TTT - Book Titles With Numbers In Them

The top 10 weekly meme used to be hosted by The Broke and the Bookish they  handed over the reins to ThatArtsyReaderGirl who can be found HERE.  Each week she will focus on lists which cover various topics related to books and reading.

 This week's topic is book titles with numbers in them. I don't really keep track of this so off to Goodreads we go!
Seven - Didn't really like it but I did read it.

 666 - Hmmm...maybe not the best number huh?

One - Wasn't thrilled with this one either.  Do I sense a trend?

Two - Aha!  One I gave 5/5.

Ten Thousand - Didn't think I'd find one that large.

Twelve - Sadly I don't think this series has another book anytime soon.

Six - Saved by the King!

One - I need to continue with this series.

One - Seems to be a popular number.

A Hundred - I ended on a good note - a favorite book and a cute dog!

So there are 10 books I've read with numbers and I only had to go back to 2015 to find enough.

    I went for books I read and enjoyed with numbers in the title but there weren't as many as I expected to find! I do have a lot with number titles still to read though so that may be a future TTT list!

    OMG, I squealed when I saw the cover for A Hundred Pieces of me -- the little one is so cute! (Also, great list, I couldn't figure out if I could make a couple of entries never mind 10)

      It's such an awesome book. You really need to try out the author. I think you'd like her.

      It wasn't bad, but I was wanting a Christmas read and it really didn't have a lot to do with Christmas.

      It was a good read. As with most collections, some stories were better than others.

      It was a fun topic and I thought I'd hate it.

    I didn't participate today but this prompt does look like fun. A couple of these I loved and a couple are still gathering dust on my TBR. :)

    I think the most popular numbers-in-titles are probably one and one hundred. Funny how you didn’t like everything you read with numbers in the titles.

    I hope you will stop by and take a look at my post.

    I'm not familiar with any of these, but I still enjoyed reading through your list. The 12 Days of Christmas book is quite popular! I've seen it on several lists!

      Jo - if you've not read any Lucy Dillon you must. She has as bunch of companion books centered around a small English town and their dogs play a huge role. In this one, Gina gets divorced and starts over. She rescues a greyhound named Buzz and together they sort through her belongings and she vows to only keep things of importance. Some of the other books are Lost Dogs and Lonely Hearts, The Secret of Happy Ever After, and Walking Back to Happiness.

    I've been curious about One Day in December. I think you're the first I've seen that wasn't thrilled with it so now I'm even more curious lol.

      Most loved it. It wasn't bad but I was expecting a Christmas centered tale - and it wasn't.
