Top Ten Tuesday: Handwriting on Covers

Posted June 9, 2026 by Nicky in General / 2 Comments

This week’s prompt from Top Ten Tuesday is another cover-based one, about covers featuring handwriting/fonts that look like handwriting. I don’t actually know what I’ll find, but let’s see!

Aaand the end results are a bit of a mix: mostly I kept finding the same sort of “handwriting-ish” fonts being used, the “I’m based ultimately on handwriting/calligraphy, but everyone’s used to this as a font” ones. But here are some that caught my eye, narrowed down from about twenty…

Cover of A Long & Short Love Story by Kei Ichikawa Cover of A Long and Speaking Silence by Nghi Vo Cover of Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation manhua vol 12 Cover of Heaven Official's Blessing manhua vol 1 by STARember Cover of The Book Eaters by Sunyi Dean

 Cover of Glass Town by Isabel Greenberg Cover of The Murder of Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie Cover of Nick & Charlie by Alice Oseman Cover of A Nobleman's Guide to Seducing a Scoundrel by KJ Charles   Cover of The Annual Migration of Clouds by Premee Mohamed

I didn’t love all these books (and I haven’t finished The Book Eaters yet), but I confess that handwriting fonts do seem to grab my attention, and I definitely like them a lot when I’m making graphics (on the rare occasions that I do). Amsterdam Three, how I love thee.
