Best of Book Cover Designs of 2007

Ray Drainville

Book cover design is close to my heart—if you’re an avid reader, it’s nice to have a really attractive cover to the book you’re reading. Joseph Sullivan of Book Design Review publishes his favourite book cover designs of 2007.

From his list, my favourites are “Small Crimes in an Age of Abundance” (above, designed by David Drummond), “Six Degrees” (designer unknown), “One Perfect Day” (designed by Evan Gaffney), & “Brave New World” (designed by Greg Kulick). Of course I’m also very fond of “Simple Sentences”, but since I designed it I might be biased!
