Welcome to The Friday Face-Off, a weekly meme at Books by Proxy.
Join us every Friday as we pit cover against cover, and publisher
against publisher, to find the best artwork in our literary universe.
You can find a list of upcoming topics at Lynn's Books.
This week's topic is:
Cartoonish/Graphic
Cartoonish/Graphic
This week ended up being a bit trickier than I expected! I decided to collect a variety of covers from different books that I thought looked like they could immediately start moving and become a cartoon. I'm not sure which would actually be considered "cartoonish/graphic," but this is just how I am interpreting it, I guess. :) There's a bit of a mix of middle grade, YA, and adult, so that was fun to find. Let's take a look at some of them!

I actually really like a lot of these, especially since they are so colorful! These three just tend to jump out at me the most and I am particularly fond of them, so I suppose I'll pick these three as my favorites. :)
What cover(s) do you like the most!?
I have that edition of To The Bright Edge of the World - it's really cool!
ReplyDeleteThese all look great together! I adore the cover of Gods of Jade and Shadow, but my favorite is The Land of Stories, probably because I'm a big Chris Colfer fan😁
