I totally agree with the above that the bottom 2 are similar to others I’ve seen while the top 2 really match your vibe and aesthetic 😍 personally adore #2!
#2 looks like a NYT best seller I would see in an airport bookstore and pick up. The numbers on the post-it make me curious and want to find the answer. Also your name stands out and visually pops since it’s distinguished by color. The champagne and “handwriting” make me feel like I’m peeking into your life and your desk. This is a cover that would appeal to a range of readers. I get a mature (in the best way possible) vibe from this. Like “I’ve grown from this. pay attention.”
The first option is visually more creative and edgy, but doesn’t distinguish your name with visual emphasis. I like it as art, but it makes me get a feeling of a hangover or many rough nights (bathroom tile, glasses partially full or empty depending on your take). Perhaps that’s the vibe, though? As in you’ve been through a lot, but here you are still standing. If that's the aim, then this makes good sense.
#3 is the best non-image option. The contrast of font against background is great and the crossed off part of the usual saying is playful and intriguing.
As a Learning Designer, I would avoid #4 or rework it if used. There are accessibility issues for readability and colorblindness. Low contrast between the title and background could be an issue as could the red/pink tendency to blur.
The vintage glasses with the pink drink 💗 so on brand. Playful and aesthetic. Love it!
The post it gives me Berger vibes 😉
And 3 and 4 or nice, but kind of seen that before.
So excited for you! 😘😘
Ha I thought Berger too! Thanks for the feedback babe!

Happy Choosing, Cara!

One! 💖
Options 1 and 3 look fantastic!
1 or 4. Can't wait to read it, Cara.
I can't wait to share it!! <3 thanks for the vote!
I like them all, but cover #1 is the favorite. 💫
🥂💓
Oooooo. 1 or 2
I like that I can see your name so clear in #2.
I’m loving one so you the cover the drinks it’s very Cara🥂💖
2 I like but I feel like the drink cuts off🫠😅
3/4 are too basic🫠
😍
I’m between 1 and 2! I think adding those textures is so you! 😍✨
Thank you! 💖💖
I love cover #1. The title jumps out to be with the background of cute glasses.
Thank you! I love that one too!
Option 1 for me
It would stand out in Barnes and noble for me
Thank you! 💕
#1 is my favourite - is fun and very cool!!! I agree that I have seen #3 and #4 before! So excited to ready the book...
Thank you! I was partial to #4 but my gut told me to go with an image so I agree that #1 is really fun...
Plus i think it catches the eye... I would stop to read the back of the book with that cover :D
#1 for me 😍😍😍
<333
I love 1 & 2!! I agree with the above comment, 3 & 4 are more basic and the other two fit the aesthetic much better!
But in reality I think I’m obsessed with cover choice #1!!! ❤️❤️ cheers to you and your forthcoming book! How exciting! 🥂 congratulations 🍾🎈
Thanks love! I am starting to love #1 too now!
Can you add a lipstick kiss on the cocktail napkin for #2? And the wadded up the spanks poking out of a purse somewhere hidden on that cover 😆
hahaha the spanx deserve a moment!
