My Top Ten Books That Focus On This Particular Cover Trend


For this week's Top Ten Tuesday I decided to focus on a cover trend that highlights the title of the book, specifically the text.  It's these types of covers that have always drawn my eye to them.  I love the way a font, color, or size of the book title can convey so much about the story.  Or it may do the opposite: make you wonder so much about the story.

How do you feel about this cover trend?  It's not something new, but it's definitely something I am seeing more of in 2014.  Be sure to check out The Broke and the Bookish for more details on this awesome weekly feature.

  3. Oh, great pick! I do love a good cover that is just about the title and nothing else. It really pulls you and and allows you to make your own decision what the book will be about without being swayed by a picture that may or may not be a good representation of the actual story.

  6. Interesting typography with a hint of graphics tied in are my favorite kind of covers too. A very eye catching way to convey the spirit of a novel.

  11. This is a really great cover trend to focus on, it's one I would have never thought about this trend. I would say that out of all of these, Lets Get Lost is probably my favorite.

  12. I loooooooove these kinds of covers! Not all books have to have a real photo on the cover - artsy words can often be even more eye-catching than a great cover image. (Plus there's no chance it'll mess with your imagined vision of what's in the book - character, setting, etc!)
