  Odd Romance Book Titles--veinglory
Cover snark is to easy, let's try title snark?


If you don't think those titles are odd enough, try these.
 
Comments:
Anyone got an even weirder title?
 
LMFAO! Thanks...I needed the chuckle tonight, and your comments were priceless!

I have to laugh here Em because that first title is one of DEP's.

I was begged literally..by my editor in charge, but the books editor, and by the company consultant to change the title...even by the webmistress and I said no.

I dont know why...but I LOVE THAT TITLE lol...and so far...it is selling very very well.

Too funny! Thanks for the smile today, Emily. :)
 
Why is "The Lesbian S&M Safety Manual" considered weird? It's very straightforward.

I'm reading (yes, voluntarily) A Baby by Chance. Chance, I regret to say, is the hero.
 
I can't be the only one going "I have to have the stray shopping cart book!", can I?

It looks awesomesauce.
 
At what point in time did it become not only acceptable, but humourous to trash other authors' efforts? I mean you're complaining about something as asinine as a missing apostrophe in a title that is properly written either way you look at it. Clearly you've all mastered the art of a perfect mansucript and will soon be establishing your own publishing house of perfect books... Good luck to you all, and I hope others exhibit more kindness to you than you do to others....
 
I'm not allowed to think those titles are odd? My apologies. I have clearly misunderstood something fundamental about the publishing process.
 
It is called the Freedom of Speech...and the freedom to think whatever you want, whether other people like it or not.

And honey...if I can laugh at it as one of those book titles is at my publishing company...then so should you be able to.

A certain publisher recently had a spate of those "Millionaire's Baby" "Future King's Mistress" "Secret Lover's Secret" kind of stories. I just can't even force myself to read them.
