Mark,
So I was standing in front of the YA New Book section in my library yesterday and I suddenly noticed that a ton of the books had very dark, even black covers. Or at least black was the predominant color.
I know there are trends in cover art. I remember the pink covers of a few years ago, and I’m sure there have been times when blue has trended. But now it’s definitely black. Here are some examples:
- Mom














This has got to, at least in part, be due to the covers for the Twilight series and the first Hunger Games book, right?
Probably. I was thinking the whole paranormal and dystopic trends in general, but those are good specific examples.
