Replacing weapons on book covers with food. That’s it. That’s the post.

Jessica @ The Awkward Book Blogger

I’m a huge fantasy fan, and one thing I’ve noticed is that a lot of fantasy books have weapons on their covers. While I was making a few graphics for class, I decided to have a little fun and photoshop some book covers.

I present to you one of the silliest things I’ve done on this blog: editing characters holding weapons to make them look like they’re holding food instead.

A Gathering of Corn Dogs

A Gathering of Shadows corndogs
A Gathering of Shadows: A Novel (Shades of Magic, 2): Victoria Schwab: 9780765376473: Amazon.com: Books

Unravel the Ice Cream

Unravel the Dusk ice cream cone

The Marshmallow’s Crime

The Winner's Crime marshmallow

Queen of Kebabs

Queen of Shadows kebab

A Lollipop at the Gates

A Reaper at the Gates lollipops

I was aiming on doing 10 different covers, but trying to hide the weapons and blend in the food to make them look less out of place took a lot longer than I thought. I only managed to edit five covers before I called quits. Regardless, I hope you enjoyed this silly post. I want to do more of these in the future, so if you have any ideas you want to see me edit into book covers, please let me know!

Stay awkward and amazing!

    This was so much fun! I laughed so hard at the marshmallow. Also, the Reaper at the Gates cover is giving me Oompa Loompa vibes for some unknown reason. 🙂

    Oh my gosh – this post is pure genius!! 😂😂😂 I don’t know how you came up with this, but it deserves a medal! The Queen of Kebabs one especially has me in hysterics. It’s actually kind of fitting, considering that Celeana’s kill count wasn’t really that high, considering she was an assassin…
    But yeah, if you ever want to do a part two and make it to ten covers after all, I would not be opposed! 😉
