There should be a combination of vibrant and subtle colors that will enhance the beauty of the cover page. Using the same color or all bright and sharp colors on the cover page is not a good idea.

Every author wants to design a cover that can make a huge impact on the reader. He tries to cast the best impression on the reader with the help of the content he exhibits via the cover.
