I judge the hell out of a book based on the cover. It is the book's only chance to catch a reader's eye. I definitely appreciate when people step outside of the tropes that have come to the forefront in cover art.
Glad to see that Hank figured out how to remind us that his book "An Absolutely Remarkable Thing" is coming out September 25th, but is available for preorder right now!
I love how we have seen the transition of Hank being modest and quiet about his book to being so excited. His tweets this morning made me so excited to see the cover and it looks so good. The colors are different than what you would expect and yet work so well together. Can’t wait to read it!
UM I WANT THIS ON MY WALL. It is such a cool and bold design and I LOVE IT. I feel like sometimes you really can judge an actual book by its cover because I know from this cover that I will enjoy the book (also because I've loved every creative ~thing~ Hank has put out so there's that too.)
The cover of Watchmen is supposed to be the first panel of the comic, at the time a radical notion. And for a while, whenever they did a new edition of Watchmen, Dave Gibbons would do a new cover that rewound the beginning by one panel, creating a new cover.
Hank, hank. I'm sitting here in anticipation for this book cover. I'm sure it's a nice book cover and all, but oh my gosh, these 3-4 minutes are going to be SO LONG. Edit: HOLY HECK IT'S SO PRETTY. IT'S SUCH A "BRANDABLE" COVER. THE COLOUR SCHEME IS SO NICE. CONGRATS HANK! I'M VERY EXCITED TO NOT ONLY BUY THE BOOK, BUT PURCHASE SOME AWESOME MERCH.
A DARKER SHADE OF MAGIC! One of my favorite books. 😍 I agree that the cover for this book is gorgeous. It's genius, actually. It tells so much about the story and its world without spoiling it.
Hank's new book, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing, is available for pre-order and it's coming out September 25th. You can get it at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or on Hank's website, hankgreen.com.
I love love love how the blue and the figures are the background of the cover, but adding the eyes on the one gives it more of a foreground presence. It gives me a lot of questions, and it's wonderful
Usually I get annoyed at people plugging stuff, but when it comes to you I just feel like a proud mum. John really made you understand the why plugging is important and you did it in your own very cool way! P.S you’re my favourite, sorry John
I make book covers for amateur and beginner authors. It's fun, and challenging, and frustrating, and not very financially rewarding, but I think I do good work.
You know what I love about the whole fact that you wrote this book?? I watched all of your videos just I've a year ago for the 1st time. I read Johns books because I was familiar with them and they were the right genera for me to read. I bought Turtles and saw you guys on the tour. Then I heard that YOU had written a book! I realized that obviously you would write a very different book from John, and likely a book that I would normally walk right past in the book store because it is not what I would normally read. Yet some how, here I sit having already preordered and being externally excited to go out of my comfort zone and try something new!!! Your cover is somehow exactly what I would expect it to be and exciting and eye catching and wonderful! Thank y ou for helping me step out of a box I had trapped my self in!! I can't wait to read it and experience something new!
JennyM1998 when it first came out one of my friends was reading it, and the original cover had like a cartoon girl on it with a big head, I remember her telling us it was so good and none of us believed her. Then a few years later it exploded!
Science with Katie i totally agree with you! whoever designed it knew what they were doing... it feels a little bit dangerous and certainly has that fantasy feel.
CONGRATULATIONS!! I love the bold color choices and the mass of people making up the cover's background. I can't wait to hold the hardcover(!) in my hands and read it and put it on my desk next to Turtles All the Way Down...
I really like it, it does really stand out with the almost garish colour clashes and I love the slant of the writing and how the silhouettes overlap with the writing in places
Hank Green, I have been refreshing twitter for like 20 minutes, just waiting for your book cover reveal and then you upload a 4-minute video and I cannot, in good conscience, skip to the end just to see the cover GAH
I really liked the cover. Its SUPER BOLD and BLUE WITH YELLOW . SOUNDS AND LOOKS REALLY STRONG. Gonna be one of the best covers. well, let's wait for the book to come out. ALL THE BEST, HANK.
HANK! I am so dissapointed. You didn't talk about how An absolutely Remarkable Thing is available for preorder now and comes on September 25th. I've just been formed that I was mistaken. He did say it, but hey!! Here's the info again!
The first time I watched this video I was like oh god it's an ad. But this time it auto-played right after John's video "Hank, I Have Some Advice" and now it's heartfilled
i'm probably in the minority, but i miss the days of illustrated book covers and movie posters rather than photos collaged together or just text with some graphic design elements. these days, when every cover is just very loud text on a minimalist background, it's the illustrations that stand out most to me. i also like that AART's new cover kind of rides the line between illustration and graphic design in that sense.
toughtink yeah. I love the covers for the Throne of Glass and the Lotus War series, as well as the The Hate You Give. There's still some minimalism to it but the choice of just having the main character on the cover in way that tells you so much about her character is pretty cool to me.
Hank, good job plugging your book. You got the title, the release date, AND The fact that it's available for preorder! The Nerdfighters are all proud of you!
We are so exited for your book Hank ! And now this cover . It's so interesting . I love this colours and It's one of the things you really see when walking into a bookstore that's amazing
Hank's excitement for his book is the most precious thing. I love the way he talks about April like a friend he's introducing us too. I can't wait to see where this takes the vlog brothers!
Unlike basically everyone else, this looks to me like a very John green book cover and honestly this style of book cover annoys me. But I'm glad hank loves it.
That slanted green font and blue background people tells me that I will be dealing with something akin to aliens and the reaction of the masses in this book. Am I close?
"April is a graphic designer and very into color choice" ME TOOOOO. I could go on a whole rant about my general book cover opinions, but no one wants that. BUT I LOVE YOUR BOOK COVER, HANK. My favorite part is the font choice and the texture on the type. It looks kinda like it was put on there with a paint roller. Count me a fan of your designer.
Amazeballs!! SO excited! As a bookseller with 10 years under my belt I can tell you that a cover can definitely make or break a book. I’ve had so many customers just buy a book because they like the cover. They like to tell you all about it at check out. Myself, I’ve been scared by some of the covers because they were boring...but not yours! Though if it was a boring cover… us NerdFighters would read it anyway! We are here for substance!! Still the cover is amazeballs!
That cover is beautiful! The contrast between the blue checkered background and the green text, the tones and shades of the colors used, the stylized font - it's a pretty awesome cover, Hank. There are some high expectations for that story now. :D
I love the excitement that comes through in this video, especially at the end. It’s contagious and I’m excited for you in a way I’d be excited for a friend.
Oh Hank, I'm so excited about this book cover! More importantly, I can see how much YOU are excited about and love this book cover! Congratulations and I can't wait to have my own copy and read it for myself! DFTBA! ❤️
I have to say that I....don't like it..? maybe I'm not the target audience but the cover seems too masculine, too neon for my liking. I'm happy it doesn't have a headless figure on the front, but the bold slanted sans serf font is doing nothing for me.
Using an all over pattern on the entirety of the cover is a bold choice, I like it. And I like how the words break up the pattern and the pattern sometimes overlaps the letters. It’s a good cover.
I love the colour! Great shades of blue and green! And I realise I have similar tastes in book covers as you, Hank. Bright, sort of simple (but if you think about it or look closer there are hidden elements/clues). This, in turn, explains why I'm not a fan of many fantasy, sci-fi and crime covers, they're usually to full of detail and in muted colours.
I knew this was EXACTLY how the book cover was going to look!! For some reason, these are the colors I think of when I think of "Hank Green". A BRIGHT lime green that evokes science-y memories and a nice variation on cobalt blue. Perfect.
Ohhhh, I love that book cover. A lot of my book choices is literally just want I’ve been drawn to in the book store - and this is totally a book cover that I could gravitate towards.
YAAAAAS, the COVER! The cover of a book is really a fascinating invitation to readers and speaks so much outward. Like it's calling a certain audience forward. Also, the frame at 3:56 has me chortling so much. HUZZAH, HANK!
What a great video! Some of my favorite book covers are Redshirts, Ready Player One, The Glass Sentence, 1983 Bantam print of Dragonsong, and The 5th Wave.
I love the colour scheme of your book! Also I really your book cover list in this video. I’m a big fan of bright colours and minimalist-ish design elements so a lot of the book covers mentioned, appeal to me aesthetically
i especially love the cover because i loved it immediately when i saw it, but i could also tell that the cover will be more than just aesthetically pleasing after i read the novel. like i can tell the cover means something and i can't wait to read the book and figure out all those details
After watching the Willie video (and given of my family's dogs is in the same state) I really needed Hank being enthusiastic about life right now, and this was perfect. The book cover is great Hank! I look forward to reading it.
It looks Absolutely Remarkable! Stunning colours and you're right, the eyes are a really cool little detail. And I like that it's really different from John's covers and it looks new and familiar at the same time and the thing about the high energy, fun and deadly serious was also a success! Congratulations! I'm very excited to read it and John must be happy now because you mentioned all the three important things.
Aaaaa it looks so good! Honestly when you posted the picture of the cover with everything scribbled out except the edges I was like “okay I have a complete understanding of what the full cover is going to look like” and then I was WRONG and I LOVE IT.
Oh my GOD I love that you picked Watchmen as one of the best book covers because I’m LITERALLY packing that book for spring break as we speak so I can get a head start on classwork.
I am so picky about book covers and I am so glad that you made the choices you made, the cover looks absolutely stunning! My name is the Turkish for April and I am wholly obsessed with colour choices and graphic design, so I feel truly at home looking at the cover! Can't wait to get my hands on it, well done!
I really love the work of Chip Kidd when it comes to book covers. I feel like he truly changed the game! And his novels are a delight too. Congrats on the new cover. It looks quite fetching.
Wow! I love your cover so much and i can't wait to read the book!! Also it was super cool to see watchmen and night vale (two of my deep but slightly more obscure interests/loves) one after the other!
Hanks Book's cover reminds me of the spongebob screen cards, like the one that says "Four Years Later" you know what I mean?
I was just about to say the same thing darn it
Jennifer Goebel So Long that The Old Narrator Quit and They Had to Hire A New One
Whoa, you’re so right! Haha I’m never going to not be able to see it like that now.
i absolutely came down here to say the same
You beat me to this by 1 minute! :P
Would be happy for an extended video of more book cover likes/thoughts of yours on your other channel.

Yesssss! Also any thoughts on the orange/blue color scheme in movie posters and book covers. So fascinatingly prevalent!
I judge the hell out of a book based on the cover. It is the book's only chance to catch a reader's eye. I definitely appreciate when people step outside of the tropes that have come to the forefront in cover art.
That and the title
Glad to see that Hank figured out how to remind us that his book "An Absolutely Remarkable Thing" is coming out September 25th, but is available for preorder right now!
I know, he did so good!!
First thought upon seeing the cover: This is a very "Hank" cover. I don't even know what my mind means by that ^^ I really like it though :)
It's out there and juuuust a bit crazy
Exactly! I am so excited for the book😃😃😃😃
+
I love the slanty font on his book cover and how it contrasts with the figures in the background; it reminds me of Rene Magritte's Golconda.
So, this was an interesting video. More like this! 😃
The temptation to skip to the end to see Hank’s cover was so strong, but I resisted!
Dyimnasta As in many things, the journey and the destination are both extremely valuable.
I played the video in 1.5x speed hahahaha so i can get to it faster without skipping

I love how we have seen the transition of Hank being modest and quiet about his book to being so excited. His tweets this morning made me so excited to see the cover and it looks so good. The colors are different than what you would expect and yet work so well together. Can’t wait to read it!
That cover is an *absolutely remarkable thing*
Comes out September 25. Available for pre-order.
Yay you did the preorder thing, well done!
UM I WANT THIS ON MY WALL. It is such a cool and bold design and I LOVE IT. I feel like sometimes you really can judge an actual book by its cover because I know from this cover that I will enjoy the book (also because I've loved every creative ~thing~ Hank has put out so there's that too.)
YAAAAAY!!!
vlogbrothers Could you please make a poster version of the cover available for purchase?
vlogbrothers OMG thanks for the reply :D wonderful self-promo btw I'm proud *wipes tear*
YES POSTERS NOW
The cover of Watchmen is supposed to be the first panel of the comic, at the time a radical notion. And for a while, whenever they did a new edition of Watchmen, Dave Gibbons would do a new cover that rewound the beginning by one panel, creating a new cover.
Real frocking cool
YES And an absolutely remarkable thing is available now for PRE ORDER and it comes out september 25
It Devours!!! I preordered a signed copy of it and absolutely love it. I’m so happy you mentioned it, because it’s amazing
Hank, hank. I'm sitting here in anticipation for this book cover. I'm sure it's a nice book cover and all, but oh my gosh, these 3-4 minutes are going to be SO LONG.
Edit: HOLY HECK IT'S SO PRETTY. IT'S SUCH A "BRANDABLE" COVER. THE COLOUR SCHEME IS SO NICE. CONGRATS HANK! I'M VERY EXCITED TO NOT ONLY BUY THE BOOK, BUT PURCHASE SOME AWESOME MERCH.
Thanks for stickin' it out!!!
I love how accurately you described most of nerdfighteria's experience watching this video. DFTBA!

A DARKER SHADE OF MAGIC! One of my favorite books. 😍 I agree that the cover for this book is gorgeous. It's genius, actually. It tells so much about the story and its world without spoiling it.
That is An Absolutely Remarkable cover!! Can’t wait to read it when it comes out on September 25th.
It's available for pre-order now. ^^
untappedinkwell Preordered mine the day it was announced 😅
Of course you did. ^^ But heaven forbid nerdfighteria forgets the "available for pre-order now" tagline.
I love the cover for It Devours! It's very in-your-face, but still mysterious. Kinda like the book itself.
Omg the book cover is 'Absolutely Remarkable'! Loved it!
I also like how it describes the book as "A novel thing" which I feel is very Hank.
My toddler would like to tell you, “he needs to slow down! Otherwise he will need a rest.” Thats some speed talking.
Hank's new book, An Absolutely Remarkable Thing, is available for pre-order and it's coming out September 25th. You can get it at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or on Hank's website, hankgreen.com.
omg I love that the mysterious person dude thing pattern is reminiscent of a houndstooth print
It also looks a lot like vair, as in the "fur" in heraldry.
I love love love how the blue and the figures are the background of the cover, but adding the eyes on the one gives it more of a foreground presence. It gives me a lot of questions, and it's wonderful
I’ll Give You the Sun is just as excellent as its cover design.
riiight. definitely one of my favorites
Beautiful,,,perfect book
That's my favourite book. It's just tooooo awesome:D
Hank I'm a big fan of yours . Cannot wait for the book , cover is sooo catchy that it makes waiting harder.
I LOVE IT! It's so different! It's bold and striking and I honestly can't think of another cover that looks like it!
It reminds me a bit of The Rest of Us Just Live Here by Patrick Ness... which is also the only glow-in-the-dark book cover I've ever seen!
Usually I get annoyed at people plugging stuff, but when it comes to you I just feel like a proud mum. John really made you understand the why plugging is important and you did it in your own very cool way! P.S you’re my favourite, sorry John

I really wasn't expecting to see Twilight in this video - also surprised you own a copy! It's an awesome cover Hank! 💛💙
the english covers for the twilight saga are extremely cool in a really weird way
JennyM1998 when it first came out one of my friends was reading it, and the original cover had like a cartoon girl on it with a big head, I remember her telling us it was so good and none of us believed her. Then a few years later it exploded!
I completely forgot about that cover until you just mentioned it!
Science with Katie i totally agree with you! whoever designed it knew what they were doing... it feels a little bit dangerous and certainly has that fantasy feel.
CONGRATULATIONS!! I love the bold color choices and the mass of people making up the cover's background. I can't wait to hold the hardcover(!) in my hands and read it and put it on my desk next to Turtles All the Way Down...
I love the cover, Hank! Preordered already, but now I want to preorder another one!
SO EXCITING!!!
I really like the contrast between the vibrant green and subdued/bright blue.
LOOKS! SO! GOOD!
Thanks Tyler!
I really like it, it does really stand out with the almost garish colour clashes and I love the slant of the writing and how the silhouettes overlap with the writing in places
Hank Green, I have been refreshing twitter for like 20 minutes, just waiting for your book cover reveal

The Phantastic Shakthi He said it @ 0:33
Eppepalli Rohith oh sorry I'm an idiot
I adore the colors! I think will stand out so much once it makes those library displays.
I am too excited to read about The Absolutely Remarkable Thing Hank Green.

The first time I watched this video I was like oh god it's an ad. But this time it auto-played right after John's video "Hank, I Have Some Advice" and now it's heartfilled
Hey I hope everyone has a blessed day!!
I think it’s adorable how excited Hank is! He’s all, “lookatthisthingitismine!!!” and glowing, and I can’t help but smile. :)
i'm probably in the minority, but i miss the days of illustrated book covers and movie posters rather than photos collaged together or just text with some graphic design elements. these days, when every cover is just very loud text on a minimalist background, it's the illustrations that stand out most to me. i also like that AART's new cover kind of rides the line between illustration and graphic design in that sense.

I hope people judge me by my cover because they'll be disappointed with what's inside
The Suicidal Muffin such a fitting name
At least you're honest.
If you eat bacon then you'll have bacon inside and nobody can be disappointed with that.
+Sooth Moth That sounds like something John would say.
The Suicidal Muffin both for me 👻
We are so exited for your book Hank ! And now this cover . It's so interesting . I love this colours and It's one of the things you really see when walking into a bookstore that's amazing
John Darnielle's Wolf in a White Van cover (and book) is also great
The Sunset Tree So true. And I'm surprised he didn't mention Mr. Penumbra's 24 Hour Bookstore.
It IS but somehow Universal Harvester beats it (on both fronts)
Agreeeeeeed!
Hank's excitement for his book is the most precious thing. I love the way he talks about April like a friend he's introducing us too. I can't wait to see where this takes the vlog brothers!
Unlike basically everyone else, this looks to me like a very John green book cover and honestly this style of book cover annoys me. But I'm glad hank loves it.
Hank talking about book arts!!! My fav person and my fav topic!!! I am living!!!
I went to an excellent talk by Maureen Johnson about torso only YA book covers.
I'm not even capable of imagining how stunning Maureen Johnson's rant could have been.
MarkThePage it was great very thoughtful and very heartfelt whilst also quite funny and a bit crazy.
Is this online somewhere? The original hardcover of 13 little blue envelopes is, IMO, the greatest book cover injustice of all time.
Also curious if it's recorded somewhere! I'd love to see that!
Alanna R. I don’t think it’s anywhere online. I saw her speak on the topic a few years ago in London.
The eyes on the one Carl is instantly captivating. I'm preordering this.
I can imagine this will be well received in Sweden as well
darker shades of magiiiiiic!!!!
That slanted green font and blue background people tells me that I will be dealing with something akin to aliens and the reaction of the masses in this book. Am I close?
It's Hank Green. Could this be about anything else?
I /think/ it’s robots. Not positive, but I think that’s it. You’re close!
"April is a graphic designer and very into color choice" ME TOOOOO. I could go on a whole rant about my general book cover opinions, but no one wants that. BUT I LOVE YOUR BOOK COVER, HANK. My favorite part is the font choice and the texture on the type. It looks kinda like it was put on there with a paint roller. Count me a fan of your designer.
Right now in this moment no one has finished this video
Amazeballs!! SO excited! As a bookseller with 10 years under my belt I can tell you that a cover can definitely make or break a book. I’ve had so many customers just buy a book because they like the cover. They like to tell you all about it at check out. Myself, I’ve been scared by some of the covers because they were boring...but not yours! Though if it was a boring cover… us NerdFighters would read it anyway! We are here for substance!!

Remember, Hank.
Title, release date, you can pre-order now.
That cover is beautiful! The contrast between the blue checkered background and the green text, the tones and shades of the colors used, the stylized font - it's a pretty awesome cover, Hank. There are some high expectations for that story now. :D
WOOHOO! BOOK COVER!!
I love the excitement that comes through in this video, especially at the end. It’s contagious and I’m excited for you in a way I’d be excited for a friend.
Who else just skipped to the end to see Hank’s book and then watched the video!!! 😄😄😄
Also.... HAAAAANK YOUR BOOK LOOKS AMAAAZING!!!! 😱😱😱
Oh Hank, I'm so excited about this book cover! More importantly, I can see how much YOU are excited about and love this book cover! Congratulations and I can't wait to have my own copy and read it for myself! DFTBA! ❤️
I have to say that I....don't like it..? maybe I'm not the target audience but the cover seems too masculine, too neon for my liking. I'm happy it doesn't have a headless figure on the front, but the bold slanted sans serf font is doing nothing for me.
Extremely happy how the book cover went out! Easy on the eyes, and it looks cool. Can't wait to buy your book, Hank!
It gives me Scooby Doo vibes 😂
Ella Havia yes ! Omg yes
Ellis Saunders 😅😂
Using an all over pattern on the entirety of the cover is a bold choice, I like it. And I like how the words break up the pattern and the pattern sometimes overlaps the letters. It’s a good cover.
I'm very excited to see that purple majestic cover, a corner of which I saw on his twitter last night.
Looks more blue to me.
Urameshii exactly, its blue
I love the colour! Great shades of blue and green! And I realise I have similar tastes in book covers as you, Hank. Bright, sort of simple (but if you think about it or look closer there are hidden elements/clues). This, in turn, explains why I'm not a fan of many fantasy, sci-fi and crime covers, they're usually to full of detail and in muted colours.
First?
Logan Saborsky yep!
I love the color and image repetition on your book jacket, so good Hank!
I feel like Hank is the kind of person who, if he's excited and happy, makes everybody around him excited and happy :)
I knew this was EXACTLY how the book cover was going to look!! For some reason, these are the colors I think of when I think of "Hank Green". A BRIGHT lime green that evokes science-y memories and a nice variation on cobalt blue. Perfect.
Ohhhh, I love that book cover. A lot of my book choices is literally just want I’ve been drawn to in the book store - and this is totally a book cover that I could gravitate towards.
YAAAAAS, the COVER! The cover of a book is really a fascinating invitation to readers and speaks so much outward. Like it's calling a certain audience forward. Also, the frame at 3:56 has me chortling so much. HUZZAH, HANK!
I was SO happy to see A Darker Shade of Magic on this list. It's one of my all time favorite books and covers.
What a great video! Some of my favorite book covers are Redshirts, Ready Player One, The Glass Sentence, 1983 Bantam print of Dragonsong, and The 5th Wave.

Oeeeh as soon as I ajusted to it that cover looks absolutety stunning and gives off exactly what you mentioned. So Exited to read it!!
It looks Absolutely Remarkable! Stunning colours and you're right, the eyes are a really cool little detail. And I like that it's really different from John's covers and it looks new and familiar at the same time and the thing about the high energy, fun and deadly serious was also a success! Congratulations! I'm very excited to read it and John must be happy now because you mentioned all the three important things.
yay! LOVE THE COVER HANK! Also i have to agree, A Darker Shade of Magic and its cover complement each other perfectly.
Aaaaa it looks so good! Honestly when you posted the picture of the cover with everything scribbled out except the edges I was like “okay I have a complete understanding of what the full cover is going to look like” and then I was WRONG and I LOVE IT.
It looks fantastic! Very bold and eye-catching. I can't wait to read it!
Oh my GOD I love that you picked Watchmen as one of the best book covers because I’m LITERALLY packing that book for spring break as we speak so I can get a head start on classwork.
the font on your cover is epic! I also love Simon vs. cover! Wonderful video. So happy for you, Hank.
I so love this cover! From the little that I know about the book, it seems to really fit the tone! Congratulations, Hank, this is so exciting!
This looks amazing! I was already excited about this book, but now I am SO MUCH MORE EXCITED.
I am so picky about book covers and I am so glad that you made the choices you made, the cover looks absolutely stunning! My name is the Turkish for April and I am wholly obsessed with colour choices and graphic design, so I feel truly at home looking at the cover! Can't wait to get my hands on it, well done!
ADSOM! Heck yes! Favorite cover and one of my favorite books of the last 10 years.
The swarm also has a really nice cover design, it has such a nice, strong contrast. It's also one of my favourite books...
I really like this video with all the enthusiasm and the zoomed in face and YAY THE BOOK COVER I'M SO HAPPY FOR HANK
I really love the work of Chip Kidd when it comes to book covers. I feel like he truly changed the game! And his novels are a delight too.
Congrats on the new cover. It looks quite fetching.
Wow! I love your cover so much and i can't wait to read the book!! Also it was super cool to see watchmen and night vale (two of my deep but slightly more obscure interests/loves) one after the other!
