So, we’re back with another Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly meme hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl.
This week’s topic is about 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 almost missed this week’s TTT because I didn’t plan my week out well enough but this was a fun prompt to do (and it’s one I don’t think I’ve done before)! 😂 So this is a random assortment of covers where the typography takes up a majority of the cover and I thought the font was pretty eye-catching. That’s pretty much it so let’s get to it!
Once More Upon a Time by Roshani Chokshi
A People’s History of Heaven by Mathangi Subramanian
Kate in Waiting by Becky Albertalli
Big Girl, Small Town by Michelle Gallen
Words in Deep Blue by Cath Crowley
Wicked As You Wish by Rin Chupeco
Good Talk: A Memoir in Conversations by Mira Jacob
Final Girls by Riley Sager
One of Us Is Next by Karen M. McManus
A Psalm for the Wild-Built by Becky Chamber
Do you like book covers that are mostly typography or do you prefer mostly images? What are some of your favourite typographic book covers?

You have some great examples of effective typography, Dini! Once More Upon a Time seems to fit the book so well. And the typography for Final Girls… so clever!

Thanks, Tanya! I think the typography for OMUaT really fits the story perfectly and I also love the one for Final Girls. It ended up working well with the author’s first name too 😍

Wicked As You Wish is so gorgeous!! It’s a book I don’t think I’d like, but always admire when I see the cover haha. It must be rare for you to get a prompt you’ve never done before. 🙂
I had Good Talk on my list as well!!

What I love the most about the cover for Words in Deep Blue is how you cannot tell those are books until you get closer. I think the first time I saw that cover, I thought they were tiles.
