From the haunting illustration of Aykut Aydogdu for Wilder girls to the striking shot of Oliver Munday Nickel boys, the designs in this gallery feature some of the best book covers of July. Click on the images to browse our top picks celebrating the designers and illustrators we love.
If you’d like to see even more book covers, you can check out our galleries of the best book covers of 2019 (so far) and the best book covers of June 2019. We also recommend that you visit both Spine review‘s and The occasional optimist websites, because they introduced us to many of our favorite designs.
