Am I horribly awkward in these videos? What are some of your favorite book cover trends? What are some of your favorite book covers? I would love to hear your thoughts!
I don't think you're that awkward on video. The close up faces on the cover actually turn me off, even if it's only half a face. I don't like it when a person takes up a large percentage of the cover, especially if it's only part of their body. I think with Cinder, it may also have been playing off Twilight's cover. I believe that A Time to Die's style may be similar to some adult fantasy, which tends to focus on the scenery and show that there's a big world to explore. (I'm thinking of The Way of Kings' cover.) This is interesting because I just designed a cover for my camp NaNo novel.
It's the weirdest thing to speak to a camera instead of a person. :) For me, it depends on the cover. Sometimes partial faces are annoying, but sometimes they look good. I think it depends on how well it blends with the rest of the cover.
I think it's similar, but also very different. I just really love the cover. :)
