THE WILD COVER AWARDS 2026

🐺 THE WILD COVER AWARDS 2026 🐺

Your book has a story.
But does its COVER have a story of its own?
You've probably stared at your cover approximately 472 times. 😭

Now it's time to put that cover in the spotlight.

Welcome to THE WILD COVER AWARDS 2026 - a book cover competition where we're NOT simply looking for the prettiest cover.

We're looking for the covers that make us STOP. STARE. WONDER. LAUGH. PANIC. BLUSH. DREAM.
The cover that looks like a doorway to another universe. 🚪
The one that makes you think "I should probably run." 🏃
The one that makes you invent an entire plot before reading the blurb. 🔥
The one that looks like it belongs on a movie screen. 🎞️
The one that is so beautiful you forget what you were doing. 🎀

And yes...

...the one that makes us seriously question what was going on inside the author's head when they made it. 🫣

From Cutest Cover to Most Badass Cover,
from Most Peaceful to Most Haunting,
from Most Artistically Creative to Most Sensual-Looking...
There is a category for every kind of cover.

🐺 SO... WHAT KIND OF WILD IS YOUR COVER?

Whether your cover is beautiful, bizarre, cinematic, heartbreaking, hilarious, mysterious, chaotic, seductive, terrifying-or something we don't even have a word for yet...

WE WANT TO SEE IT.

Bring us the cover that makes people click.
Bring us the cover that makes people stare.
Bring us the cover that makes people ask questions.
Because sometimes...

YOU REALLY CAN'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER.

But you CAN award it for one. 👀
