Tuesday Tagline #163

Glass Sword (Red Queen, #2)

Kneel Or Bleed   

Okay then!!      

  
 Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. Each week a new Top Ten list will be posted. Everyone is welcome to join. Link back so everyone can check out other bloggers' lists. It's a fun way to get to know fellow bloggers.

This week is Top Ten Books I'd Give Different Titles To. Another title post, although I think this one's a little tougher than last week's- at least for me.    

It's Been A Long, Long Autumn 

Is winter EVER coming???    

The Winds of Winter (A Song of Ice and Fire, #6)

Yet Another Clone Book 

Although I did like this one 

Brave New Girl (Brave New Girl, #1)

Number One DNF 

Okay maybe that's harsh, but this one was a big disappointment. I was expecting a book with a lot of heart, and yeah maybe some Chinese restaurant goodness too, but this was kind of depressing. 

Number One Chinese Restaurant

Need More Hippos

Seriously- too much talking, not enough hippos

River of Teeth (River of Teeth #1)

  1. I struggled with this one too, so I kind of piggy backed off your idea of how to rename books. Seemed easier than trying to think of a "better" name for the books.

  3. I usually like titles so I couldn't think of any examples hence I changed up the assignment and listed books we know which almost had different titles. My TTT

  10. Hahaha I love this post, Greg! You had me cracking up with all these titles 🤣Need More Hippos... Number One DNF... Bahahaha! My post-holiday brain is so sun-dazed that I couldn't even think of one title change for this week's prompt, so I did a really easy alternative lol

  11. Need more hippos - I love it! I wanted to read that series and then when I learned there weren't as many hippos as I was anticipating I scratched it! As you know, I did this topic last week because I messed up but I agree, it was pretty hard.

  12. Haha, great choices, this was definitely a difficult prompt!

  20. Haha your title Number One DNF made me laugh... although I don't think it would help sell books.

  23. Need More Hippos was my favorite! :D

    ReplyDelete
  24. Oh, no! Number One DNF. Definitely not a good sign for that book.

    ReplyDelete
  25. It's Been a Long, Long Autumn- sad but true, lol! What really gets me about no Winds of Winter any time soon is GRRM's meh attitude about it. When/if it ever gets published, he'll still get my money, but begrudgingly lol.

    ReplyDelete
  26. They were all fun, especially "Need More Hippos" 😂. I suppose there were funny hippo interludes in that one...amidst a river of blah (that could be another alternate title, I would assume? LOL).

    ReplyDelete
  27. Hahahaha, these are great! Although, doesn't every book need more hippos? 😂

    ReplyDelete
  28. It WAS hard! I took an easier spin on my TTT!

    ReplyDelete
  29. Not gonna lie, I'm totally laughing at some of these alternative titles. Love that titles for Winds of Winter because is that book ever coming? And can Need More Hippos please be a book title? I'd read that book in a heartbeat.

  30. The Red Queen Series has such beautiful and simplistic covers! I feel the pain of George R. R. Martin fans! I have a quite a few series that have been hanging in there for 8+ years at this point waiting for a sequel of some kind. The worst part is when the author simply disappears from social media never to be heard from again

  31. Kneel or Bleed made me laugh! I've only read the first book in the series, but it's pretty accurate. I really loved your spin on this!

  32. These are awesome! I actually laughed out loud at your Winds of Winter title 😂😂

    ReplyDelete
  33. Bwhahah I love these! Especially Need More Hippos because honestly it DOES need more hippos. Don't advertise as a hippo book unless you have ALL the damn hippos!
