I am one of those people who will go on a hunt to find the prettiest cover for the book I want to buy, because only that one is good enough. I usually don't like the movie version of the cover as it has the characters from the movie on it and I don't want to spoil what they look like before I've read the book and imagined them myself. Book covers are very important in my choosing-a-book process, so here are some of my favourite book covers: Eliza and Her Monsters - Francesca ZappiaThis cover has pretty colours, a nice faded out effect on the background, pretty drawings combined with the real picture and the paint on the hands; all pretty things put together in a gorgeous cover. I love it! Me & Earl & the Dying Girl - Jesse AndrewsColourful!! I like that all the shapes and figures seem to be dangling from ropes, like they are little paper shapes. I think this cover is just so cute. See You in the Cosmos - Jack ChengI haven't read this book, but every time I'm at the bookstore it just draws me to it. The picture here doesn't do the beautiful blues on this cover justice. It's even prettier in real life and I could look at it for hours. On the Spectrum - Jennifer GoldI think at this point you've probably figured out that I LOVE PRETTY COLOURS!! On the Spectrum has the prettiest pastel colours that look like they're made with watercolour paint, and that combined with the simple drawings of buildings in Paris makes this cover one of my faves. (The book is officially coming out on September 12 and the story is as good as the cover, so I'd really recommend it!!) I'll Give You the Sun - Jandy NelsonI love the colour explosion on this cover. It goes perfectly with the title as well, as the colours look like rays of sunshine. This is another cover that's even prettier in real life, as the colours just seem to pop that bit more than in the picture. That's my Top 5 favourite book covers (in no particular order)!! Let me know what your favourite book covers are and why!
