Book Cover: The Sex Talk You Never Had

Synopsis:

This book is the sex talk many women never had. In it, the author answers sexual questions from a scriptural standpoint. By reframing sex for the single girl (or the married woman who needs to rebuild her view of sexuality) the author will lay the foundation for God-honoring marriages and end the stigma on female sexuality.

Design:

This is one of my favorite book covers I've ever design—possibly because of the fact that it's so hard to create a bawdy cover for a conservative audience. Enter pixilated banana!

I thought about going the eggplant route, greek modesty paintings, or classic sex ed, but honestly nothing felt as right as the censored banana, so it stayed and has done very well. "It's gorillas! Nobody knows what it means, but it's provocative!" Well, everyone actually knows what it means.
