Do you want to be the next best-selling author? Then, don't forget to add 'The girl' to its title 😶

Is it only me or does everyone see an increasing number of books having titles starting with ‘The Girl’? I wish I had enough time to go around hunting for the true origins of books that started this trend.

So are authors really banking in on the success of few books with such a title that have turned out to be bestsellers to try and give their books better publicity or reach? Has it become a sort of a brand-name? A brand-name that has many proven success stories and one that is freely available for use? ’ The Girl ’ a very general phrase and I’m pretty sure nobody can copyright its usage.

Anyways here are few of the dozens of books that come up with just a simple search.
