Top Ten Tuesday: Book Cover Trends I Like

This week the topic is our favorite book cover trends and lately I have been drawn to covers that exude simplicity.  Usually there are only a few graphics and a really fabulous font. Check out some of my latest favorites that I think are great examples of how a simple book cover can be eye-catching.


1.  Salt & Storm by Kendall Kulper (my favorite cover!)
2.  Brazen by Katherine Longshore
3.  Love and Other Foreign Words by Erin McCahan
4.  The Taking by Kimberly Derting
5.  Outlander by Diana Gabaldon
6.  Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell
7.  How to Love by Kate Cotugno
8.  The Vacationers by Emma Straub
9.  The One and Only by Emily Giffin
10.  The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

So, what do you guys think of some of my favorite "simple" book covers? Which ones are your favorites? What type of book covers have you been drawn to lately? Let me know!  This meme is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, so check it out!

    I love your book cover selections! My favorite is The Vacationers; pretty sure I knew I was going to buy that one as soon as I saw the cover, without knowing anything about the book! My faves are up on my Top Ten Tuesday, as well. Great post!

    Simple, pretty, and bright book covers are the best! I love Eleanor and Park's cover; I thought Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell was really lovely as well.

    I like them. Especially when they have a tiny bit of something cute like E&P.
