34 Most Creative Book Covers You Have To See
Books are one of those items that need to have an brilliantly designed cover in order to attract readers and buyers. The book cover needs to provide a specific emotion and imagery so the viewer can get a good sense of what the story might be about before reading the blurb. So people can pick up the book and start reading, plain book covers don’t provide anything (unless the book is well known) and it’s essential to have a front cover that stands out.
There are many great designers out there to look through if you’re looking for some book cover inspiration. If you don’t have the time to browse bookshops for hours looking for book cover designs to inspire you, these thirty four most brilliantly designed book covers should help you out – there are so many book cover styles to see like typography, character design, landscape art and many more which tell a story in their own way!
