Original Book Cover For
Visual Composition:

A dim, atmospheric depiction of a public high school bathroom. The mirror on the left dominates the view, capturing the details of the dingy and somewhat eerie setting. On the right side, a girl with shoulder-length, layered, curled pink hair stands with her back toward us, gripping her black backpack. Her hair allows a peek of black over-ear headphones. The words "Between Truth and Lies" are sprawled across the mirror in bold, red spray paint. The surroundings suggest an air of mystery, with muted shadows heightening the sense of angst and curiosity.

Design Typography:

Use a grungy yet legible font that imitates spray paint for the title. The author's name, "taidyn kiggins," will use a simple sans-serif font to ensure clarity amidst the visual chaos.

Design Layout:

The girl is aligned slightly off-center to the right. The title "Between Truth and Lies" is sprayed prominently across the mirror, drawing immediate attention. The author's name is placed at the bottom of the cover, slightly towards the left, maintaining balance.

Rationale Behind the Design:

The visual composition seeks to encapsulate the tension and mysterious ambiance of the story setting through its dim lighting and eerie tones, placing the girl in a moment between reality and reflection. A close-up view focuses on the back of the character and her unique pink hair, prompting curiosity about her identity and story. The mirror's message recruits reader intrigue, forming an interplay between truth and deception. Typography selection emphasizes the rebellious and youthful essence of the narrative, helping the title stand out like graffiti, luring in a young adult audience. The matte finish reinforces the dark thematic elements, providing tactile intrigue that mirrors the book's layered narrative.
