It's ideal for Robert Leet to have chosen this specific title. However, I believe that the artwork also puts emphasis to it. Had he chosen a different artwork, maybe the title wouldn't have made the same first impression.

Indeed, a short title is memorizable and easy to connect with. The other thing that makes the title ideal, is that Robert Leet doesn't begin the book by diving into matters that are affected by time. The way the plot builds up on time itself is what makes the book and the title perfect.

I am a reader, not because I don't have a life, but because I choose to have many.

I completely agree with you! I think it’s a great title, especially given how the book ends ( with Ron saying awareness creates time)! I think Ron really started to think of time in a new way in the book, especially because Regina is able to manipulate time!

The evidence of awareness creates time is Ron's realization that he can impact kids positively with his expertise in chess. He now had time for important things because he was more aware. Unlike before he was having a comparatively balanced life. Yes,Robert Leet ended Timewise on a positive note.

I hadn't done a search of the title on Amazon. That's a wonderful observation. The title suits the cover image too and a huge percentage of the book. There are numerous ideas of topics that could fit this book. But having found out about it's uniqueness to other titles on Amazon, makes it more ideal.Juliet+1 wrote: ↑24 Nov 2020, 13:24 I think the title is perfect. It suggests both time travel and other ways of being "wise about time" but could cover other themes as well. And, just for fun, I searched that title on Amazon and found only one other book with the same title. That's unusual; it's a real challenge to find a title so unique that there are not a dozen or more books with the same title. So, you have a title that fits the story and is perfect for marketing too. I don't see how anyone could do better.

The core of this novel is centered on time traveling through the means of physics. I think the books' Title Fits most plots embedded in it.Joseph_ngaruiya wrote: ↑31 Oct 2020, 23:55 When I first came across the book, I thought it was addressing how time affected our daily lives. The cover art also portrayed the scientific concept of time. But after reading the book, I believe the author could have chosen a different title to entice the reader. Ron is on a journey to find out who he is and what he is capable of doing. Did you find Timewise to be appropriate, or do you have other suggestions for a better title?
So, I did find Timewise to be the appropriate Title for the book.
