Book cover "The Shack"



I think that the design is successful in capturing the book's main idea because it has a sense of mysteriousness but at the same time of comfort. The book was about a man named Mack who held a really dark memory of the hidden shack in the woods because it held the memory of his daughter who was murdered while the whole family was camping. This cover seems very scary, mysterious, and the same time the snow gives the reader the chills. However, when Mack comes back to the cabin after many years, he meets God in his dreams which transforms the cabin into a beautiful house with a green garden and in the cover you can see that light is shining through in the right side and also a plant growing out. Therefore the book cover shows that there are two sides of the story; the beginning is dark and in the end everything gets better
