Book covers with typography oriented in non-standard alignments, instead of the typical horizontal + left to right text alignment.

Third Culture Kids (TCK) π
TCKs are those who were "raised in a different culture than their parents, for a large part or the entirety of their childhood and adolescence. They typically are exposed to a greater volume and variety of cultural influences than those who grow up in one particular cultural setting."
These books must delve into the themes and conflicts of being a TCK and not just have a TCK. (this is different from an immigrant story, it's the generation that follows)

All in the Family π‘
Family stories! The tragic, the comedic, the heartwarming, the heartbreaking, and everything in between.
for the typography nerds
striking, interesting, or creative uses of type on book covers with minimal additional imagery/illustrations, if any.
