Which book would you rather read?
Option A won this Ranked poll with a final tally of 28 votes after 3 rounds of votes counting.
In a Ranked poll, respondents rank every option in order of preference. For example, when you test 6 options, each respondent orders their choices from first to sixth place.
PickFu requires a majority to win a Ranked poll. A majority winner differs from a plurality winner. A majority winner earns over 50% of the votes, whereas a plurality winner earns the most votes, regardless of winning percentage.
If an option does not earn a majority of votes, PickFu eliminates the option with the lowest number of votes. The votes from the eliminated option are reassigned based on each respondent’s next choice. This process continues in rounds until a majority winner emerges.
Scores reflect the percentage of total votes an option receives during the vote counting and indicate the relative preference of the respondents. If there is no majority winner, look to the scores to see how the options fared relative to one another.
Option | Round 1 | Round 2 | Round 3 |
---|---|---|---|
A | 36% 18 votes | 40% 20 votes +2 | 56% 28 votes +8 |
D | 32% 16 votes | 36% 18 votes +2 | 44% 22 votes +4 |

I really think A does a better job of grabbing my attention on the first line when it says quickest.
Option A sells me heavily by using the word "easy" in the title, making me feel like what it states is actually achievable.
This arrangement is more relevant to this order and this is more informative
The book I would rather read is Option A. I think this title is more appealing with the words 'The Quickest & Easiest Way', it grabs my attention and would make me want to read more of the book.
This arrangement is more relevant to this order and this is more informative
The description and story line and top notch.
I chose A first because the title clearly suggests the content of the book and does so in a way that makes it sound accessible. I placed B second because, while I appreciate it, it is a bit more convoluted than A. I placed D and C last because the titles were a bit more oblique.
I prefer this option. I feel we are running out of time with regard to climate issues. This option is the 'quickest' way to the solution. It's that sense of urgency that made my decision for this option.
I think all of these are way too long. It should be shortened into something that's far easier to grasp. I also hope it discusses the pros and cons of each option, because I often find stuff that promotes what are presented as 'moral choices' have a tendency to leave out the negative side (for example with soy, not mentioning it's an annual crop and can't continuously be planted in the same spot, so you have to raze more land to keep growing, or with solar, the pollution created in production).But mainly, it needs to be shortened a lot.
Option A has a good hook with the "quickest way" as part of the title. Option D is the most straightforward. I like B as well. And, honestly, those are all close enough that I could imagine changing my order later. I'm not a fan of C as it feels a bit like a infomercial ad
The Quickest & Easiest Way To " Zero Carbon Future" seems to be the more exciting and intriguing title because it is the most attractive concept.
I think a lot of people who read would appreciate it being quick and easy to understand
A and C makes you know that it is quick and easy to go zero carbon. D and B don't make it clear until later in the title which people probably won't read.
People like things quick it easy. They feel like they would accomplish more with this. The title says what goals they are trying to achieve in a more straightforward manner.
Leading out with the words Quick and Easy is appealing
I love that option A uses keywords like "fast and quick". This makes the books sound like a great read that will not take that long to finish.
I like option A because it sounds like a light read that is easy to follow.
i ranked depending upon the description of the books
6 Responses to Option B
I'd probably rather Choice B's title if I was going to read one of these. It sounds the most legitimate. I don't think I've seen too many books that promise "secrets" and actually end up to be as groundbreaking as they make it seem, it's an obvious up-sell that puts me off from it. Similar story with "Quick and Easy", especially for a topic like this, which clearly isn't easy since the world still hasn't tackled it. D is good but a little too sparse, I think B sells it the best, in a believable fashion and in a way that makes you interested to read it.
The never suffer one can't be guaranteed. I chose B because it focuses on fast track rather than secrets, which is more active word usage.
Option B was my first choice because it sounded the most exciting out of all the options. Option A was my second choice because that description also had energy to it but it wasn't as effectively written as option B. Option C was my third choice because that was decently written but sort of bland. Option D was my last choice because it sounded too clunky.
B is most user friendly and is to the point
B is More Detailed for rather read / C is Good / D is Good / A is Not bad
Options B and D titles are good, I like that they're not hard to understand, but still intelligent in a way.

C and D make the most grammatical sense so I would rather read either. A and B don't sound like naturally written language so I would avoid them.
"Secrets to..." intrigues me the most. "Quickest and easiest..." and "Fast track..." are also good because they promise a book that is easily understood by a non-expert.
Everyone is keen to knowing "Secrets", which is a powerful word that hooks one and makes them want to find out more.
I like the inclusion of the word secrets. Between all of these, my top Choice is the best
I like c with the positive overall message. Nice and concise.
I think the words, "Secrets to" are very eye catching and would draw the attention of the viewer to them.
Option C is best-worded to be on topic (utility costs), followed by Option B ("inflationary" strays off-topic in my opinion). Option A only mentions buildings, and leaves out the groups of people and entities who/that can benefit (i.e. business, home). Option A sounds too much like puffery.
I think Option C is the best sounding description/title compared to the other three. Everything except Option C sounds a bit salesmen like and isn't really believable considering the topic of the book. Option C at least sounds sensible.
I feel that this is the most to the point and well written, though as a general critique, these are all very wordy and should be edited down by a lot.
I choose option C because it grabbed my attention because it said secrets at the beginning and it intrigued me

Grammatically, the title for option D is the cleanest, easiest to read. It gives a great overview of the various topics that are expected to be covered in the book.
honestly only D appeals to me - B A and C are all using gimmicky language which i tend to ignore. D is the best answer
I don't trust words like quick, easy, and fast when it comes to something as complex as zero carbon future. However I like the idea of the ultimate guide for our next generations.
In order by preference - D is best then B C and A
D has the easiest to remember opening and sounds realistic. B is good too as "fast track" makes it sound actionable, but "secrets to" sounds sort of low quality, just like "quickest and easiest" also sounds sort of cheap.
D is the only one that doesn't sound like some kind of get rich quick scheme until the rest of the choices.
These are all FAR too long, wordy and frankly all look like something off a Dr. Bronner's bottle. I picked D because it was the most coherent, but barely so.
I picked choice D as my first choice, followed by choice B...I like choice D the most, as the words "ultimate guide" really help establish the guide as a one stop source for all the information one would need, which would imply that this book would be all you would need. The words" Zero Carbon Future" would also be a great goal if one was looking for a great source on helping to combat climate change, as this would be the ultimate desired result.
I chose D as my favorite because not everyone knows what a Zero Carbon Future is so by explaining it you can help broaden the appeal of the book
My choice is option D as rank 1 because of the content is described very well and easily understand the content so i choose this as my choice.
A felt too long and clunky. The titles for B and C felt a lot more punchy and concise so they grabbed my attention more immediately.
I prefer the option D book title because zero carbon future is the main title text with no extra unnecessary words. I chose option C second because it would be good to learn more about the secrets to a zero carbon future. I chose option B third because a fast track to a zero carbon future sounds like quick and efficient way to learn about the zero carbon future. I chose option A last because this book tittle is very long and is the only one that does not use the ultimate guide phrase in the subtitle of the book title.
I prefer option D because the title is not headed with a cheesy hook line that usually lies to the reader. The title is straight in the beginning followed by the word guide so the reader knows exactly what he is going to buy.
"D" does not refer to secrets or fast=track. Just reveals various facts. I like that.
I like reading detailed books, and I find the book on option D to be detailed and hence I would prefer to read it.
I would choose choice D first because the title is really catching one's attention and it also sends some sense of hope and believe into the future for a carbon free nation or tomorrow then choice B will be next with the title trying to sell the idea in a more realistic and natural way to the reader then choice C which really has a title which is not covering the whole idea of the book and the title is not attractive to the reader, the last option will be A which has a very flat tittle and it does not get the readers attention.
