Cover Crazy was created by The Bookworms but is now hosted here at Turning the Pages. It's a great way to share a book cover that took your breath away!
To me, there is NOTHING better than a cover of a book. One of my favourite places, in the world, is a book store. I can walk around them for hours just looking at covers of books. I am well aware of the saying "You can't judge a book by its cover", I just don't believe it!
When I find a book cover that I love, I will always read the back and then make my purchasing decision, but... WOW... there is just something amazing about a gorgeous cover! So, moving forward, I am going to share those covers that just made me want to escape and read a book instantly!
Without further adieu, here is the cover I am crazy about this week:
What I love about this cover:
First and foremost... what I love is the colour. That range of blues and blacks are simply amazing and I just find them to be calming and so attractive that I can't help but want to pick it up and stare at it!
As you can tell by the appearance of Turning the Pages, I have a slight affinity to the stars and space images so Gravity has not only hit the colour mark but the image mark as well. Without reading what this book is about, I would assume a dystopian/apocalyptic story or maybe something about life on other planets. Either way, I love it!!
Finally, I really enjoy the simplicity of the fonts and the title placement. With such a stunning picture, I am very glad to see that it wasn't overtaken by craziness that you tend to see on some covers.
