Neverland
Again, not a book cover but I absolutely adore this poster. Unfortunately the part I adore isn't the part I should write about for this class, so I'll leave it at the fact that it's absolutely amazing artwork done subtly enough I didn't realize how amazing it was at a glance. The typography is unfortunately something I'm not as fond of. While I'm fairly certain the font at the bottom on the square is the same as the one on the top the logo in the middle still makes it seem as if there are four fonts; this is something I'd usually understand and support the designer with, but in this case I don't understand the reasoning behind the font choice in another. You have a beautiful thin font to connect the important words, a fable looking font that isn't overly decorative but still looks like it belongs for the word story, and yet for some reason the word another just looks almost scy-fy or even documentary to me. I would have liked it so much more if either another was done in that same thin font with a stroke and maybe possibly italicized for emphasis or even just done in the same font as story. Either would have been much better than the choice that was made. The other problem I have is I feel like the font is too compact, and it leaves a lot of white space that just seems unnecessary around it. I could understand a want for some white space but the need for 3/4 of the space to be empty just seems like overkill to me. The one thing I really can appreciate is the color scheme and, assuming they're not part of the logo, the use of lines to separate the logo from the rest of the information.
