#TopTenTuesday Anyone Home? Book Titles That Are Addresses #TuesdayBookBlog

Top Ten TuesdayTop Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created by The Broke and the Bookish and now hosted by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl.

The rules are simple:

  • Each Tuesday, Jana assigns a new topic. Create your own Top Ten list that fits that topic – putting your unique spin on it if you want.
  • Everyone is welcome to join but please link back to That Artsy Reader Girl in your own Top Ten Tuesday post.
  • Add your name to the Linky widget on that day’s post so that everyone can check out other bloggers’ lists.
  • Or if you don’t have a blog, just post your answers as a comment.

This week’s topic is a freebie so we’re invited to come up with our own topic.  Inspired by a book title I saw on social media, here’s a list of books whose titles are addresses (of varying precision).  Links from the titles will take you to the book description on Goodreads.

The Last House on Needless Street by Catriona Ward
