Condon-Book+Cover



This book cover is great because the design has a hidden picture. The silhouette of the quotation marks create a persons face which is relevant since the book is about peoples names and what they call themselves. They also create great rhythm in the piece, and the color of the book is simple yet eye catching. This book would catch my eye and other customers because it's mysterious with all of the black and the simple design.



This book cover uses great portrait photography. You see Amy's trademark look, bold eyeliner and dark hair. It clearly shows what the book is about, using great emphasis on her eye, and using space in a unique way by having negative space on the left and the subject in the middle/right. Because of the dramatic picture, this book would attract me and other customers.

This book cover uses great typography and line. The cord of the microphone leads your eye from the top to the bottom of the book, reading the title easily. It also has good balance which is key because the title seems like it should be busy (since it's long), but it's not. The contrasting colors and bubbly design attracted me and most likely other customers as well.
