Day 6 of this challenge: Choose 20 books that have stayed with you or influenced you. One book per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just covers. 6/20 💙📚 #booksky #20bookchallenge
Cover of Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. The background is white, with the author's name in a red font at the top, the title of the book in a red font at the bottom. The number 451 is the largest text on the cover and is easily twice the size of all other text on the image. In the middle of the cover is a humanoid figure seemingly made out of papers with writing on it, standing on a pile of books, both of which are covered in flames. The figure is standing upright with its head bowed and its left arm covering its face. The figure is clutching a folded paper hat in its right hand. This particular version of the book also has an awards seal on the cover in gold, with words surrounding a stylized image of an open book stating: "National Book Award Distinguished Contribution to American Letters"

Cover image of Invitation to the Game by Monica Hughes. The title and author are towards the top of the cover, with the text "Life is bleak until Lisse discovers the Game" above it. The image is of a young adult woman's face and upper body with outer space behind her and electric bolts arcing around her. The woman is wearing a red button-up top and a visor covering her eyes. Her mouth is open as if in surprise. The visor has an image of a desert-type landscape with plateaued rock formations jutting up from the ground level on the left and a red ball on the right of the image.

Cover image of Zel by Donna Jo Napoli. The title and author name are at the top of the cover image. The rest of the image is a drawing of a Caucasian girl with blond hair and a green dress on with long white sleeves holding and looking at a leafy green plant. In the background is a drawing of a young man on the left and an older woman on the right. The young man and older woman are both looking at the girl and are styled to look like they are a part of a tree trunk behind the girl.

Cover of Haunted Sister by Lael Littke. There is a silvery gray border with the word Haunted on top and Sister on bottom. The border surrounds a black and white image of two teenage girls. The girl on the right is more in focus and her eyes are a bright blue. The girl on the left is only half-shown and is more out of focus, in completely black and white, no accent colors.

1st edition cover of "The Girl of Fire and Thorns" by Rae Carson. The image is of a female face superimposed over the left side of a light blue gemstone in the middle of the cover. Surrounding it in each corner are thorn bushes with their branches pointing towards the central image of the girl in the gemstone. The text on the cover reads, from top to bottom, "Engrossing" -- Tamora Pierce (very top, in smaller letters) The Girl of Fire and Thorns (also at top, in large letters that take up the rest of the top half of the cover) Rae Carson (medium-sized letters at the bottom, under the girl in the gemstone image)
