Lyn Cote Asks What’s Your Favorite Title?

What’s the title of your favorite book? One of my favorites is At Home in Mitford, Jan Karon’s first in Mitford series. A few of her other titles are Somewhere Safe with Someone Good and Come Rain or Come Shine.

The last one is of course an old song title. I wrestle with titles myself.  (Translation–I am dreadful with coming up with titles,) But I have to do it. I’m bringing out a new historical series this fall–the stories of 4 generations of women in one family from 1917-1990. I have decided to use song titles for the book titles, one for each era: “Meant for Me” 1920’s, “Had to Be You” 1930-40’s, “To Love Somebody” 1960’s and “What Love Is” 1990. I hope the titles make the books attractive to readers.

I have been known to buy a book based merely on the title for example: Miss Frost Solves a Cold Case, and How to Murder a Millionaire. If you have strong feelings about titles and want to share you fave or the one you couldn’t stand, this is your chance to tell us about it–Lyn Cote
