…And a painting, with happy little clouds – happy mountaineer – happy mountains – and happy medals!

“A Murder Mystery a Ghost a Love Story.”

What the holy hell?

No, it’s “A Murder a Mystery a Ghost a Love Story.” The murder and the mystery are totally separate things. Apparently this is one of those non-mysterious murders.

Jesus, that’s almost worse.

And is it this designer’s superpower to use two fonts I absolutely hate?

What do some authors say about commas? I remember now…
“What are commas?”

Methinks it suffers from lack-of-commas-itis, myself. IF it were my text (which thankfully it is not), I’d write it as

A murder, a mystery, a ghost and a Love Story.

FWIW. (Eats, Shoots, and Leaves, kids. Punctuation counts.)

To anyone who pays

Y’know, some of my customers come to me, with these and other badges/awards, icons and it always tears me up a bit. I keep my jaws clamped shut, of course, but…it slays me to see them pay “submission fees” for these awards, it really does.

All awards are just a marketing ploy

This feels like one of those “spam the genres in hopes that one of them will have readers willing to try your book” attempts.

Look Ma! I bought a fake award for my dog-ass “book”!

Why is the subtitle so much bigger than the ACTUAL title? lol That’s my biggest complaint. The font isn’t the greatest, but, otherwise, I’d say it’s an OK (but boring) cover.
