I do enjoy the illustrated covers, especially All Things Bright and Strange. I like these covers because artists can show us more details that hint about the books and get me intrigued. And there are only so many covers I can take with women in dresses.

I’m starting to see the illustrated covers more and more. I think it’s a nice change of pace for romances. Very adorable. And trust me, when you have to go traipsing through stock photos for a couple to use on the cover, this alternative grows even more appealing. Lol

I like some of the covers but others don’t give any idea of the story, which I find a very helpful aspect of a book cover. I do like the Karen Barnett ones.

I’ve certainly noticed the shift. I am a fan to a certain degree – I find a lot of them to be quite similar looking. The vintage national parks style and the What Blooms from Dust stuck out to me, though! I like those both a lot ?
