I really like the simplicity of it, and the fact there are no web 2.0 reflections :P

It’s amazing what you can do with three colors.

Definitely a great choice of colours. This will definitely stand out from the other books when it hits the shelves.

I like the colors too.

My favorite part though is definitely how Tara’s name is so integrated. I don’t know if I’ve ever seen that in a book cover before; she herself is a conceptual part of the layout.

Yeah I really like that. It makes sense because she’s the one who’s said what goes into the book so the speech bubble is very appropriate and cute too. I’m curious as to what this “whuffie factor” means now…
