We’re chatting about covers on Chapter Break. ‘Cause you know we all judge books by covers, whether we admit it or not. We judge the style, the color and font choices, and just the overall look. That might not keep us from reading the book, but we do still judge.
Ooh what a fun cover! I like the green and red mixed together and not making me think of holidays. The poppies are a great look, definitely tie in with the drugs theme of the title.
I like the look of the bottle and serving spoon on the cover. Very cool old gothic style illustration. I also like the curve frame sprouting leaves.
The font, I like as well! You know me and somewhat swirly but really easy-to-read fonts are my fave.
This cover would definitely grab my eyes enough to make me flip it over and read the blurb. From the cover alone I would expect this to be a murder mystery story.
I also like this cover! I like how it looks like a piece of embroidery. Very fancy embroidery, for sure!
I’m rather fascinated with unopened blossoms. I find the potential there to be more intriguing than an already bloomed flower. The ones on this cover work really well here. I am also a big fan of the different shades of green. They blend together pleasantly.
I’m ok with the font. It’s a bit curly for me. But the white does stand out well against the green background. And it was a good choice to maintain the same color for the author’s name.
Overall, this cover did the trick and got me to read the blurb.
What are your thoughts on this cover?
I definitely agree that this cover makes me want to check out the book. I think it’s very effective!
