!
What a lovely selection😁
Thanks!
Blue is my favorite color, so the fact that this is my birth stone is fitting. 😉 These covers fit aquamarine so well!
Happy birthday! What a beautiful birthstone to have!
I really like the Lady of the Rivers – which I read some time ago and enjoyed.
Lynn 😀
I have a copy, but haven’t read it yet! I had a goal to read the various Tudor books by Philippa Gregory that I’ve missed over the years, and this would be the first once I finally get around to doing it!
I am very excited for the new Emiko Jean!!
I hope you love it! I’ve read it already, and had a mixed reaction to it, but I’d be curious to see how it works for you!
Ahhh, okay… it’s lower on the TBR so not sure when I’ll get to it. I’m sorry it didn’t work out for you!
