This title sounds much more appropriate for a mystery. It's also more intriguing and sounds modern. I think the other title sounds a little degrading towards the woman's disability as well.
I'd be more likely to read a book with the title in A. It really caught my attention and made me feel like the book would be interesting. I'd be more willing to read a thriller with a title like this.
I choose option A because thee title is intriguing and makes you curious about the book. I would not even be attracted at all to option B.
It makes more sense than the other option.
This one makes more sense for what the story is about, hands free sounds like a book teaching you about new phone technology or something.
To be honest I don't particularly care for either one, but of the two I prefer Option A. It, at least, gives a sense of mystery and crime whereas Option B just sounds odd and "off".
I think this title describes the content of the book a bit more than the other. It makes the reader know that the murder mystery is related to a computer in some way and hints at the story line.
I choose A because the book title relates to the death, which is also the main idea of the book.
I like this title draws my attentions faster makes start to think how it read and how exciting tit would be to read ,I would but this to read it makes me have a wonder about it .
I definitely think A, Blue Screen of Death, is the better title. I think it sounds intriguing and does a really good job of converting the murder mystery and technology aspects of the book.
I don't like either of these but death makes me think more of a murder where as hands free makes me think of tech or self help
I chose A because this title gives me more of a sense of what the book and story are about.
Seems to make more sense as about social media than being hands free.
This title suggests the computer monitor. Cool plot.
A is awesome with the blue screen. What a great idea for this book.
I think A is more computer related and related to someone dying, vs. B, I'm not really getting the connection.
I would choose Option A because this woman is using clues found on social media, therefore she is looking at her computer screen to solve this crime. This title makes sense and is the one that I would choose. I don't like the title in Option B, and I don't know how that would relate to the story.
Having gotten the "blue screen of death" on a couple computers in my lifetime, I can appreciate the play on words. Considering the character has to use a computer to solve her friend's death, I think this is a good title for the book.
A seems wildly entertaining and catchy.
The other title doesn't fit as you need hands to access the computer.
I like Blue Screen of Death since it plays on what happens to a computer when it freezes
Title A suggests a thriller and makes you want to know more about it, B sounds like an instruction manual
this one is funny to me but also the story is really about death so i really like it
I think this sounds better because there using a blue screen . She is trying to solve a murder. So this one is better. Hands free doesnt really make since with this one.
This title resembles the description better than the other. It also sounds more intriguing and makes me want to find out more about the book
I think the Blue Screen of Death sounds more catchy compared to the other title. It makes me curious to see what the book is about and it plays well with the summary of the book.
Since I have recently experienced a blue screen on my computer and am concerned, that is why I am choosing A. Also this title is the best won because it refers to death and the woman is trying to prove that there was a murder.
I think this is more ominous . It sounds like something I would not be able to put down
Option A has to do with death and she is trying to prove her friend did not committ suicide
Neither really work. Hands Free doesn't seem to have anything to do with the plot. A is too generic. I'm not a mystery writer, and am having a problem giving my current work a title, but I think something like "See her Smile" might work better. Good luck.
A is much more descriptive of what the book is actually about. It also grabbed my attention quite quickly
I chose A because it tells me there was a death but is vague about what the death is. I'd want to know how someone died.
I'm not really a big fan of either of these titles, but option A would be the best out of these options. I am a little confused by option B. I don't know what that would have to do about this book summary. At least option A has the word death in it so it kind of goes with the summary a little bit.
There is no other acceptable choice. Blue Screen of Death will always win.
I prefer Option A, but I have to honestly say, I am not sure that either correctly gives the reader an understanding of what the book is about.
I choose A because the title draws me in, it tells me that the book maybe about a death of a person then when I read the summary I know it is a murder mystery
I didn't really like either choice, but thought Choice A went better with the story line. I would think of computers if I saw this title. I wouldn't know what the book was about with Choice B and probably wouldn't pay as much attention to it.
This is the better choice for the title of the book because it represents the story or what the book is about better. Someone did die and this implies there is death in this book. Choice B the title did not imply what the book is about and it makes you think it's about someone with no hands so I chose A.
Neither really fits but Option A is the best of the two.
This title is more intriguing, captivating and compelling.
hands free seems like a type of driving. where as blue screen of death sounds more about murder
Just seems like a book I would read
I don't know what hands free has to do with anything in the book at least the blue screen of death gives you the idea that someone dies and computers are involved
Option A sounds like a much more interesting title for the concept of this book.
It is relatable since most people know what the blue screen on a computer means. B is too generic a title.
I like Option A because it makes me think that the book is a mystery. It makes me excited to learn more about the mystery. I don't like Option B as much because it doesn't clearly show what the book is about.
Prefer A as it seems like a murder mystery that will have a technology focus.
I like Blue Screen of Death, as a millenial. It's cheeky and nostalgic, and makes me think this will be a fun, trashy read.
I prefer the blue screen title due to its association with Windows computer software, computer crashes and its relevancy to the described story of using computer(s) and posts on social media to investigate the mystery of the friend's death. Hands free doesn't have this connotation or symbolism associated with it and seems more of a reference to using a speaker phone or a cell phone with blue tooth in a vehicle to talk while driving rather than any mystery story references.
I don't really care for either title, but Option A fits with a murder mystery. Hands free makes me think of today's phones hooked up in a car, which doesn't fit the story plot.
I like Option A, "Blue Screen of Death" as the title because the title lets me know this is about a mysterious death, and involves technology in some way. This title is intriguing, and makes me want to learn more about the book.
It's a more interesting and active title for this plot
I love the term. I have been using that for over 20 years. It is a clever name for a murder mystery involving computers.
I prefer Option A Blue Screen of Death because it's a captivating title that I associate with something sudden. Also, having death in the title indicates in might be a murder mystery. Option B seems a bit too dated (sounds like a car commercial from 5 years ago). Considering the protagonist uses a wheelchair, a title implying someone has no hands also could be tone deaf.
I chose option A because it gives a clue that it has to do with murder and death. Option B is too vague.
Since this individual will be at a screen on social media trying to solve her friends death, it makes sense to use a computer term to make a word play on the summary of the novel.
Hands free sounds too vague.
Option A sounds more appealing Option B sounds like a manual on a car speaker
I chose option A because I like how that title is more clear about what the book will be about. I like how mentioning the blue screen relates to the idea of social media posts being used to prove that her friend was murdered. In contrast, I thought option B was too vague to be used for a title for a book with this kind of story plot.
Actually, neither. But since I have to chose one, I'll go with the one that has a hint that a computer might be involved. Hand free could mean a driverless car or any number of items.
I chose (A) Blue Screen of Death, because it peeks my interest, and it also implies this book is going to be a mystery where death will be involved.
I like Blue Screen of Death. Hands Free is okay too. The summary sounds very exciting and I love a solid mystery. Blue screen of death fits more with the social media aspect.
I actually don't like either of the titles and would not choose a book to read the description of further.
This title to me seems to make me more curious and it also seems a bit creepy.
I like A more because it seems more interesting and mysterious. It makes me want to figure out what happened. It's not as vague.
I would wonder more about the book with this title rather than a vague title like "Hands Free." I don't see where the title in option B fits to the book description but would be enticed to read the book by Option A's title. It's kind of a play on words referring to a computer and referring to the death of her friend. It would fit the book much better and sounds more mysterious.
Blue Screen of Death makes it sound more like a mystery and is, of course, a reference to the infamous computer malady as well, giving the title a couple of different meanings.
A is the best one for me because it leaves you wanting to know more. This book sounds so good and the title goes with the story line as well. This is the one I would read first.

Sounds like by clearing her friends name it would free her.
it sounds better and a little more ambiguous, the other one is kind of annoying.
other one sounds too dark and not very interesting.
Blue Screen of Death is too associated with computers for it to work as a book title for a murder mystery
Option B, Hands Free, sounds more intriguing and interesting to read. I would choose Option B.
Optoin B gives you more to think about then social media, wheelchair bound and with a mystery to solve sounds like a great read
Hands Free sounds better but I think it needs some work.
I chose B because the title says to me she did not commit suicide, she was hands free meaning she didn't use her own hands to die.
I like that it is a clever title and doesn't give away too much but leaves a little bit to the imagination
I like the play on words, that the woman in a wheelchair is literally, "hands free," in that she doesn't have full use of her body, but her hands are free to do the computer work to investigate the death of her friend's death. Option A, "Blue Screen of Death," is when the computer isn't working at all, so it's not really the correct description.
I think B will speak more to the accessible crowd market. Both are pretty good though.
Option B has a better ring to it and doesn't sound corny or cheesy. It is a better match for what the book is about and would give people a better idea of what is being offered. It is unique and doesn't sound like anything we have heard of or seen before. It is also ambiguous enough that makes you interested in learning more about what it has to offer. Option B would grab the attention of a wider audience of people and would make them more likely to pick it up to see what it has to offer.
B is more modern and caught my attention. It’s a good title for this book!
This title is simple but intriguing
A just sounds weird. B is better but doesn't make sense- she has use of her hands just not her legs
I like this one because it makes you think there might be more than one thing about the show. The other one is just too morbid and I find that things with the title having the word death..is never helpful and people tend to shy away from it.
Neither but B if I had to choose.
I don't actually like either, but I dislike option A more. Blue screen of death isn't about social media or murder so I don't think it gets the point of the plot across at all.
I feel like there are more layers of meaning to hands free, specifically perhaps describing the part of the protagonist's body that feels "free" because she can use them?
I like title B more because it's more fitting with the woman being handicapped and not physically being able to investigate. Knowing what a blue screen of death is and what it means, I don't think its a fitting title at all.
I like Hands Free. The other one sounds almost too dramatic, too cheesy, and lacks the depth that the plot seems to have. It just makes it sound like a cheesy horror movie instead of a thriller. I like Hands Free, or even consider another option? I just think blue screen of death sounds too over the top.
Hands Free is a really interesting title since the main character is in a wheel chair and likely relies heavily on her hands. It implies she is somewhat "handicapped" in her ability to solve the mystery.
BSOD makes me laugh, but then I’d feel bad about it and probably not buy the book after all.
Neither title really makes sense - but I like the shorter, less "angsty" one.
I don't like choice A at all, so option B is my choice.
Option A sounds cheesy and weird.
This is most relevant to the description provided
I don’t like any of them. I don’t think they really relate to the plot well
I don't really care for either, they both seem very generic but Hands Free seems more appropriate.
Blue Screen of Death is a horrible title. Please delete this from choices.
'hands free' is more curiousity inducing, and has more positive connotations that would entice a reader to look closer. 'blue screen of death' is fairly dated.
B is a little more serious and more relevant to the situation. Brings it all together in a way that has a double meaning and makes sense, also memorable and short but emotional.
