Do you want a judgment based on the title!? For one, I would cross The Raven I-XXIX off your list because that title is already takenWww@QuestionHome@Com

Write The Dark Labyrinth IX and The Raven XXV!. Those are the ones I most want to read!.

"Nightmares & Dreams of Holden Chambers" reminds me of Stephen King's "Nightmares and Dreamscapes!."

Being too much like Stephen King should be your biggest problem!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Um, what are they about!? It doesn't even say the genre!.
There is some thing online that indicates the chances that your title will become a bestseller, if that's what you hope to find out!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

THE VAMPIRE CLUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUB!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

LMAO!.!.!.!. how could I possibly know which of these are good based only on the titles!? Write the book first, THEN title it!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

the days of merry rose after sam raymondWww@QuestionHome@Com

"Drive" sounds good!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

harry potterWww@QuestionHome@Com

if you planned it you should know!. why ask!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Ballad of the Gunman

I just love that!. It's the kind of title that would actually grab my attention and make me pull a random book off the shelf!. I think it's the contrast of ballads and gunshots!.!.!. ^^

Yeah, some of them sound fairly Stephen King-esque, but so long as he doesn't actually have a book by that title, I don't see that it matters!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Look, I don't have any idea what any of the would-be novels on your list might be about, so it wouldn't mean a thing if I picked a title and told you to write that book!. Basically, it doesn't matter which novel you write first!. Most first novels don't get finished, and very, very few of them get published (almost never without extensive rewriting)!. Fifth novels get published, because by the time you have written four novels you will have probably learned enough the hard way to possibly write one that might be published!. Stop wasting your time "planning" and making lists of titles, and get on with it!. You have a lot of bad writing to wade through before you'll begin to figure out what you can do and what you can't do; once you know your strengths and limitations, you'll probably find that you don't want to writing anything on your overly long list of poor titles!. You might, however, be ready to write a decent book after you've written four or more that are utter duds!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
