I started the Cover Doubles feature because I was browsing through some books and had to do a double take because I just knew the cover I was looking at was the exact same cover as a previous book I'd read before. With digital self-publishing, stock photos and pre-made book covers are often used multiple times. But, I saw similarities happening with traditionally published books also. And that's what started me checking out cover trends.
Here's my fourth edition of Cover Doubles:
Neon Signs (Updated from 3rd Edition)
Underwater (Updated from 3rd Edition)
Silhouettes (Updated From 3rd Edition)
Something's In My Hands
Filagree
Splashes of Color
Starry Calligraphy?
Neon Colors
I've been noticing some of these trends as well but had never realized how truly similar looking some covers are.
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean! I get so many deja vu moments when i'm browsing books in the library or bookstores! So many covers look alike! :)
