Best book covers of 2007

The Book Design Review Blog has picked its top book covers for 2007 -- there are some superb covers here -- I'm especially fond of these two, for Unmarketable: Brandalism, Copyfighting, Mocketing, and the Erosion of Integrity, and The Worst Years of Your Life. Got favorites of your own? Link 'em in the comments. Link (via Kottke)

  Enhancing Evolution by John Harris has a good one, as does The Varieties of Scientific Experience by Carl Sagan (although this second one is better in real life then in a picture, as the stars are shiny!).

• [Kevin Stockwell]

  Maybe I’m biased because my brother Ted has a story in it, but the Indie Spinner Rack anthology, Awesome by Jon Adams is one of my favorites.

• [Wiskey Devil]

  I love the different layers and vibrancy of colors on Fallen Nation. What a cute monkey!

  I was particularly happy with the book cover from my memoir, Tales of the Midwest (released earlier this year and freely downloadable as a PDF eBook at that link). That page also describes the process used in designing the cover. My favorite cover design aspect is the back cover listing of “advance criticism” snippets for which a dozen or so other bloggers offered insults — so much better than the usual “advance praise” found on so many books today.

  Things I’ve Failed At:
  autobiographical mumbles of a weirdo
  by Chusten King.

  I bought this book solely based on the cover from the author selling who was selling it on the street in Venice.

  The people have spoken: AEM is the book cover of today. What a lady!
