there are some books we reject just by seeing the title .. i mean some words which tell us a lot about the book and we try to skip those. ok i will give you an example

for me the words like millionaire billlionaire sheikh nanny etc are a real turn off

i mean the minute i see this in the title i expect a harlequin trash

i mean its not like i hate all those books out there .. but i feel i am in doubt if i should read this or not

so is there something in the title or a particular title that made u hesitate in reading it .. tell us did u like the read or not ??

Seeing the word Vampire in the title is a complete turn off straight away.
