In The Wake
Forget the picture -- yes, this book is about a family that drowns -- and look at that letter spacing. And now tell yourself that you'll *never* do anything like that.
Sorry, can't forget the picture. It makes no sense. You have a funnel coming down from the surface of the water and you have a hand breaking the surface of the water below it? Um. Duh?
The letterspacing I don't mind THAT much, really. I don't like the title font, however. Dull.

The picture is fantastic, the font not so much.

Did the family drown in the toilet? I like the picture-it would catch my eye.
