The Books I Loved Because of Their Covers
We all know by now that we definitely judge books by their covers. We just do. A good book cover design can honestly make or break our reading experience (if it even draws us in enough that we give the book a chance!) and I wanted to celebrate some of my recent favorites today. As a graphic designer myself, I'm majorly impressed with all of these beautiful creations, and feel so inspired by them.
This post isn't endorsing the book contents themselves (although I did love most of these!) but just strictly praising the cover designs -- it's all about the eye candy with this batch!
Tell me: which one is your favorite?

Bold colors, creative typography, quirky illustrations, hand drawn elements, layered imagery, large scale fonts... I'm obsessed. The inspiration is endless!
