Do! Judge A Book By Its Cover is a regular feature on Pop! Goes The Reader in which I pay tribute to some of the best and brightest the publishing world has to offer in the way of book cover design. This feature is inspired by Katie’s feature Cover Love on her blog One Page At A Time. The idea is being used with her gracious permission.
Some of my favourite covers this week include Wicked Like A Wildfire by Lana Popović, The Library Of Fates by Aditi Khorana, Shadowhouse Fall by Daniel José Older, All The Wind In The World by Samantha Mabry, Wild Beauty by Anna-Marie McLemore, Fragile Chaos by Amber R. Duell, The Strange Case Of The Alchemist’s Daughter by Theodora Goss, The Wrath & The Dawn by Renee Ahdieh and An Unkindness Of Magicians by Kat Howard.
Please Note: I’ve done my best to credit the designers and artists responsible for the beautiful covers below, but was unable to find this information for a number of those listed. If you know of an uncredited designer responsible for any of these book covers, please let me know and I would be happy to include proper attribution in this post. Their work is lovely and deserves to be credited.
