"One" Word Titles!
Happy Tuesday! I say this every time we have this challenge - it's really hard! I was scanning my shelves, and other than a lot of hockey romances named for the hero, I hardly had any single word titles on my read-shelf. I thought about doing "The" plus a single word, but then I thought I would go literal. The following is a list of books I really enjoyed with the word "one" in the title.
- One Month of You by Suzanne Ewart
- One Last Gift by Emily Stone
- Nine Women, One Dress by Jane L. Rosen
- The One Hundred Years of Lenni and Margot by Marianne Cronin
- Everyone is Beautiful by Katherine Center
- One Italian Summer by Rebecca Serle
- One Night on the Island by Josie Silver
- Last One Home by Debbie Macomber
- It Happened One Summer by Tessa Bailey
- One Plus One by Jojo Moyes
Have you enjoyed any "one" books?

Ah, fun twist on the topic! You found some great ones that I really enjoyed, especially It Happened One Summer!
ReplyDeleteThat was such a great surprise for me. It was funny and swoony, but also touching
DeleteThat's funny you didn't have very many other than "hero" hockey romances. I had a ton! I love what you did here and used the word "one" instead.
ReplyDeleteI had to go back to 2019 to find 10 one word titles that were not a man's name.
DeleteI love seeing One Night on the Island. I enjoyed that one so much.
ReplyDeleteIt was SOOO good. I am thinking of that island right now (and smiling)
DeleteLark used this modification too. I've read and loved three on your list: One Plus One, It Happened One Summer and One Night on the Island. I want to read One Italian Summer. Great list, Sam!
ReplyDeleteOne Plus One is so underrated. I think it's my favorite by Moyes.
DeleteI keep seeing that Serle book and thinking that's a fun looking summer book.
ReplyDeleteIt's actually about a woman grieving her mother's death which I thought was done beautifully. It's been polarizing with readers because of a certain plot point, but I was ok with it.
DeleteI like how literal you went. :) There's actually a book called "One." I wanted to put it on my list, but I haven't read it yet. Hopefully I'll get to it this year.
ReplyDeleteI have not read a book called "One" either. I was trying to find it, but GR search is terrible.
DeleteEveryONE is beautiful hu? That's cheeky Sam! :-)
ReplyDeleteBut it's a really good book
DeleteSmart way to twist the topic! I had a hard time with this prompt, too. One-word titles just aren't my thing, apparently.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT (on a Thursday)!
I always feel like I see one word titles everywhere, just not on my shelf apparently
DeleteGreat twist, Sam. I love how you made this topic work for you. This is a great list of books as well. I have read and enjoyed 8 of these, so need to add the last two: Nine Women, One Dress and Everyone is Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWho know one word titles would be so hard to find on my shelf. *high five* for reading so many of the same books as well. The two you didn't read are from authors I have nothing but great success with. Rosen was such a happy find for me. I have adored all her books, and Center! She always dazzles me
DeleteI love your twist on this topic and that you have so many wonderful books on your list!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteGreat twist on the topic! I've read three and a few others are on my tbr. :)
ReplyDeleteWho knew one word titles were so rare on my read shelf
