I am probably not 100% neurotypical. There are places in my life where my atypical traits show more than others. One such place is book covers.
Specifically book covers for a series. Iain M. Banks wrote 9 “Culture” novels. I have 7 of them published by Orbit books, that all use the same color palette and same overall design. The last two, even though they are from Orbit, not only have a different aesthetic, they are a different size too. I know this is a small thing, but it bothers me.
Makes me wish there was a way to order books with a specific cover/jacket design.
On a similar note, I’m glad I bought “Wool” long before the Apple TV “Silo” television show. My cover is the original, and not one inspired by the show. I’m pleased with the show’s interpretation of the story, but I don’t need marketing/branding on the cover of the book.
