Okay guys! New Hints & a new cover challenge. There's only two more Friday's that I'll be posting new covers and extra hints so if there's one that you are having problems with leave me a comment so I can figure out how to hint without totally giving it away!
Next week I'll list all entries names (well I'll truncate them) with how many you have right, wrong, and empty
so you'll have one week to correct any you need to.
Is this not the most amazing cover ever? I was mesmerized by it months ago when I first saw it. It got me to thinking about how cover artists have used eyes so expressively the last six months or so. I started to collect covers where the eyes were especially expressive or odd as I was contemplating doing some type of contest with them. So for the next month see how many of these you can identify from covers you are already familiar with or run across on your blogging trips.
This time I didn’t leave the names available on the cropped cover. (For those of you who already submitted your “Guesses”, did you really think someone wasn’t going to rat you out? Seriously?)
Anyway, I did delete these entries. However, to anyone who clued me in on my stupidity, I going to give you 2 extra entries just because you were so honest. A few of you didn’t leave your email so I need it in order to give you your Atta Boy Entries. Drop me a note at alterlisa AT yahoo DOT com and tell me your GFC name and email and I’ll give them to you.
1. I'm going to offer my gently read ARC of Amber Argyles's "Witch Song" as a prize as well as $10 gift certificates.
Anyone who gets all 20 correct will be entered in a drawing by Random.org along with all the Atta Boy entries.
2. Everyone else who correctly identifies at least 14 of them will go into another drawing.
3. Okay guys, it's not THAT hard. Anyone
who gets at least 8 right goes in a third drawing.
I’ll leave this contest running for a month-ending on August 10th. Don’t be discouraged if you can’t figure some of them out. If you will leave me a comment for any that are stumping you, I’ll give some clues to help you out once a week. I'll also add a new cover each week for a bonus entry.
This contest is open to all who are GFC followers. If you are an old follower (followed before July 5th), I’ll give you two entries. If you Tweet or post to Facebook about this contest, I’ll give you an extra entry for each. Leave your link on the form for extra entries. Depending on how many entries I get, I’ll add extra gift certificates so spread the word.

Just checked out the Freedom Hop Post and realised that my comment on this post could be counted as an entry towards it - but I didn't leave an email so:

This is driving my crazy. I am familiar with most of the covers, but there's one I KNOW I've seen before, but I can't remember it's name!
By the way, what happened to the other eyes contest?
wow!this was a fun contest!!i enjoyed myself trying to guess the covers and rack my brains out:)
if this counts as an extra entry towards the freedom hop please count mine in!!
thanks for the giveaway!!

HAHA! You did?! xD That's hilarious! How? Was the cover names in the url or something?
I ACCIDENTALLY LEFT THE NAMES OF THE BOOKS ON THE CROPPED COVERS OF THE ORIGINAL POST SO HAD TO DELETE IT AND PICK DIFFERENT COVERS OR MIX UP SOME OF THE OTHERS>
IF YOU WERE ONE OF THE ONES WHO CLUED ME IN ON THIS, EMAIL ME AT
alterlisa AT yahoo DOT come
AND I"LL GIVE YOU TWO EXTRA ATTA BOY ENTRIES!
This was hard! I've seen 2 or 3 of these books but just can't remember their names! This is a very cool contest.

That was an incredibly fun challenge! Kudos to having such a unique one :).
I got all but four of them and two of them I KNOW I've seen, I just can't remember where!
breakkanamexd[at]aol[dot]com
Great contest and that was so much fun. I got most of them right away but there were four that stumped me and it took a little digging but I think I got them all :) Thanks for the great contest

Wow! This is challenge! I have 18 of them but two covers are unknown to me :( I saw 6 somewhere but I can´t remember the name and 16 is big unknown xD

The 5th one is killing me.I have no idea where to find it...it's annoying:))
Oh,I forgot: andreea_9120(at)yahoo(dot)com
I couldn't get #5 and #21, though I'm quite sure I've seen #5 before. Challenging game this is.
Such a good idea for a contest. I'm glad Witch's cover inspired it. So cool.
Amber
I am so bad at this I can't even enter the contest....

This was hard. I managed to guess (not sure if correctly) 20 out of 25 slots, although there was no pic for 25. Hahah, it's an awesome challenge though. I hope there'll be more.
