I totally agree. The title does justice to the plot.

Having considered this book content, I'm convinced it deserved this title. It befits the book content. Thriller fictions can create a little fear amongst the readers.

I think the title befits the book. Abduction, kidnapping, and everything mentioned in the book are quite scary. Therefore, i think the title is perfect for thus book.

Actually,I had no real problems with this book's title. It suits this book considering the actions taking place within the book.

In my opinion, the author ought to at least come up with a better title. Perhaps a simple one word title that can draw readers in and let them know right away that this is a suspense novel.

I agree wholeheartedly. I almost didn't read the book because I am not a fan of the horror genre. The cover and title could turn away potential readers unnecessarily.

I think it depends on the structure of the reader"s mind. Yes, to some it may sound as a horror story. To others it may be different altogether. However, I do believe there was room to make it even better.

The cover art strikes me as a horror story with ghosts and other-worldly occurrences. In that regard, I find it a bit mismatched with the stroryline.

The Face of Fear along with its cover can be draw in some readers who may not normally read a mystery. I usually pick up a book based on title, then further investigate by reading the book summary provided by the publisher. To me, the title is a marketing tool that draws in a potential reader. Fear can point towards a victim or even a perpetrator. Thus, I think the Face of Fear as a title allows for a broader interpretation and can be appropriate outside of the horror genre.

The cover page and title leads the perception that the book is wholely horror based, so it may get passed on by some people who love thriller.

Although it can be mistaken for a horror story, there is nothing wrong with the title in relation to the true nature of the book.

To my opinion the title fits the plot. The people being kidnapped actually face fear.

I haven't read this book yet because of the title and the cover. It scares you before you even read it.

Ghost is an appropriate title because it adds that element of surprise and mystery to it. It draws in the reader and makes them inquisitive. Plus the killer is a masked man; in other words more like a ghost.

When looking at the combination of ghostface (because of Scream) and the title, I think it's very easy to perceive it as horror. The title on its own seems pretty fitting though.

Given that the title is on a cover, it is not possible for our brain to not draw a relation between the two. The author has played very carefully with the selection of the title since it evokes a major proportion of the audience to give it a read. The title isn't random either. It coincides well with the plot in terms of the murders and mysteries.
