Reader Rayna

Welcome to another Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by Jana of That Artsy Reader Girl! Today’s topic is a genre freebie, meaning we can talk about anything relating to any genre we choose and create a list from it. So say, for instance, we wanted to talk about mystery novels with unreliable narrators, or gothic novels with birds on the cover, etc.

For my list, I wanted to showcase fantasy books that have single word titles. I feel like when we see fantasy books, they generally have very long titles, but very rarely do we see them have singular word titles. So I wanted to point out a few that are on my own shelves that I’d like to read in the near future, or have read before/am currently reading!

• Godkiller by Hannah Kaner
• Quicksilver by Callie Hart
• Hollow by Caroline Peckham and Susanne Valenti
• Legenborn by Tracy Deonn
• Alchemised by SenLinYu
• Sistersong by Lucy Holland
• Belladonna by Adalyn Grace
• Foundryside by Robert Jackson Bennett
• Nevernight by Jay Kristoff
• Kaikeyi by Vaishnavi Patel

There’s a small sampling of books that are fantasy one word titles. Looking through my shelves, it was honestly not as tough as I thought it would be, but by and large one word titles are in the minority. There’s others I missed, but not many, really!

Let me know of a fantasy book you’d recommend that’s a one word title in the comments below! Happy reading and enjoy your Tuesday!
