"Winger" - Andrew Smith

It is my understanding that on the hardcover copy of Andrew Smith's "Winger," the title is embossed and, therefore, stands out a little more, but in this case (and likely on the paperback edition), the color choice is not the best. The white letters stand out over the boy's face, but when it goes over the sky, which fades into white, it blends in and becomes difficult to read. The same can be said about the author's name, except in this case, it's more readable on the sky and a little less readable on the face. I like the cover photo and the placement of the text, so the only thing I would really want to change is the color of the text. "Winger" could use a different, darker color, like black, perhaps, and the author's name might be good with a gray or a purple or something that won't blend in as much with the face.
