Top Ten Tuesday: One-Word Reviews

Posted November 3, 2026 by Nicky in General / 0 Comments

This week’s Top Ten Tuesday prompt is a fun one: “One-Word Reviews for the Last Ten Books I Read”. Let’s see if I can keep it that succinct! It won’t be quite the last ten books I read exactly because I’m writing this a couple of days in advance…

Cover of Devil Inside by Clay McLeod Chapman Cover of Paper Girls vol 1 by Brian K. Vaughan Cover of Trail of Lightning by Rebecca Roanhorse Cover of The Nightmare Before Kissmas by Sara Raasch Cover of Startup Hell by Caitlin Rozakis

  1. Devil Inside, by Clay McLeod Chapman. “Transgressive.”
  2. Paper Girls, vol 1, by Brian K. Vaughan et al. “Confusing.”
  3. Trail of Lightning, by Rebecca Roanhorse. “Electrifying.” (Yes, I am pleased with myself, why do you ask?)
  4. The Nightmare Before Christmas, by Sara Raasch. “Cute.”
  5. Startup Hell, by Caitlin Rozakis. “Familiar.”
  6. The Bishop of Durham Attempts to Surrender the City, by Susanna Clarke. “Short.”
  7. Wearing the Lion, by John Wiswell. “Infuriating.”
  8. Kakegurui, vol 1, by Homura Kawamoto. “Oversexed.”
  9. Domnall and the Borrowed Child, by Sylvia Spruck Wrigley. “Inconclusive.”
  10. The Airless Year, by Valentine Barker, Adam P. Knave, & Frank Cvetkovic. “Stifling.”
