Title Feedback

I'm not sure if this will work, but maybe? :D One person posts a title of theirs, then the next person says what they think it's about, or something about it. Basically what they think of it, weather or not if it was on a shelf they would pick it up. Then they say their title. For example: a: Title feeback... Hm... Too the point, not wordy, but also boring and not very catchy. It sounds like exactly what it is. Bubble Tea b: It sounds like literature for young teen girls. If I had to guess at the plot, a girl goes to a strange bubble tea café, meets the boy of her dreams, then has a rocky experiance that ends happily. With puppies and rainbows. Songs of Oritsu

Either horror or melodramatic chick lit. I'd be interested.

It sounds like some sort of Sci-Fi, strange enough to catch my attention. It seems a bit bland, but I would pick it up :-)

A crime novel. Or a drama of some description.

Definetly an action book, almost Jakie-Chan-like. I wouldn't read it, I'm not a fan of those.

Seems like it would be a war novel, or perhaps horror, but it definitely evokes action-type thriller images. I quite like it!

For some reason it makes me think either fantasy, or something Egyptian. Either way, I would pick it up and see what it's about, if it's fantasy, I probably wouldn't read it. Egyptian on the other hand... =D

Sounds like a dramatic action book, but unless it's a autobiography of Satan, I wouldn't read it because it sounds sacriligous.

Sounds like a horror or something about ghosts. Could even be a tragedy thing. I've read too many of those books though, so I might not pick it up. I guess it would depend on the summary or the cover art.

A romance, Romeo and Juliet-like. Something dramatic.

I might buy it, that is if a blurb was interesting. The tittle would urge me to at least look at it, though.

Coded.

I realized that I said I'd be gone for only two weeks...but I was gone for much longer.I hope to stay on this time.

I once tried to write a novel and its working title was Highest Degree, because of this quote I found on the web:

"The degree of ignorance and predjuice against deaf culture is unusually high."

I have a couple of suggestions:

Underline your most powerful phrases and try them out as titles

Try to find the main theme in the novel and pick something related to that (like I did, a quote)

Use the main character's name (although that can get old)

And we'll be a dream...

Deafwriter, you're supposed to rate the title above you and post one of your own for the next person to rate.

"Scavenger" def sounds like a thriller. I like one-word titles!

"At the End of the Rainbow" seems fairytale-like and sentimental. Or is that the point?

My title for my upcoming short story:

Sounds a bit like a sci-fi set on earth where Anybody smart is made to create giant weapons that are used to fight other planets.
