Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.
Books with a Unit of Time in the Title
I’m not going to lie. This prompt stumped me a little bit. No books came immediately to my mind. I had to use my Excel spreadsheet with my 1200+ TBR for help. Here are my top ten eight books with a unit of time in the title:
Books I’ve Read
Books on My TBR
What about you? Which books made your list this week? Do we have any in common?
Thanks! I thought the same thing about a few words that others used when I went blog hopping too, mostly the names of days of the week and months. I didn’t even think of those, lol.
Well done! I think this challenge is easier for some Genre’s. I had a bit of a tough time with it too. Science fiction would have a lot of time titles I would think.
I was kind of thinking the same thing. I think sci-fi, thrillers, and maybe erotica. I saw a lot of lists with thrillers and erotica today where the blogger didn’t seem to have any trouble with today’s prompt.
Same! I was really struggling to come up with any titles until it dawned on me that I could just search my TBR lists on Goodreads. Easy peasy.
SPLIT SECOND is the only book I’ve read from your list. Kasie West’s books are so fun, but man, it’s hard to keep up with authors who publish as much as she does. Not that I’m complaining! I wish all my favorite authors published that often.
Lol. That makes me laugh that after you started searching Goodreads it became easy peasy. It still wasn’t easy peasy for me. I must not read or want to read a lot of books with units of time in the title. Ha!
And, yes, Kasie West, Kiersten White, Sarah J. Maas, and Cassandra Clare all publish books so fast that I can’t keep up with them. It’s a good problem to have, though. I’d rather have too many books to read than not enough.
Fun choices… but what I really love is hearing about your Excel spreadsheet! 🙂 I keep those too — for everything really, but they’re essential for all my various reading tracking needs!
That’s cool that you have an excel spreadsheet for your various reading tracking needs. I love mine. I use it in conjunction with Goodreads because GR doesn’t keep track of everything I want it to. Plus, I can sort things the way I want to with Excel. I can go all nerdy, which I’m sure you understand. 😀
Wasn’t that a fun topic this week? I’m always amazed how many different books there are. I didn’t know any of yours. No, that’s wrong, my son has read “Artemis Fowl” and I’ve heard of Neil Gaiman but never read any of his books.
Yes, it always amazes me how many books there are and how many of them I don’t know about. 😀 (Sorry it took me so long to respond. I came down with COVID. 🤒🤧😷)
I love that you got Isla in, too! And I don’t blame you for only reaching 8–I found 5 hard today!
I’m glad I’m not the only one who found it hard, lol. 😀
Smart! I didn’t think of using things like Eternity or Forever!
Thanks! I thought the same thing about a few words that others used when I went blog hopping too, mostly the names of days of the week and months. I didn’t even think of those, lol.
You did great!! I totally read Forever and didn’t even include it! haha. Isla is also a great pick but I haven’t read that one yet!
Thanks, Leslie! 😀 I understand. I had to divide mine up because I didn’t have enough books I’ve read so it worked out to have books on my TBR.

You are not alone, it stumped me too! Interesting list!
Thanks, Cindy! 😀 It’s always good to find that we’re not alone, isn’t it?

Hope you get to read some on your TBR.
