Book Cover Designs

I like this cover because of how much this cover fits the title. The smoke from the match goes with the word "pale," and the match represents the fire. Also the smoke gives the book a mysterious feeling that draws out my interest and desire to read the book.

This cover is definitely spooky. The two mirrors look like a pair of eyes when they are put side by side like this. Also it makes me thought of ghost stories that are related to mirrors. Scary. (I am already having goosebumps.)

This cover is really colorful. The colorful words stand out against the white outline of a female in pain on a black background. The bright colors match the idea of "splashes of colour." The only thing I don't like about the design is the bar of color on the top of the cover. Those color looks out of place. 

At first glance, I thought this was a box full of little earrings. Then I realize that it is a book cover. When I look closely at the little objects, they do seem to give off a feeling that they are transparent, but they are really not. The cover brings out my curiosity to find out how the little objects relate to the story. 

A fork that looks like a hand or a claw. Creepy, but at the same time interesting. This makes me wonder what kind of book this is. After reading the title, I can see that the fork relates to the table and bent part of the fork relate to the wolf. However, I am uncertain about the color of the fork. The red either represents blood or something else.

Overall:

The common characteristic of my five chosen book cover is that all the cover designs relate back to the title of each book in some ways. Also most of the designs seem to be a photograph or realistic enough to think of as a photograph.
