Thank you so much. That’ll give me inspiration to read more, I set my first ever reading goal after a long period of not really reading. 15 books by the end of the year!

You’ve got this!

Thank you so much!!!

Starfish, Finna, Lore, Verity, Grown, Caraval (+ Legendary + Finale), Loveless, Watchmen, Squad

Middlesex is a must

This is cool! In the last year I only read a few… Counterfeit, Nudge, Majesty, Rivals, Deconstructed, Effortless, Less, Beartown. What an interesting idea.

Education, tangerine, hoot, roots, severance, Matilda, wonder, dune

Circe

Hench is an interesting take on superheroes Nomadland was fantastic nonfiction. I still think about it sometimes. Devolution by Max Brooks is great, especially on audiobook N0S4A2 was fun Becoming by Michelle Obama was so good Bearskin by James Laughlin was interesting

Thanks for the Nomadland rec. I’ve been contemplated laying. NOS4A2 was definitely fun.

I just got another one word title from the Princeton University Press sale. The sale is over but they may have another before the next season of releases. https://press.princeton.edu/books/hardcover/9780691138206/swindled

Crave, crush, covet, and charm all by Tracy Wolff

Allergic is a middle grade graphic novel if you need a palette cleanser Spare by Prince Harry was interesting Gail Carriger’s Parasol Protectorate is all 1 word but it’s paranormal steampunk with a dash of romance. It’s a niche Horseman by Christina Henry is a horror sequel to Sleepy Hollow Jackal by Erin Abrams was quite good Hide by Kiersten White was creepy fun

I found Metropolis by B. A. Shapiro when an indie near me had a sidewalk sale

Blink

I’d recommend: Radiance by Catherynne M Valente Embassytown by China Mieville Bloom by Wil McCarthy REAMDE by Neal Stephenson

Don’t forget Cryptonomicon by Neal Stephenson also

Or Seveneves, for that matter. I’ve heard Anathem is amazing too. Man loves a single word title almost as much as he loves a digression!

I scrolled through all books I had read in the last five or six years. None of these suggestions have value judgements attached, but all should fit your parameters! The below list skews heavy sci fi and fantasy with lots of memoir. This is very fun constraint! * Eragon (whole series) - Christopher Paolini * Amsterdam by Ian McEwan * Horrorstor by Grady Hendrix * Binti by Nnedi Okorafor * Pure by Julianna Baggott * Kraken by China Mieville * Burn by Patrick Ness * Furia by Yamile Saied Mendez * Piranesi by Susanna Clarke * Mort by Terry Pratchett * Pet by Awaeke Emezi * East by Edith Pattou * Exhalation by Ted Chiang * Sadie by Courtney Summers * Severance by Ling Ma * Revenge by Yoko Ogawa * Wool by Hugh Howey * Pachinko by Min Jin Lee * Sabriel (and series) by Garth Nix * Sweetbitter by Stephanie Garber * Barkskins by Annie Proulx * Molokai by Alan Brennart * Kindred by Octavia Butler * Arcadia by Lauren Groff * Uprooted by Naomi Novik * 1Q84 by Haruki Murakami * Brooklyn by Colm Toibin * Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell * Hiroshima by John Hershey (nonfiction) * Cleopatra by Stacey Schiff (nonfiction) * Craft by Glenn Adamson (nonfiction) * Jackpot by Michael Mechanic (nonfiction) * Nomadland by Jessica Bruder (nonfiction) * Cod by Simon Winchester (nonfiction) * Heartland by Sarah Smarsh (nonfiction) * Maid by Stephanie Land (nonfiction) * Hunger by Roxane Gay (nonfiction) * Columbine by Dave Cullen (nonfiction) * Evicted by Matthew Desmond

Omg I LOVED the sabriel series!!!! ❤️❤️

MVP right here.

Having a long list helps, but thank you! This comment brightened my day

Oathbringer Dawnshard Steelheart Firefight Calamity Sunreach ReDawn Evershore Skyward Starsight Cytonic Elantris Mitosis To name a few you could add to your list.

Wonder. It is written for a younger audience but it’s still extremely good and I read about once a year usually

Serotonin, Michel Houellebecq

What app is this?

TBR - Bookshelf. I got excited about it, but unfortunately it's only for iOS.

Love this idea! Since 'the' and 'a' don't count: * The Plot - Jean Hanff Korelitz

Cool. Lol.

Quiet by Susan Cain Bittersweet by Susan Cain Libertie by Kaitlyn Greenidge Later by Stephen King Joyland by Stephen King Hester by Laurie Lico Albanese Afterparties by Anthony Veasna So

- Misery by Stephen King - Stardust by Neil Gaiman - Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman - The Illuminae Files by Amie Kaufman/Jay Kristoff (each in the trilogy is one word, all quick and fun reads) - Watchmen by Alan Moore - Room by Emma Donoghue - Shakespeare plays! Lots have one name titles - Hamlet, Othello, Macbeth - The Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini - Beloved by Toni Morrison I think this is a great idea!

Dune!!!!!!

What a fantastic approach to the challenge! I can’t wait to see your full list.

Mary Roach has a few titles and she’s a fantastic and funny read. Stiff, Grunt, Bonk, Gulp, Spook, Fuzz. Stiff is her most popular for a reason (also don’t worry only one of those titles is about sex)

Dune - Frank Herbert

Foe by Iain Reid!

Allegedly by Tiffany D Jackson 1984 by George Orwell Heavy by Kiese Laymon Dietland by Sarai Walker Educated by Tara Westover Recursion by Blake Crouch Edited: Formatting

Upgrade by Blake Crouch too.

Haven’t gotten to that one just yet, looking forward to it though.

Shogun

All the books in Marissa Meyer’s The Lunar Chronicles is one-word titles; Cinder, Scarlet, Cress and Winter

Bunny by Mona Awad

Room by Emma Donahue (idk if I spelled that right)

Confessions by Augustine, Roots by Alex Haley, many James Michener books.

Warbreaker - Brandon Sanderson; Mistborn - Brandon Sanderson; Misery - Stephen King

circe - madeleine miller | lapvona - ottessa moshfegh

came here to comment _Circe_ as well!

Circe is already on the list, been meaning to read it for years!

aye ! yeah it’s definitely the first one that came to mind when i saw this !

Stiff by Mary Roach

Night by Ellie Wiesel

Which app so this?

Emma by Jane Austen

Do books with subtitles count?

I recommend Trust!

I'd recommend Wave by Sonali Deraniyagala!

Such a cool idea! Would be fun to read the alphabet haha

This is really cool!!! Keeping it interesting

This is super creative!! I’m reading Vladimir right now which coincidentally fits your theme 😁

Gilead by Marilyne Robinson

Dune. Choke.

So fun! Can I contribute some reccs? - Beartown by Frederick Backman (technically the first in a series but works as a standalone) - Becoming by Michelle Obama - Pachinko by Min Jin Lee - Homegoing by Ya Gyasi Also, I haven’t ready it yet but I have Carrie by Stephen king on my TBR & since you’ve read It I’m going to throw that one out there as well. Good luck! ETA: my current read is Godkiller by Hannah Kaner which works nicely!

Loved Pachinko and Homegoing! I recommend Yaa Gyasi to everyone.

This is such an awesome take on reading challenges. Here are some of my favorite one-word title books - Kindred by Octavia Butler Coma by Robin Cook Heard really nice reviews from friends about Babel by R.F Kuang. Happy reading, fren <3

If you haven’t already read the Divergent series then you could knock out 3 books unless you are counting series as one book, other than that I recently picked up Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk and absolutely loved Horseman by Christina Henry

That’s a great idea, I loved the divergent movies

Adding onto this after glancing at my bookshelves: The Scythe Series includes 4 books (Scythe, Thunderhead, The Toll, and Gleanings) A few Stephen King books also include 1 word, Examples: Carrie, Cujo, Later, Joyland, etc. Recently picked up Mary by Nat Cassidy Manhunt by Gretchen Felker-Martin Ring by Koji Suzuki Edit: Woom by Duncan Ralston is really good but also pretty disgusting, short read as well at 129 pages

You should read educated

For some variety, check out Shrill (Lindy West), Nature (R.W. Emerson), Haven (Emma Donoghue), Mamo (Sas Milledge), Broken (Jenny Lawson), Mayflies (Andrew O'Hagan), Rodham (Curtis Sittenfeld), Eligible (Curtis Sittenfeld), Vida (Patricia Engel), Grass (Kerem Suk Gendry-Kim), Crudo (Olivia Laing), and Sourdough (Robin Sloan).

Highly recommend adding Piranesi to your list!

Ooo thank you, I actually have that book somewhere and just haven’t read it

i really like this interface, may i know which app is this?

It’s called TBR - bookshelf. It doesn’t quite have the community of Goodreads but in my opinion, the reviews are far more helpful

oh no, it's not for android :(((

got it, its TBR!

Horse by Geraldine Brooks

I just picked up {Sourdough} from the library

That was so good! Weird but in a good way

Dune? Shogun? 1984? Imajica? If you’re looking for recommendations, I’d recommend those. That’s pretty cool idea though, one word titles. Does the word “the “ count? Like The Stand? Or The Road?

I decided that ‘the’ or ‘a doesn’t count. The main reason being I want to read Nick Cutter’s ‘The Deep’ this year! Thanks for the recommendations!

Keep us posted yeah? On the books you’re reading.

Will do

I should’ve read this comment before I gave my recs lol I assumed “the” was a no go 🤣🤣

On my tbr: Moths/ Jane Hennigan VenCo Tampa Read ✅ : Circe Nightbitch Heartstopper series

Legend by Marie Yu. it’s on my tbr but i’ve heard good things. it’s a dystopian

Firestarter Eragon, Eldest, Brisingr, Inheritance Damsel Corsair Fangirl Steelheart, Firefight, Calamity Mistborn Neuromancer Origin, Inferno (Dan Brown) Hyperion

Dracula Frankenstein Lolita Beloved Dune Stoner Educated Rebecca 1984 Night Tons of Michael Crichton books (Prey, Sphere, Congo, etc) -------- Here's some of my favorite one word titled books

Hippie / Paulo Coelho

Lapvona by Ottessa Moshfegh Daphne by Josh Malerman Brotherhood by Mike Chen Upgrade by Blake Crouch Recursion by Blake Crouch Dune by Frank Herbert Sundial by Catriona Ward Yearbook by Seth Rogan Penpal by Dathan Auerbach Becoming by Michelle Obama Noir by Christopher Moore Choke by Chuck P Elantris by Brandon Sanderson Beartown by Fredrik Bachman Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi Munich by Robert Harris Timbuktu by Paul Auster The Night Trilogy by Elie Wiesel (Night, Dawn, and Day)

This is such a cool challenge! In case you need even more suggestions, some recent favorites of mine: - Piranesi by Susanna Clarke - Kindred by Octavia Butler - Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman If bylines don't count: - Cultish by Amanda Montell (a nonfiction book on how language has empowered cult-like organizations, haven't finished it yet but it's quite interesting so far)

Recursion by Blake Crouch

Fledgling, Saltation, and Neogenesis by Sharon Lee and Steve Miller

Origin by Jessica Khoury

What app is this

It’s called TBR - bookshelf

[удалено]

German book titles are always so ridiculous :D

I'm currently reading Becoming, by Michelle Obama, and loving it!

Ellen Hopkins books were fun as a teen (Crank, Glass, Burned, Impulse)

Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman Grendel by John Gardner Circe by Madeline Miller Mort by Terry Pratchett Tigana by Guy Gavriel Kay Palimpsest by Catherynne Valente Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer Embassytown by China Mieville Aaaand Hilda by Luke Pearson (heavily recommend the show as well)

Neil Gaiman: Coraline, Stardust, Neverwhere

Wow! Rock on! Personally I can't imagine restricting myself in that way (I'm a read-on-a-whim person), but I admire your discipline and commitment!

I’m just trying to get away having a goal that is solely around number of books read. I’m trying to slow down a little. I thought I would struggle to find books but my TBR list is packed with candidates. It will help to thin out the herd a little. I’m also not super obsessed with ‘only’ reading single word titles, I’m just interested to see how far I can get

App?

It’s TBR - bookshelf

Too bad it's only for iOS -- looks nice though

[TBR](https://apps.apple.com/in/app/tbr-bookshelf/id1614891654) Seems to be this one

Educated

This is super cool. Like other commenters, I also went through my read list to find one word titles. Sabriel by Garth Nix (the first of a trilogy that all have one word titles) Horns by Joe Hill Emma by Jane Austen

Stephen King: Firestarter, Carrie, Misery, Cell, Christine

Also Dreamcatcher - it's a long one and kind of polarizing, but I actually quite liked it! ((Can't recommend Misery enough though, it's one of my top Stephen King books that I've read so far!))

Desperation, Blaze, Joyland, Revival, Elevation, Later

It, Cujo

Kaikeyi and Swamplandia! could be good additions to your TBR list!

Here are some I loved. They are all over the place - young adult, literary, comics, fantasy. I skipped picture books Lolita / Nabokov Flamer / mike Curato Rook / Daniel O’Malley Unimpressed / Miranda Traccia Hatchet / Gary Paulsen Daydreamer / Ian McEwan Foster / Claire Keegan Jagganath / Karin Tidbeck

Just hearing the title “Lolita” stirs something in my heart. The narrator is a god awful person but the writing and the richness of the plot are just so captivating.

Lolita wasn’t for me. I read it and just thought everything about it was horrible. There wasn’t any redeeming traits

TBH I think it helped that I listened to the audiobook, narrated by Jeremy Irons. Such a fantastic narrator

What app is this?

[TBR](https://apps.apple.com/in/app/tbr-bookshelf/id1614891654) Seems to be this one ☝🏾

Thank you so much <3 Also why is it by Jordan Peterson? Lmao

Lol right?

Neat challenge! If you want suggestions : - Terry Pratchett has a few 1-word titles : Jingo, Hogfather, Mort, probably more... - Em - Ru -Kukum -Kintu (really enjoyed this book!) -Siddhartha And if you read graphic novels : - Pyongyang, Shenzhen or Hostage - Boxers and Saints

Seconding Pratchett.

I just downloaded storygraph. How did you set this up?

This is an app called TBR - bookshelf

I don’t think this is StoryGraph. StoryGraph has three books in the logo and this one has four.

Oh good catch, thanks!

Robin Cook has almost exclusively single word titles.

Wool?

Read Wool last year. Loved it!

No series then?

The _Divergent_ trilogy (a personal fav of mine!)

Unless the series all had one word titles! The Abhorsen series by Garth Nix all have one word titles. Sabriel, Lirael, and Abhorsen. Edit: the Wool trilogy also has one word titles (Wool/Shift/Dust).

I read Wool last year (which is why I read sand this year) but will probably tick off the other Silo books this year.

Some single word titles on my TBR: Dracula Middlemarch Moby-Dick Dune Passing Killingly Commonwealth 1984 (does this count?) Slaughterhouse-Five Nightbitch Betty Hester Circe Emma Middlesex

I came to Say Nightbitch, Betty, Lapvona and Bunny

All of Mary Roaches are single word titles I think! And the best non fiction reads!
