Hello and a very warm welcome to damppebbles. It’s Tuesday which means it’s time for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday post. I’ve decided to take part in That Artsy Reader Girl’s Top Ten Tuesday meme to mix things up a little here at damppebbles. Add a little bit of variety to our bookish weeks.

The meme was originally created by The Broke and the Bookish but has lived with Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl since January 2018. It was created to encompass a love of books, of lists and to bring readers together. If you would also like to take part then you’re very welcome: the more, the merrier. Just make sure you link back to Jana’s post every week. If you don’t have a blog then no problem, just add your list to the comments below.

This week’s theme is a Non-bookish Freebie (the sky is the limit here. Make a top ten list on any topic of your choosing, bookish or not!). When I started the blog (nearly 10 years ago now) I made a promise to myself that all of my content would be book related. So sticking to that, today’s theme is going to be Books with a Number in the Title. I started to jot down a few ideas and I now have a page and a half of books! Who knew so many crime and mystery titles include a number?! (Meeeeee…. 😂)

I could have gone on for DAYS with this list! 😂 I only struggled with the number four. Everything else, I had multiple options for. And of course, not forgetting all those books with a number above ten in the title. Expect to see a second and possibly third instalment of this theme coming to damppebbles in the future!

Have you read any of these books? What’s your favourite book with a number in the title? Are you taking part in Top Ten Tuesday this week? Let me know in the comments.

So there we have it! If you fancy joining in next week then head on over to That Artsy Reader Girl’s blog to find out what the next topic is!
