You ever notice how many covers look alike? Or maybe you can’t remember the book you read but you remember the basic details of the cover. We’re showcasing cover lookalikes every other week with a different trend each time. Today’s cover collection is titled “Empty Chairs” and is perfect for those who can’t remember the book, but the cover had an empty beach chair (or chairs) on it.
