Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. This week’s theme is a freebie so we can do whatever we’d like; make up our own top ten list or go back and do one we missed. I had actually pretty much written my Top Ten Tuesday post of Books with Numbers in the Title but didn’t get it finished and posted in time so I thought now was the perfect time to share it as I’d already done most of the work.
I’ve read and enjoyed all these books to varying degrees, though some I read so long ago that I remember little of them now and am not sure if they’d hold up if I read them today. If I have a review of any of them I’ve linked to it.
One of Us: The Story of a Massacre and its Aftermath by Åsne Seierstad
One of Us is Lying by Karen McManus
The Three by Sarah Lotz
Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo
The Rise of Nine by Pittacus Lore
The Twelve by Justin Cronin
Thirty Days by Annelies Verbeke
172 Hours on the Moon by Johan Harstad

Have you read any of these? What are some of your favourite book titles that have numbers in them?
I’m glad you liked Six of Crows!

I think it’s definitely one of my faves in this post 🙂
I haven’t read any of these, but I have been told recently that I simply MUST read Six of Crows! Good to see you liked it. 🙂

Happy TTT!

Oh yes Six of Crows is great! While technically it’s the first book in a separate duology, I do think reading the Shadow and Bone trilogy first is helpful. I’ve done it both ways now enjoyed it more the second time.
I’ve read Six of Crows and loved it, I enjoyed A Thousand Perfect Notes and One of Us Is Lying was only okay for me.

I think I got the ending of One of Us is Lying pretty quick, or at least I got the who but not the why.
I guessed it just before the characters did, and was kind of underwhelmed.
Six of Crows is excellent. Here is my post-https://paigesofbook.blogspot.com/2021/12/top-ten-tuesday-favorite-books-of-year.html.
It really is!
Thanks for stopping by 🙂
Titles with numbers in them are always so eye catching.
I think the same thing!
I enjoyed Six of Crows! Here is my Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
I love how just about every comment here is people sharing their love of Six of Crows 🙂
Only read ONE OF US IS LYING, SIX OF CROWS and (probably, forgot where I gave up on that series) THE RISE OF NINE. The numbers prompt was strangely hard for how easy it looked on the surface, wasn’t it?!
Good thing you saved this one for a rainy day! I loved A THOUSAND PERFECT NOTES.
Ooh One Of Us Is Lying- love that one. Did you see the show?
Can’t go wrong with Six Of Crows!
SIX OF CROWS IS SO GOOD. I love this prompt and am def adding some of these to my list!
I know! Ooh that’s always nice to hear 🙂
