Book Cover Redesign: 'Don't Tell Anyone'

This month, Michele Argyle at Melissa Williams Design reimagines the cover of Don’t Tell Anyone by Laurie Boris, who said the new cover “works on so many levels.”

Design Note #1: Adding two subtitles gives readers a clearer sense of what they can expect from this family secrets mystery.

Design Note #2:The minimalist color scheme sets an inviting, warm tone that will appeal to many readers.

Design Note #3: The new cover still indicates that food is a large part of the story, but the illustrated image more clearly nudges the book into the women’s fiction genre.

Design Note #4:The title interacting with the artwork shows that though this is a mystery, it’s a fun and playful read.
