Book Cover Trends

September24

Even though Bill was soaked through from running errands on Tuesday afternoon, Hurricane Teddy turned out to be almost cuddly. We didn’t lose power or internet, and there were no branches down on the lawn. In fact, we had no clean-up at all. Not something you want to be out in, but not much of a storm either.

I’m on to thinking about other things. My inbox today contained a book review by Kate at Books Are My Favourite and Best, of a nonfiction book about death and grieving.

My inbox also contained mail from BookBub, with ebook bargains including this “lucid and inspiring guide to modern marital bliss”.

The covers are startlingly similar. Or is it just me?

    They do …

    And I’m very glad Teddy was kind. It’s best to be over-warned than under-warned, I suppose.

    Absolutely, Sue. I never mind taking extra precautions but loathe seeing the barbecue sail across the yard.

    Thank goodness. Thanks for letting us know. I agree on those book covers. They almost look like seed packets and such different subjects with a similar look.

    I think that’s the connection I was making, Judy – in my subconscious anyway. 😉

    I love spotting similar book covers! Botanical covers have been huge in the last few years. I’m always drawn to them, as well as to ones with animals on.

    There are definitely trends, aren’t there, Rebecca? I’m sick to death of the back of “a strong woman”. 😉

    Now that I’ve posted about them, I’m seeing botanicals all over the place.

    I’m glad Teddy spared you.

    Those covers are similar in their muted tones but also quite different if you pick them apart. The seed packet comparison that someone made above is good one. I can see that too.

    You often see the detail that I overlook first time over, Ti. Thanks for pulling out those elements!
