The best book titles don't just sum up a book. They grab the reader's attention. A good title is important. That's why I'm always impressed when a one-word title gets me to pick up a book and read the synopsis.
Here are 12 titles that got my attention and made me spend my money.
🔍 Attention-Grabbing One-Word Book Titles 👀
What's your favorite one-word book title?
Educated was such a good read.
ReplyDeleteHere is my Top Ten Tuesday post.
Dry and Scythe were so good!
ReplyDeleteThese are all great examples, and interesting that so many are classics!
ReplyDeleteI liked Blankets.
ReplyDeleteHere is our Top Ten Tuesday.
Educated was a good one.
ReplyDeleteSuch good choices! They are all attention-grabbers. I've only read Hatchet and Educated, but I really liked both of them. :D
ReplyDeleteThere are some really awesome one word titles out there. and they can be really compelling when paired with a great cover.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great list! I haven't read any of these, but several caught my eye. So many great covers, too. Thanks for sharing.

I read Holes many years ago but don't remember much about it. I've always thought Blankets looked interesting.
ReplyDeleteI almost added Stargirl and You to my list too. I loved both of those books.
ReplyDeleteI actually read a few on this list. Alright! Holes is a great book.
ReplyDeleteWow! All of these book titles sound awesome! Great list!

I've read half of these. DRY is a great read. It was so evocative and atmospheric that I wanted to drink water constantly while reading it! Ha ha.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT (on a Wednesday)!
I've read quite a few of these! Neal Shusterman's books are always thought provoking reads and I enjoyed both Dry and Scythe (though I've yet to read the other books in the series)-he seems to really like a one word title as well as a lot of his books are titled that way. I preferred the Netflix series of You to the book, I felt the book was oddly bloated for one that was fairly short and the series trimmed out some of the stuff that seemed kind of extraneous when I read it. I love Vicious, it's one of my favourite books (I mean I love VE Schwab in general but Vicious is definitely up there for me in terms of my favourite books of hers!).

I keep eyeing Stargirl at the bookstore and I never end up getting it. Maybe this will change my mind. Happy reading! My TTT https://readwithstefani.com/my-top-ten-favorite-contemporary-romance-books/
ReplyDeleteNice list. My mind is drawing a blank ... all I can think of is Pachinko which I liked.
ReplyDeleteGreat list!
