4. Re-design book cover

I totally have #ferrantefever and am so excited to read #4 of her Neapolitan Novels, but this series has some of the worst cover designs I've ever seen. Here are the Europa Editions covers (the ones available in the US) :

This writer suggests it's possible they're good designs if they're "deeply ironic" but a deeply ironic book cover design seems like bad design in principle.

Anyway here's my hastily rendered version of My Brilliant Friend, which I still think is better than the Europa Editions version and I only spent like 15 minutes on it.
