Top Ten Tuesday: In a Word | One Word Book Titles

 
Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl.

This week's Top Ten Tuesday topic: 
Books with Single-Word Titles

This week's actual topic (Books Titles That Are Complete Sentences) just was not working for me. After I'd browsed through half a dozen pages of my Read shelf on Goodreads I had exactly one viable option. So I decided to go to the opposite end of the spectrum and go with one word titles. I've done this before but it's been over a year so why not? Here are my picks for book titles that got it done with just one word.



    








Have you read any of these books?

  1. Great list! I don't think I've heard of any of these, but I've heard so many good things about Jennifer L. Armentrout's books.

  2. Now one word titles are actually harder for me. I did read Grip, which I liked, and DNFed Snapped.

  5. The prompt this week wasn't working for me either. I couldn't find any of the books I have on my shelf to fit. I've heard amazing things about Birthday by Meredith Russo, but haven't read it yet. Great list!

  10. Yeah, I saw Greg do the sentence one and thought it was impressive lol

    One word titles is a great spin on it though.
