Marketing materials for Not Another Superhero book

A 36x24 poster for book signings, talks, etc. Everyone needs a reason to buy an easel. It's life affirming. 
 
Reviews are great. Reviews that get read are better. So make them visually appealing. Then shove them in everyone's face. Works wonders. 
Not Another Superhero: Your cardio workout alternative. 
Author quotes should embody the visuals and mood you want readers to feel when you wrote the sentence. Unless you want readers to feel trapped in a white room with helvetica fonts, don't design your book quotes as such. Give them color and attitude. And, when necessary, splash fake blood around.

This is a relationship based quote from the book so the design reflects not only the softer feel of the scene, but the blindness and stupidity of Tiffany. Poor girl. Wonder if she can breathe under that thing. 
It was the jolly, slaphappy facial expression of this dog that perfectly embodied the reader's quote. He's having so much fun his frown can barely contain his joy. 
This design makes me thirsty, as well as motivated to buy this book if I hadn't been the one to write it. But I did. So I won't. 
It is all those things. Now anyone within 15 miles of my poster will know it, too. 
My Facebook author page. Similar designs were created for my blog, Twitter account, and any other social media channels so that the visuals remained consistent. 
Hold on. It's about to get bumpy. 
This is the social media post for July 4th weekend. Is it too understated? Will people not get it?
