Welcome to another TTT! This week’s topic, Book Titles That Would Make Great Song Titles (submitted by Deanna @ A Novel Glimpse), is the companion to a topic we did in April, Book Titles That Would Make Awesome Band Names. This was a really fun topic!
1. Paradise Cove by Jenny Holiday
This sounds like something Weezer would sing.
2. Neanderthal Seeks Human by Penny Reid
I can hear the kind of song I’m thinking of in my head, but I can’t find the words to describe it!
3. You Deserve Each Other by Sarah Hogle
This song SCREAMS break-up song to me, kind of like Before He Cheats by Carrie Underwood.
4. Just Say When by Jill Shalvis
This sounds like a Snow Patrol love song to me.
5. One Summer In Santorini by Sandy Barker
I’m thinking of a New Age, piano or other instrumental piece.
6. The Girl He Used to Know by Tracey Garvis-Graves
Again, I can’t explain it. Maybe another ballad-type song? Adele sound sing a song with this title, I think.
7. Starry Eyes by Jenn Bennett
This is totally a man singing to a woman he adores.
8. This Time Next Year by Allison Kent
Another love song! I love love songs.
9. P.S. I Like You by Kasie West
Totally a cute pop song.
10. Maybe This Christmas by Sarah Morgan
I had to throw in a Christmas song because have you met me?
What books do you think would make good song titles?
So fun that you included artists for who might be able to pull these off. Love that. :)
Neanderthal Seeks Human actually sounds like my kind of song!
I love your choices! I could totally hear those songs.
I really think someone should record an album of your choices!
Great list, I really like the Neanderthal one and Maybe This Christmas sounds like it’d make the cutest Christmas song!
Ooh nice picks! These would make great song titles!
Here’s my Tuesday Post
Have a GREAT day!

You Deserve Each Other sounds like an awesome breakup song.
My post.
This Time Next Year was a great play by Neil Simon and a wonderful movie with Alan Alda. Johnny Mathis sang the theme song. https://pmprescott.blogspot.com/2020/11/ttt-111020.html
I have a suggestion for TTT. Books that you’d most like to see on the big screen (film).
Brilliant idea. I could have found at least a hundred books for this topic.
Your list is also totally Interesting There is a song called “Somebody That I Used to Know” by Gotye featuring Kimbra, had to think about that when seeing your #6. Now I have that song in my mind and I love it. 😊
This was a fun topic, but I totally blanked on it. You did a great job! Fun song ideas :)
Happy TTT!

You made it seem so easy, looking for book titles that would make great songs! I had a difficult time with this, and ended up taking the easy way out: book titles with “songs”. :O Happy TTT
Oh, I like maybe this Christmas!
One Summer in Santorini sounds like a movie theme sung by Frank Sinatra! Great work!
I love Before He Cheats so I’d definitely give You Deserve Each Other a listen!
“Just Say When” makes me think of “Say When” by The Fray!
