Book Cover Twins [Infographic]

Posted August 19, 2015 by Julie S. in Bookish Rants / 8 Comments

Book covers are something that often rub me the wrong way. So many books these days look the same, some to the extent that it becomes difficult to recognize a specific book or distinguish it from another. Why do so many book cover artists insist on using the same stock photos? Are there not enough photos out there to let a book have a somewhat original cover? Below is a lovely infographic that highlights the stock photo issue and other book cover issues. Enjoy 🙂

  1. Well, I’m reading Little, Big now – how strange to find out there’s another book out there with the exact same cover! This phenomenon was completely unknown to me… Like I said, strange…

      Yea it does kind of throw you off when you see it for a book you’re reading, and especially if you didn’t expect it to be a stock photo.
