What is the font for RESTART and FAKER???

Hi, Liam,

I have your question, but I'm afraid I don't have the answer. I haven't the slighest idea what font is used. You might write to the publisher of both books , Scholastic, and ask them.                                               -----Gordon Korman-----

Thank you! By the way I just finished RESTART about 2 minutes ago. BEST. BOOK. EVER.

Glad you enjoyed it, Liam.                                                                              --GK--

Lots of other books of that era share that font as well; Mixed Up, Linked, War Stories, The Fort...

Good eye, @Korman Junkie. Several recent Scholastic releases have used that handwritten block font plus a different specific font for “Gordon Korman” on the cover. I’ve wondered if it’s a graphic designer doing the lettering freehand because the text doesn’t register with font identifying apps. (I remember trying during one of the Kormaniacs Book Club discussions a year or two ago.)

All the fonts are similar, at least. And free-hand makes sense, since some titles share letters but they are slightly different.
