Book Titles That Caught My Eye

Book Titles That Caught My Eye

August 9, 2022 Posted by angelreads Top Ten Tuesday 6 Comments

This week I changed the topic just a little to suit me a bit more, and I’m sharing the titles that caught my eye. Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and Bookish and is hosted by The Artsy Reader Girl. 

As I said I changed this theme around because I didn’t really have many books with funny titles, so I’m sharing those titles that caught my eye. The ones that grabbed me before I even saw the cover. There is a mix of titles here, from romance to young adult. I don’t really know what about the titles catches my eye. Sometimes it’s those keywords or an interesting title that I haven’t seen before. As always these are in no order. 

The Never King (Vicious Lost Boys #1) by Nikki St. Crowe | That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon (Mead Mishaps #1) by Kimberly Lemming. | The Longing of Lone Wolves (Fae Guardians #1) by Lana Pecherczyk. | Punderworld, Volume 1 (Punderworld #1) by Linda Šejić.

A King so Cold (Royals #1) by Ella Fields | With the Fire on High by Elizabeth Acevedo | The Ones Who Got Away (The Ones Who Got Away #1) by Roni Loren. | The Surprising Power of a Good Dumpling by Wai Chim. 

Unhinged (Necessary Evils #1) by Onley James | House of Salt and Sorrows by Erin A. Craig. 

And there we go. Those are just some of the titles that caught my eye. Have you read any of these? What did you think? Are you planning on reading any of these? What books made it to your list? Let’s Chat!

    Ooh, great picks! The Surprising Power of a Good Dumpling is such a great title. It’s still on my TBR but I can’t wait to read it. Punderworld is such a great comic series—I’m probably very behind by now since it’s been a hot minute since I’ve read it but I loved it when I discovered it a while back! I also *love* With the Fire On High! Such a good title. Fun list!

    They are all quite eye catching in their own way. There is nothing like a good cover!

    Have a great week!

    Great pivot! 😀 A good title and cover is what entices me to read a book. Some of these titles are very enticing! 😀

I have a love-hate relationship with this series. I have a love-hate relationship with this series. But I ended up really enjoying this one. It’s best friends to fake dating to-lovers. It’s always been you, bad-boy/good-girl, and I loved that. While Save Your Breath has quite a few tropes, it really leads itself to it, and it works. 

Aleks and Mia have known each other for years now. Since they were teenagers, that angst has been building up this whole time. And you can tell right from the get-go, it’s fantastic. I even wanted more of it, because I love pain. When Aleks went to live with Mia’s family as a teenager, sparks flew, but for many reasons, they both put their feelings aside. And well, now they are not only going to be fake-dating, but they might as well be engaged, too. 

I really enjoyed seeing how both Aleks and Mia both tried to hide how they were feeling throughout the whole ‘fake-dating’ situation, but anyone could see it. They know each other as no one else does. Aleks has a lot going on, and while I do think this was brushed over a little too much, Mia is his centre. Mia is a massive music star and is a female in the industry, so yeah, people don’t respect her. Obvsiouly because why couldn’t a female star be badass and write about the things that she has gone through? Aleks and Mia get each other, and that is very clear from the start; they are both just trying to squash everything. We get to see them slowly start to show how they feel, and well, one night it all explodes. 

Overall, I enjoyed this one a lot; it’s not my favourite of the series, but I had a great time reading it. I liked Aleks and Mia a lot as characeters and while I think the mental health aspect could have been explored a whole lot more, I can see why it wasn’t. The romance was slow and spicy, the angst was great, and the payoff for these two was what they needed.

Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I onl Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I only ended up reading 3 books in. 3 pretty fun books but one of my slowest readings months in a while. 

And I’m going to be honest here it’s because I’ve been constantly reading Heated Rivalry fanfics. 🤷‍♀️ I’m having the best time though. 

How was your reading in February? Any 5  star reads?
