My favorite book cover for May comes from A Nest of Vipers by Harini Nagendra. Molly Von Borstel created the cover. She is the Art Director for Faceout Studios in Oregon. This book cover has several elements that I adore. There is a sari and an interior gateway painted in an orange red color. It is heavily decorated with narrative reliefs of deities and plants. The placement of two snakes on the sides is appropriate for the storyline as well as the title.
Von Borstel graduated with a BFA in graphic gesign and joined Faceout in 2019. She loves the visual storytelling aspect of her job and has won several awards. Last year she was recognized in Print Magazine's Top 50 Covers and received the Best in Show Award from Publishing Professionals Network Book Show.
