Judging books by their covers, 6

Just want to share some books whose covers I love! Once every 4 weeks, I'll post 4 books and super short synopses of books whose covers catch my eye.

1. Masquerade by O.O. Sangoyomi (Forge Books, 2024): Set in a wonderfully reimagined 15th century West Africa, Masquerade is a dazzling, lyrical tale exploring the true cost of one woman’s fight for freedom and self-discovery, and the lengths she’ll go to secure her future.
2. The Circus Rose by Betsy Cornwell (Clarion Books, 2020): A ueer retelling of “Snow White and Rose Red” in which teenage twins battle evil religious extremists to save their loves and their circus family.
3. The Tea Dragon Society by K. O'Neill (Oni Press, 2020): After discovering a lost tea dragon in the marketplace, Greta learns about the dying art form of tea dragon care-taking from the kind tea shop owners, Hesekiel and Erik. As she befriends them and their shy ward, Minette, Greta sees how the craft enriches their lives—and eventually her own.
4. Galaxy: The Prettiest Star by Jadzia Axelrod (Author) and Jess Taylor (DC Comics, 2022): It takes strength to live as your true self, and one alien princess disguised as a human boy is about to test her power. A vibrant story about gender identity, romance, and shining as bright as the stars.
