//Jesse's Girl// I feel like this is a good cover based on that it really sets the mood for what happens in the book. The cover also kind of uses the rule of thirds with the text being in the bottom and then leading to the two main characters walking together in the upper part. When I first saw the book I was drawn to it based on the picture since I honestly love romance stories and it was a really cute cover that immediately caught my eye. I like the font that they used for Jesse's girl which seemed to work also putting it in a more interesting color like purple helps it to stand out more. Also like I said before the picture is what really draws the reader in since it expresses the theme of the book well.
 * [|Summary]:** For a school project everyone at Hundred Oaks High everyone had to shadow someone at a job they could see themselves doing in the future. Maya Henry never thought that she would be shadowing Jesse Scott, Nashville's team idol. She never expected what would happen with the time that she spent with Jesse.

//Since You've Been Gone// Some art elements and principles that were good on this book cover would be balance since although some of the text is blocking the picture you can still clearly see what is going on making sure that it is not too overpowering. Also she used emphasis well with the word 'gone' being larger than anything else in the picture this was a good way to express what really happens in the book with Sloane being gone over the summer and leaving Emily to be on her own. The text in this picture also worked very well especially with the 'since you've been' and 'gone' being two different fonts. Since this also helps express what the book is about with Sloane being gone. Also the picture of Sloane and Emily also helps with the story since they have been best friends for the longest time, with Sloane helping Emily break out of her shell. Personally I feel like that could also be something that they could approve on since although it is a picture of Sloane and Emily that is only a small part of the story.
 * [|Summary]:** Sloane was the outgoing one the person who would take chances and risks well Emily is the more laid back nerdy friend who stays in her own shell. But for the summer Sloane leaves, leaving Emily to fend for herself only leaving behind her a to-do list of things that Emily is expected to do over the summer.

//Love? Maybe.// Some art elements and principles that were used well in this cover would be color and shape. Color is a big part of the cover with all of the different colored candy hearts and even the font being different colors it really helps the book stand out. This then ties into shape, since the candy hearts form the shape of the heart which helps fill the frame and also makes the book more intriguing. These candy hearts also tie into the story of the book since Piper works at a candy store and one of the things that her secret admirer would giver her is candy hearts. The text in this cover also helps make the book more intriguing since the two words of the book are two different colors. This helps the book stand out more and even balances with the rest of the cover since the rest of the cover is also really colorful.
 * [|Summary]:** Piper's birthday is on Valentine's although that does not mean that she is a romantic or in fact even likes Valentine's Day. But for this Valentine's Day her friends decide that they all need dates. Piper is set up with the most popular boy in school, well at the same time is getting heartfelt gifts from a secret admirer. Is Piper with the wrong guy?

//Summer in the Invisible City// Some art elements and principles that worked well for this book cover would be leading lines and shape. The leading lines are used with the two people in the picture holding hands which leads you from one person to the other. Shape is used with the city in the background which really works since instead of just using a plain picture of a city they just decided to use lights in the form of the city instead which really makes the cover more interesting. The text of the title also works really well since it is similar to the shape of the city in the background which helps make the city stand out more. Also the picture works with the idea of the story since Sam and Sadie would spend a lot of time in the city. I found the cover of this book intriguing since I really like the city in the background and how it's not just a plain city and then I also really like the font that the title is in.
 * Summary:** Sadie has her whole summer figured out she's going to befriend the popular girls, spend time with her absentee artist father and win back Noah, the swoony older guy. She wasn't planning on meeting Sam a funny and free thinking boy how makes her question all of her goals. But even after spending a lot of time together Sam says he still just wants to be friends. Do they end up being more and do they stay friends?
