The relative proportions make me think that this is actually a romance novel from the Harry Potter universe. It’s the story of how a half-giant and full blooded giantess found love while squashing a small Kansas town.

So they had mail order brides in the cowboy 🤠times?
Mail order brides were a late 19th Century (1800s) phenomenon but more of a thing with frontier homesteaders wanting a wife on the family farm/ranch. I don’t think it was a cowboy thing; cowboy flings were more of love’em’n’leave’em or one night stand with a dance hall gal things. There’s tons of authentic dime novel and B movie documentation on this.

I’d love for one of these things to feature a woman with all the accoutrements of 21st century model moving out west only to find that her “buyer” is a struggling farmer who lives in a sod-house in Nebraska with the nearest town 50 miles away.

Take out the woman and it would be a decent cover, even a good choice of fonts and good typography.
But, having a giant woman behind those buildings just ruins it for me.
