The Best Book Covers of 2025: The Semifinals

We’re getting down to the wire, and each book cover refuses to go down without a fight! Palaver and Lightbreakers nearly tied, but the Instagram votes for Lightbreakers ended up pulling through with just two more votes, giving it the win! And while My Documents was popular on Instagram stories, the web voters really showed their devotion for Foreclosure Gothic, putting it over its competitor by nearly fifty. Devoted, too, are the fans of Moderation—ever since its close call with Hellions in the first round, Moderation has been dominating its competitors by a very safe margin. Meanwhile, We Computers also took its win easily, safely beating out An Oral History of Atlantis on both web votes and Instagram stories.

Check out the bracket below to see how how the matches have shaken out so far:
