Hi and welcome back to another edition of Top 10 Tuesday! Originally created and hosted by The Broke & the Bookish, Top 10 Tuesday now resides with Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl. It has a different bookish or literature themed topic each week and this week we are talking:
Top 10 Books With Super Long Names (That I’ve Read Or Want To Read)
1. The Guernsey Literary & Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer & Annie Burrows.
One of my favourite books! I adore this. And do you know for ages, I never read it because I thought the title was so weird?! I didn’t read it until the movie came out and the Australian publisher sent me this copy with the film tie-in cover. I read it on a Sunday afternoon and the very next day, dragged my husband to see the movie and we both loved it too.
2. The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night Time by Mark Haddon
I read this so long ago now. Over a decade and I barely remember it but I did enjoy it at the time.
3. The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland In A Ship Of Her Own Making by Catherynne M. Valente
I haven’t read this but I’ve heard some really amazing things about it and it’s been on my Wishlist for a little while now.
4. Aristotle & Dante Discover The Secrets Of The Universe by Benjamin Alire Sáenz
Another one that I really want to read!
5. The Hundred Year Old Man Who Climbed Out Of The Window And Disappeared by Jonas Jonasson
My husband has read this and really loved it and I’ve heard lots of other good things too. It’s on my TBR shelf!
6. A Heartbreaking Work Of Staggering Genius by Dave Eggers
I’ve had this on my Wishlist since I read The Circle by Dave Eggers.
7. The Statistical Probability Of Love At First Sight by Jennifer E. Smith
Loved this book when I read it! It was quite a while ago now (2012 I think!) but I thought it was so cute. I wonder if it’d hold up on a re-read? I haven’t loved a lot of Smith’s other books, maybe this was just her one hit wonder for me.
8. The Sweetness At The Bottom Of The Pie by Alan Bradley
I’ve been curious about this series for a while! I’ve heard some good things.
9. Arkie’s Pilgrimmage To The Next Big Thing by Lisa Walker
This was a fun book about all the “big” things we have here in Australia – google it, we’re obsessed with building big things. The big pineapple, the big banana, the big merino. They’re everywhere!
10. The Strange And Beautiful Sorrows Of Ava Lavender by Leslye Walton
I love the title of this! The cover is pretty as well and it sounds interesting.
All The Books I Can Read 
Wow – those are some doozies! I also have 100 year old man in my list and seen the Circumnavigated Fairyland on multiple lists – I’ll have to check it out…..this was a fun theme and I’m looking forward to seeing other lists!

This was a fun theme, I had a lot of fun finding books for it! Thanks for stopping by
Ava Lavender. Yes. Why didn’t I think of that book? We have several matches on our lists. My long titled list of novels
I remember seeing a lot about that book when it came out but then I’d completely forgotten about it until this prompt
That’s a different cover for The Hundred Year Old Man. Great book. https://pmprescott.blogspot.com/2020/10/ttt-101320.html
I really do have to make an effort to squeeze in time to read it!
I’m seeing several titles that I’ve never heard of before today! Like the 100 Year Old Man one. I like this unique topic. Great job!
Hopefully you found a few that sound interesting 🙂
What a lovely post! I haven’t read them all, but 8 of these I have read or they are on my TBR list.
I can’t believe I forgot about The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time. Such a great read.
I also have Guernsey and the 100 year old man. Here’s the rest of my list: Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Book Titles
Thank you for popping by!
The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society has been a popular pick this week!
My post.
It’s so good – such a pure story that even though there’s a lot of traumatic stuff in there, you just feel so good after reading it.
I’d really like to read The Guernsey…Society some day. Here is our Top Ten Tuesday.
Oh please do! I’d push that book onto everyone if I could, haha. It’s just such a lovely story.
Our posts are almost identical, wow! I love The Statistical Probability.
Haha is it?! We must have good taste 😉 This has made me really want to reread The Statistical Probability! Going to have to dig it out from my shelf
I’ve read several Jonas Jonasson titles, definitely funny reads with long titles, Guernsey was a sweet read and I totally forgot The Curious Incident. Great post today
Here’s my list if you want to have a look https://readwithstefani.com/books-with-milelong-titles-on-my-tbr/ have a great day ahead!
I hear really good things about Jonasson, going to have to finally get around to reading him one day!
Oooh, I’ve never seen that cover for GUERNSEY. It’s pretty! I didn’t love the book like so many people have but I did like it.
Happy TTT!

It’s one of the prettier movie tie-in covers. Normally I’m not a huge fan of them but I do like this one.
We have some similarities on our list. Some differences too!
As per usual 😉
