Mind Mapping Book Covers

So here are some of my preliminary mind maps for my brainstorming for the book covers! I have been breaking the titles apart word by word, to perhaps come up with some not-so-cliche ideas. Looking up the synonyms and definitions of these words has definitely led to some new thoughts that wouldn't have occurred to be otherwise.

I'll be image-hunting this weekend, visiting bookstores and the library to see what I can find. I still want to continue with the idea of using texture as unifying feature, using it as a background or something. I'll also be figuring out what I can take pictures of myself!
