Project Overview

This project is a book cover redesign of the thriller novel "The Lying Game". A captivating story written by the author, Ruth Ware. Filled with suspense, mystery, and intricate twists, the story follows a group of friends who reunite years later to confront the dark secrets of their shared past.

Redesign a book-cover using rhetorical tropes relating to the novel

The objective was to create a mesmerizing book cover that features dynamic visuals, carefully crafted to captivate and engage the reader's eye.

The Process

The elaborate snakes symbolize the intricate web of lies and deceit woven by the characters. The entwining of the snakes around the text forms a captivating composition, further emphasizing the allure and complexity of the narrative.

The visuals were obtained from heritagetype.com and underwent manipulation using Photoshop, where they were carefully masked and edited. Following that, InDesign was used to arrange the pages and craft the design for the back cover of the book.
