This is a list of five books that I randomly picked-up and really enjoyed. Sometimes a cover is super appealing, the synopsis sounds interesting, or the title is just plain cool. You go out on a limb, and find a new favorite series, or auto-buy author.
The Rook by Daniel O’Malley
Dream London by Tony Ballantyne
The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott Lynch
Malice by John Gwynne
Sandstorm by James Rollins
I would love to hear about your favorite blind-buys so I might find some more awesome books!
Powder & Page 
Three of my absolute favorite blind-buys?
Lexicon, by Max Barry;
The Night Circus, by Erin Morgenstern (I read this before the major hype set in!);
Girl on a Wire, by Gwenda Bond
All of these books are super engaging, the covers are WAY pretty, and I picked them all up on gut instinct alone pretty much!
