posted by soe 1:05 am

This week’s Top Ten Tuesday from That Artsy Reader Girl asks us to share our favorite reads with one-word titles. I highly recommend all of these:

  1. Summerland by Michael Chabon
  2. Wonderstruck by Brian Selznick
  3. Eliot Schrefer’s Endangered
  4. Rooftoppers by Katherine Rundell
  5. Landline by Rainbow Rowell
  6. Naomi Novick’s Uprooted
  7. Booked by Kwame Alexander
  8. Obsidio (The final book in the Illuminae Files trilogy) by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff
  9. Thistlefoot by GennaRose Nethercott
  10. Mike Lupica’s Heat
Category: books. There is/are 5 Comments.



Oh how did none of the Illuminae trilogy pop into my head, that’s such a good pick!

Here is my post for the week: https://t.co/PchgeXue3q

Those first two one word titles give me summer vibes. I love it.

Great list of very evocative one-word titles. I especially like ROOFTOPPERS. Sounds like a fun read!

Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!

The only one of these I’ve read is Uprooted and I wasn’t a big fan, though I know I’m very much in the minority there!
