top ten books with ordinal numbers in their titles
posted by soe 1:38 am

This week’s Top Ten Tuesday topic from That Artsy Reader Girl invites us to share ten books with titles that contain ordinal numbers. I wanted to give you just one for each, but capped out of individual numbers I’d read at nine. I’ve doubled up on “first,” which is also the number that appears most in books I’ve listed as to-read.

  1. First Among Sequels by Jasper Fforde
  2. The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight by Jennifer E. Smith
  3. The Bookshop of Second Chances by Jackie Fraser
  4. The Fourth Bear by Jasper Fforde
  5. The Last Fifth Grade of Emerson Elementary by Laura Shovan
  6. Ninth Ward by Jewell Parker Rhodes
  7. Twelfth Knight by Alexene Farol Follmuth
  8. The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield
  9. Miracle on 34th Street by Valentine Davies
  10. The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street by Karina Yan Glaser
