Book Cover Finds

If I were walking through a bookstore, I do believe I would stop to see what this book is about. Though the words are tilted and coming out of the book, you can still read it.

When looking at the book covers, I scanned them like I would if I were looking for something to read. Everytime I passed one with an upside picture, I stopped because it wasn't what my eyes expected. This cover also uses pleasant color combinations.

I tend to be drawn towards simplicity and beautiful photography. This cover has both, and it is not overcrowded with eroneous graphics.



This cover is too fun to pass by. Of course it is a Stephen King book, and I would expect no less from one of his book designs. The optical illusion lets on to what the book may be about.




Maybe it is because I love news print, but this cover goes against my "simplicity" loving when it comes to books. Not only would I stop to read the title, but I would probably read everything else on the cover.
