Top Ten Frequently Used Words In Book Titles on my Shelves
This week you were supposed to pick a genre or a reading age group and find common words used in whatever you picked, but I thought it would be more interesting for me to look at what is on my shelves and find what words I am apparently attracted to. This list probably isn’t the most accurate as I found it hard to actually the words that appear more than once then keep track of which ones I have already counted. I have also counted plurals and singulars in the same group, for example, shadow and shadows have been mashed together. Lets get started after my large disclaimer~
1. Heart – Takes the winning place appearing on my shelves a total of 8 times.
2. Fire – Liking fantasy I think really helped out here with a total of 7 times.
3. Glass – 7 times. Series of books helped out a little here.
4. City – 7 times. Cassandra Clare is pretty much solely responsible for this word appearing so high on the list.
5. King – 6 times. Again, fantasy.
6. Queen – 6 times. Gotta be equal. I will be honest and a say that my multiple copies of Red Queen helped a little.
7. Shadows – 6 times.
8. Study – 5 times. Maria V. Snyder and her Study series making a strong appearance. It is literally every single one haha.
9. Storm – 4 times.
10. Court – 4 times. Sarah J. Maas pretty much holds this place.
What words are you attracted to when picking out books? I chose to leave out my manga because you can have literally 22 things with the same name and thought it would be pointless. I also didn’t use any words that were not a serious part of the title like ‘the.’
Be sure to share your lists!
