A really good book that I read this year was Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami. The cover is of a Japanese girl in black and white. It fits perfectly with the book because the book can get pretty dark at times. There is something about using a picture in a cover that looks professional. The girl is seen near a window almost trapped which matches the theme of the story. Overall, very pretty.
Here's another cover for the same book. Like the previous cover, it is a picture but while the other cover is in black and white, this one is in color. The first was a single person while this cover shows two. This book is kind of a love story so while the other cover portrays a sense of loneliness, this cover portrays love. I think this cover is better because the color pops. It draws more attention to the book and makes someone want to read it more. Not to mention this cover advertises the movie version that is coming soon.
