Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday! Hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl, this week it is Typographic Book Covers (Book covers with a design that is all or mostly all words. You can also choose to do books with nice typography if that’s easier!) (Submitted by Mareli @ Elza Reads).
I found this quite hard as most of the books that I have read have a dominant picture, however I thought that these ones fitted the bill (fairly well!):
Book Review – Someone in Time by Jonathan Strahan – SCI FI/ROMANCE
Random Things Tours – Book Review – Double or Nothing by Kim Sherwood – MYSTERY/CRIME/THRILLER
Book Review – The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton – MYSTERY/SCI FI
Book Review – Paris For One and Other Stories by Jojo Moyes – ROMANCE/SHORT STORIES
Random Things Tours – Book Review – Do No Harm by Jack Jordan – THRILLER/CRIME
Random Things Blog Tour – Book Review – Behind The Olive Trees by Francesca Catlow – CONTEMPORARY FICTION
Book Review – The Thursday Murder Club by Richard Osman – COSY MYSTERY
Book Review – The Man Who Died Twice by Richard Osman – COZY MYSTERY
Random Things Tour Blog Tour – Book Review – Kill Me Goodbye by A K Reynolds – THRILLER
Book Review – Chill Out and Cheer Up by Grace Grossmann – SELF HELP

Great list and picks of typographic covers. You did a great job with your picks despite not having too many options. My favorite is Kill Me Goodbye 😍.

Hi Emily! These ones are all great choices yes! The Me Before You Trilogy is also a good choice by Jojo Moyes. I also thought of Someone in Time, but didn’t use it.
Thanks for the shoutout!

Thank you. I do need to read more JoJo Moyes but I don’t do anything that could potentially be too emotional 😂
I wasn’t sure that I had read many books with typographical covers so had to use it 😂

Very striking typography on the Do No Harm cover. It looks so simple but the slice through it is attention-getting.

Yes! And the slice also has that shiny texture to it to make it stand out a bit more.

There were a couple of good stories in there, but they were surrounded by some not so good ones (to put it politely!)

Love that first cover – WOW, so colorful and dramatic! I really had fun with this topic – I guess because I was able to browse my Pinterest images for TBR. Thanks for stopping by.

I love the stories so don’t mind too much about the cover. I have to say though that for a Christmas present I have got the third book and it has pretty sprayed edges …
Same to you 😊

I also had some that had quite a bit of illustration too: my criteria for it was that the words were the main focus of the cover rather than they had to be the only thing there and I feel like yours definitely fit the same kind of mold!
