Welcome to this week's edition of Top Ten Tuesday which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week the theme is Book Covers Featuring Cool/Pretty/Unique/etc. Typography (Typography is the art of arranging letters so they look visually appealing and more interesting than, for example, the body text of this blog post you’re reading now.). I am going to broaden the theme a bit to pick books where there are more than one font on the cover or where I found them interesting in some way.
Dinner at the Night Library by Hika Harada - I like how they fit the title, author and translator all in the sky of the illustration by putting it on an angle (my review)
Everyone on this Train is a Suspect by Benjamin Stevenson - I like the mix of fonts, and the way they did the word train (my review)
The Wartime Book Club by Kate Thompson- Three different fonts probably shouldn't work but it does (my review)
Us Against You by Fredrik Backman- This is a different font choice
Good Spirits by B K Borison - I like the font choice here
Dear Mrs Bird by A J Pearce - I really like how the cover looks like a typewriter (my review)
Escape to the Northern Lights by Carrie Walker - chose this purely because of the curly bit on the end of the word Escape (my review)
The Phone Booth at the Edge of the World by Laura Imai Messina - I like how they use all lower case on this cover (my review)
Hooked by Asako Yuzuki - This book isn't out yet, but I like how the title is vertical instead of horizontal
The Magic of Lemon Drop Pie by Rachel Linden - Love the font and the colour on this one. (my review)
I like all of your choices! My favorite is probably Dear Mrs. Bird. Those typewriter keys are eye-catching.
