I'm trying to read some adventure MG/YA books. Mine is an adventure book and I like reading those types of books too. I have read Hatchet(be returning that at our next meeting too, Beth) and I need some recommendations. So if you know of a great adventure read give me a shout out. :)

Thanks for the title tips and I am seriously considering them. In other words, Shadows and Hemlock, as a title for my book is O-U-T, out! Why is the title so critical? Aren't the pages inside what's important? I mean, the words and sentences and voice, that is what is so crucial to get right. Why then am I struggling with this title? Is it to catch an agents eye? I hope my story will do that.

I have read what other writers have said about titles. It's very important to have that right one. Why is it so hard for me? And maybe I'm spending way too much time thinking about this. To be continued... :)

  1. hmmmm... off the top of my head, I can only think of the Misty of Chincoteague books!

    The Hunger Games was futuristic, but about survival, so it might fit what you're looking for...
