See explanation.

Explanation:

You could either write the titles in quotation marks or italicize it.

Example:

In my opinion "Hamlet" is the best play written by Shakespeare.

Here I used quotation marks to indicate title, but I can also rewrite the sentence using italic font:

In my opinion Hamlet is the best play written by Shakespeare.
