Which ones did you not like and not finish?
ReplyDeleteEat, Pray, Love. Something about that book really bugged me but I know a lot of people liked it and like the author. To each his own.
DeleteI've only read a few of these and they weren't necessarily my favorites, but this a good list. I'll have to go search my read books and see how many have love in the title; you've got me curious.
ReplyDeleteSo, only 6 and 5 of them are YA!
DeleteI had a few more but I was tired of typing. I should have added TO ALL THE BOYS I'VE LOVED BEFORE on my TBR. It's been there for year, though, so it seems like I don't really want to read it.
DeleteFun take on this one! :)
ReplyDeleteWow. Interesting that you read so few books with the word love in the title.
ReplyDeleteSome of those YA/ MG books have the best titles!
ReplyDeleteLove Found sounds really good.
ReplyDeleteHere is our Top Ten Tuesday.
It's interesting to realize just how many books reference love in their titles. Wow!
ReplyDeleteMy TTT .
Nice lists, Anne!
ReplyDeleteLots of books are about love in some way or another, so I guess it makes sense that there are tons of books with "love" in the title.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT!
You found a ton of titles with "love" in them. Awesome!
ReplyDeleteThis seems to be a popular topic this week. LOVE all your different choices! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've read any of these, but I LOVE what you did here.
ReplyDeleteSo many great picks! I am definitely taking notes on some of the novels I've not heard of. Swoon.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great list! I love the concept and now want to go through the books I've read, too :) (though Blogger's search tool stinks).
ReplyDeleteI see lots of books I've enjoyed and more that I still want to read. Of course, I am curious about which ones you didn't like and/or didn't finish!
Of those you listed, I enjoyed Eat, Pray, Love and "loved" The History of Love, and want to read Geek Love.
Thanks for sharing -

Book By Book
I didn't like Wesley the Owl, Love and Leftovers, The Statistical Possibility..., Love is the Drug.
DeleteI didn't finish Eat, Pray, Love.
I sorted on my books on goodreads for "love". Of course some books aren't on the list because I read them before I added all books to that list.
