Happy Tuesday! I’m linking up with That Artsy Reader Girl for Top Ten Tuesday & the topic this week is: “Book Titles with Numbers in Them.”
My current read fits the category.

Dorothy L. Sayers also wrote another “number mystery” that I haven’t read.

I always love Agatha Christies’ books.
And a Holmes, of course.

These are not quite as vintage, but all good.
What are some of your favorite “number” mysteries?
Of course there are all the Stephanie Plum fluffy mysteries.
I like how you focused on a specific genre.
I’ve only read a couple of the Stephanie Plum series and just didn’t like them very much.
Another Twelve Slays of Christmas. I had that one too. I wish a third one had come out this year!
I don’t know if I would have read it if it did. The main character was put through a bit too much for me for a cozy, if I remember right.
I like having numbers in mystery books.
There seem to be a lot of them too.
Twelve Angry Librarians looks fun!
It was a good one, but I wish the cat had had a bigger part.
They all look good you’ve got the older and newer ones as well. So nice.
I was going to try to go with all vintage ones, but this way was a bit easier.
Nice idea to have chosen mysteries only! I have a few, including The Sign of Four. My post is here: https://wordsandpeace.com/2019/10/01/top-ten-book-titles-with-numbers-in-them/
I was a little sad that by going with mysteries i couldn’t include some really good classics like The Three Musketeers.
