This week's theme: BOOKS WITH HONORIFICS IN THE TITLE like Miss, Lord, Captain, etc.
I made it easy on myself when coming up with my list and went with books from my own shelves. Here's my top ten:
Miss Lacey's Last Fling by Candice Hern
(One of those books I own that I haven't read yet.)
Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell by Susanna Clarke
(One of those books I didn't expect to like as much as I did.)
The Captain's Wallflower by Audrey Harrison
(A cute Regency romance.)
Lost Princess of Oz by L. Frank Baum
(My 4th favorite Oz book.)
The Locusts Have No King by Dawn Powell
(She's an underrated author imo.)
Mrs. Dalloway by Virginia Woolf
(This is one of my favs.)
The Lady is Daring by Megan Frampton
(A fun and a little bit steamy historical romance.)
The Duke Alone by Christi Caldwell
(A cute Christmas romance.)
The Detective Wins the Witch by Kristen Painter
(One of my most favorite paranormal romances.)
Admiral by Sean Danker
(The first book in an awesome science fiction series!)
Happy Reading!
I loved Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell! Great list.
ReplyDeleteIt was the best book! I loved it, too. :D
DeleteYou're the first blogger I've seen to use "detective," good call!
ReplyDeleteI was trying to use lots of different honorifics. Plus, I really like that book. :D
DeleteI’m curious about Admiral now.
ReplyDeleteI love that book! If you like science fiction at all, try it. You won't be sorry.
DeleteThat's an interesting list with some titles that I hadn't actually heard of. I've only read two of them.
ReplyDeleteWhich two?
DeleteNice list, Lark! I forgot to add Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell by Susanna Clarke to my list this week.
ReplyDeleteDon't you love that book? It was so good. I've always wished she'd write a sequel to it.
DeleteMrs Dalloway is on a lot of lists this week. It was my suggestion for the topic this week and I'm loving all these choices!

It was a great TTT suggestion! I had a lot of fun putting together this list. :D
DeleteThanks for the list.
ReplyDeleteHi, Mary!
DeleteI haven't heard of any of these books before. OK but Virginia Wolff, but never read it.

Virginia Woolf's books can be a little challenging because her style of writing is so different, but I liked Mrs. Dalloway.
DeleteYou highlighted some unique titles, and have quite the variety, I love it!
ReplyDeleteI was trying to go for a different honorific in each title. ;D
DeleteI'd still like to try that Kristen Painter series. I've read and enjoyed Christi Cauldwell, but not the one you've listed. Great list! :)
ReplyDeleteI love that Kristin Painter series! Just don't start with the first one; it's good, but not as good as the ones that follow. Save it and read one of her other ones first.
DeleteWonderful post
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteSuch a fun week with so many new titles. I read two of your books.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my post:
