Top Ten Tuesday: Character Names

Happy Tuesday my bookish friends!! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend! Today's Top Ten Tuesday topic is character names in the title. I am going to tweak it just a little bit. Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and you can head over there to see what our other bookish friends are up to today!

Top Ten Books with Character names that I hope to read in 2022:

 
As an added bonus I either own these or my library has them so I will be working on my Mount TBR and Virtual TBR challenges 😀

 What did you do for this week? What is a book with a character name on you list? To see what other topics our bookish friends are doing this week click on the image below.

  6. I’ve only heard of A Man Called Ove and Dear Mr. Knightley. I haven’t read either of them yet. I just read Anxious People in January, so I might like Ove. Thanks for stopping by my blog.

    1. I have heard mixed things about Anxious People. If I enjoy A Man Called Ove I think I will give it a try as well.

  7. I read ANXIOUS PEOPLE for book club and enjoyed it, overall. The others in the club who've read Backman said they liked OVE better, so I'm going to give it a try at some point. I hope we both enjoy it!

    Happy TTT!

  10. A Man Called Ove is the best. I should have added it to my list. Knox, Loving Lovina and My Dear Miss Dupre are all on my TBR. Great list Cindy.

  11. I keep hearing good things about A Man Called Ove and have meant to try it. I read Britt-Marie Was Here, also by him, and it was five stars for me.

    1. I will be reading Jane by the Book, I have it noted for a reading challenge, if not this month, soon. If I enjoy Knox I will add the rest of the series to my TBR :)

  16. Dear Mr. Knightley is a fun read. I could kick myself for not remembering to put Ove on my list.

    1. I think that is one thing we all have in common today, we forgot some of the ones we think should have been on our list. Thanks for stopping by!

  20. I've been trying to find another blogger who used at least one of the names I did. No luck, so far, though I've read "A Man Called Ove" but I chose titles with just the characters' names.

    My TTT this week.

    1. I have not shared very many with others either. I love that we all thought differently on this. Thanks for stopping by, Marianne.

    2. Love stopping by. And I'm not really surprised we didn't find any that have the same as we do, after all, there are hundreds of names.

      Delete
    3. That's true. I saw some I had forgotten about and a lot from a wide variety of genres that I had never heard of.

    4. I know. I missed "Heidi", my first book ever. Well, the first I owned.

  21. I've seen a few of these making the rounds on TTT this week. I have read A Man Called Ove and I actually just need to read it again.

    Thanks for stopping earlier this week and so sorry for the late reply!

  22. I love all of Katherine Reay's books -- Dear Mr Knightley is fantastic! And A Man Called Ove was my first Fredrik Backman novel. Loved that one! Thanks for stopping by my TTT earlier!
