Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish and now hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl. For the rules see her blog.
The topic this week is Book Fitles Featuring Ordinal Numbers. These are all books I’ve read linked to my reviews. I had no idea I’d read so many books with the word ‘second’ in the title.
The Hand That First Held Mine by Maggie O’Farrell
The Second Cut by Louise Welsh
Second Place by Rachel Cusk
Second Sight of Zachery Cloudesley by Sean Lusk
The Second Sleep by Robert Harris
Third Girl by Agatha Christie
The Sixth Lie by Sarah Ward
The Sixth Lamentation by William Brodrick
The Seventh Son by Sebastian Faulks
Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare
BooksPlease 
I love the cover of Lusk’s book.
Thanks for sharing your #TTT

I found lots of First and Second, but the others were hard to find. I chose to list only books I’ve read and liked.

Such great choices here, Margaret! Shakespeare, Christie, Broderick… And I was delighted to see Sarah Ward’s work here, too. She’s got such talent. Very clever of you!

The Second Sleep and Third Girl are both on my list this week as well. I had hoped to find books from first to tenth, but that was too difficult!

Third Girl has been a popular choice today. It feels like I need to grab it off my shelf and give it a read now.
