British statisticians have created a complex computer model that can determine a book's potential to become a bestseller solely by its title, with a success rate of nearly 70 percent. They compared every book since 1955 to have reached #1 on the New York Times' Bestseller List with their respective sales figures, but titles such as "Harry Potter" actually scored low in their model.
