When they say not to judge a book by its cover, does that include the title too?

At first I thought, "Aww. It's an autobiography of him meeting his significant other." However, after reading the description, I was shocked to find out I was way off.
I am currently reading this book and I do like it a lot. The title does go with the story, but it's just not what you'd expect. He said it himself in the introduction, "...Margaret, the youngest and most influential of the unexpected gurus in my life... Since then, Margaret's positive impact has been ongoing. That's why I named this entire collection of stories after her."

Yes, the same goes for me. It was much more life-changing.Al Chakauya wrote: ↑01 Jan 2018, 13:25And Then I Met The Maasai Mother, would have been a better title for me because the story sounded grandeur to me.Al Chakauya wrote: ↑01 Jan 2018, 13:17Fo me, the story with Margaret didn't sound to be the most important one to "take" the book title. Any other story would've nailed it to be the book title for me but Margeret! Really?kandscreeley wrote: ↑01 Jan 2018, 12:46 I don't think it's necessarily indicative of a romance novel. I didn't get that idea from the title at all. I don't think it's a bad title.
