I like “The Shy Beauty of Unnumbered Days”. It is the most poetic and the most mysterious. It makes me want to know what the story is about. And it reminds me of “The Unbearable Lightness of Being”, which didn’t do too badly. Then again, using ‘3,000’ continues the practice of starting your book titles with a number, which can become your “signature”.
I am here because of your excellent “Quotes on the Power of Positive Thinking” (at https://bit.ly/3BM8zrZ). Thank you for that.
Thanks Alan. The Unbearable Lightness is one of my favorite books. And yes, the whole number thing is a consideration…
#3 sounds poetic/flows
In the second set Days without numbers also has a bit of that feeling.
Good luck!
Thanks Sube!
My vote completely coordinates with the order you listed the titles!
I greatly like #1, followed closely by #2.
Thank you! #1 is definitely a front runner.
