#CoverCrush: The Kitchen House

I will freely admit that I judge books by their covers. The cover is usually what first captures my attention when browsing Goodreads or Netgalley. Actually, in all honesty, it isn't just usually, it's pretty much all the time. The cover determines if I look at the synopsis and reviews.

I saw this cover a couple of months ago because my friend Heather used it for her Cover Crush post. I loved it immediately. 

A child. A set of intimidating keys. The girl's hands are folded as if she is waiting. Waiting for what? Is she in trouble? Is she anxious? Who is she and what is her story?

What about you? Any book covers capture your attention this week?
