    GUYS I AM AWARE THAT ALL OF THESE TITLES MAKE SENSE WHEN YOU READ THEM and or when you think about them metaphorically. I did this for comedy, in the mindset of a human who casually picks up these books.
    Any title can sound stupid if you frame it the right way. You dont have to teach me why twilight is called twilight. I've read the book five times, I've lectured people myself. Doesn't change the fact that it sounds like an irrelevant title XD

      polandbananasBOOKS I think Twilight could even make sense if the person picking it up does not know the story. It's the time between night and day which zo me suggests something with vampires and maybe entangeling with humans aka night and day and the inbetween lol

      Well, I'm from Brazil, and here those titles aren't very good
      I know you weren't meaning translations, but Mockingjay is called "The Hope" and, you know, that makes no sense
      This was one of the huge reasons why I read on English, but Thrush - how Mockingjay was translated to Portuguese - at least makes some sense

  • @NotBulletProof245
    @NotBulletProof245 7 лет назад +30

    I like titles that don't always make sense for the total story of the book but reference a line or something. I don't know if I explained that right, but for example, "I'll Give You The Sun." It barely has anything to do with the story, but when they said it I freaked out

    Stephenie Meyer was originally going to title the book Forks, but no one liked that so they went back and forth on the title. I think the titles of the Twilight Saga are a reference to Bella's introduction to the vampire world all the way to becoming a part of it herself.

    My favorite book title is Kaleidoscope Hearts by Claire Contreras. It is one of those book titles that don't make sense in the beginning but comes full circle by the end. And a "twilight-ish" title is Nevermore by Kelly Creagh (My favorite book EVER!) The title makes sense but it give any information on what the book is going be. Is it horror, mystery...its not. Its awesome.

    I think The Darkest Minds trilogy has nice titles. It’s in between Vampire Academy and Twilight I think cuz there’s obvious meaning while also being obscure and you have to think about it a little

    • @elysiatan
      @elysiatan 6 лет назад

      I love the feel of the title but I never really got it. Like yes there are “six” and yes they are “crows” but why “of”??? What relationship between the “six” and the “crows” is “of” supposed to show???

    Richelle Mead was originally going to call the Vampire Academy series “Kissed By Shadows” and her publishers said no. She sent them around 20-30 other titles, including “She Who Protects” but they wouldn’t settle until “Vampire Academy”.
    Also, vampires weren’t a big thing back then. The first book was released in 2007 so yeahhhh
    Not having a go, I’m just very passionate about this subject and how shitty Mead’s marketing was because the books are amazing (my favourite series yet - changed my life and got me into storytelling in the first place) hahaha triggered

    "I'll give you the sun" and "to kill a mockingbird" are two great examples of titles done right! If you look at the literal meaning of both of these phrases they relate to a very important but only small part of each of the books, but them the metaphorical meaning behind both of them encapsulate the main ideas of the books and they're so satisfying to think about once you've read the books and understand their significances.

    "Lily & Dash's Book of Dares". Love the book. Thought it was brilliant, but I don't think it would have caught my eye (as a contemporary) if they'd called it "Book of Dares".
