Do! Judge A Book By Its Cover is a regular feature on Pop! Goes The Reader in which I pay tribute to some of the best and brightest the publishing world has to offer in the way of book cover design.
I know that illustrated covers aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, especially when it comes to adult romance novels, but I absolutely adore them! I love the vibrant colour palettes that look stunning on my rainbow bookshelves, and I’m always excited by the array of unique art styles employed by each illustrator as they help bring the story to life. In today’s post, the first new edition of Do! Judge A Book By Its Cover in over six months (!!!), I’ve curated a collection of 30 2022 adult contemporary romance covers that have stolen my heart and I can only hope that you’ll find beautiful, too.
Please Note: As always, I’ve done my best to credit the designers and artists responsible for the stunning covers below, but was unable to find this information for a number of those listed. If you know of an uncredited designer and/or artist responsible for any of these book covers, please let me know and I would be happy to include proper attribution in this post. Their work is lovely and deserves to be credited.
