Help judge my next book by its cover

While my next book, Superusers, comes out in early 2019, the publisher is already starting to send me cover designs to review.

The first batch of cover designs arrived this morning - these are book covers (with one exception) with no images, just words.

Let me know which - if any - of the following 5 designs appeal to you by writing your favorite book cover # in the comments. Feel free to rank them (from most to least favorite) or select more than one.

I'll be posting a few more cover designs (these will have words and images) in the coming weeks, and will announce the winning cover design once all of the cover designs have been posted.

Be sure to leave your email and name, and I'll select one lucky winner to receive a free copy of the book when it comes out. Thanks for your input here!
