the cover that catches my attention the most is the last one because of how it stands out, its clear and bold, and the uniqueness of the serif helps make it pop out more. and as for the typography that doesn’t follow the horizontal path, I think the design choices look nice but make the title hard to read.

    The last one definitely is noticeable and certainly deploys negative tracking. Your comment about readability is well-taken. The designers note that the typeface, Monotype Modern Extended (extended!!!) is meant “to be seen rather than read.”
