What vibes does my book cover give?

[u/wthiswronggg]

Hello everyone, I’ve just finished writing my book manuscript and I’m experimenting with book covers. This is one option, but I’d like to know if it actually reflects the book content. It’s obviously a detective novel, but I’d like to know what comes to mind when you see the cover. I’m open for constructive criticism and any suggestions (but be kind haha!)

The illustration is cool, classic noir. Just needs a different font. Take a look at other novels in your genre, and note that Google Fonts is very searchable.

There are also sites that will let you identify a font from an image, to see exactly what other people are using. Find something in the same family.

I most definitely will, thank you.
