I quite like the title. It does, by default, suggest to me a book that is humorous, or at least very self-aware in tone. In addition to the usual cues of publisher, cover design, etc., I think it might make a difference to me whether the book was in first person or third. If it's in first person, then the title is the sort of thing a slightly wry and self-aware narrator might give to their own story, which would suggest positive things to me. If it's in third person, then that tilts the title in the direction of being arch. Or cute. Which could be good or bad, depending.
