Top Ten Tuesday is a fun weekly meme, hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. Everyone is welcome to join in the fun.
This week is all about the seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, seasons, and years in the titles of books. Here are twenty (some of which are a bit more tangential) titles arranged in increasing order of time unit.

I just put every word I could think of to do with a unit of time into my blog’s internal media search bar and saw what came up!

So many books, I struggled with 10 but also included The Fifth Season. Here’s mine: https://susanlynknits.com/2022/06/07/top-ten-tuesday-books-with-a-unit-of-time-in-the-title/

I would have struggled if “day” wasn’t so common in SFF titles!

TTT posts have become a lot easier since I discovered that you can search though the media stored on your website – I can let the search function do the work rather than my brain!

Great impressive list. I can’t believe you had 20 books for this week’s prompt. I also listed The Bone Season and The Year of the Reaper 🙂

I was stuck on not-quite 20 for a while, hence a few are a bit tenuous!

Oh Everyday Sexism, I never would have thought of that one. I keep meaning to read it but haven’t been in a non-fiction mood.

That one, admittedly, was one of the “I need a few more to round up to a multiple of 10 – what contains day but could be argued as not a unit of time?” entries!
