Welcome to another TTT! This week’s topic is favorite words, but I chose to narrow it a little and share words I get excited to see in a book’s synopsis. Seeing these words immediately makes me perk up and get even more interested in reading the book. And if any of them are combined, it’s even better!
1. Christmas
2. Pirate
3. Pretend (as in pretend dating/marriage/engagement)
4. Atmospheric
5. Stranded
6. Blizzard/Snow
7. Sweet
8. Heist
9. Funny
10. Italy (or anything that indicates travel, really. I’m not picky.)
What’s your favorite word?
What words do you see in a book synopsis that make you want to read it?
I like your twist on this one! Some of mine would have to be, haunting, atmospheric, thrilling, twisty.
I like that! And I agree with those words too!
Have a great week.

I had no idea what direction to take with this one. I wish I had thought of doing it the way you did it as I ended up going in a different direction. I like books with travel as well, I also enjoy pretend dating/marriage :)
Ooh nice choices! Stranded would present many interesting kinds of stories! Both scary and romantic! Lol!
Here’s my Tuesday Post
Have a GREAT day!

What a great twist on the topic! I always love to see Christmas in a book blurb. Here’s my TTT: https://bonniereadsandwrites.com/2022/10/18/toptentuesday-favorite-words-or-phrases/
I like your last item because that is more or less what I did. My TTT this week is about my favourite names of places, locations that sound like a dream.
Fun–I forgot to do my post! Yes, forgot.
4, 5, and 6 are big ones for me, too. I love an atmospheric survival story!
Happy TTT!

Such a good twist! Christmas and Italy are two words I love to see as well!
Heist is a good one! And, oooo, atmospheric! Pirate could go either way for me, but “atmospheric pirate heist,” I would definitely look again!
I can’t believe Christmas and blizzard/snow didn’t make my list this week. Thanks for sharing such great words.
Nice take on the topic! It is about time to read Christmas themed books, so I’d be excited about that in a synopsis as well! Here is our Top Ten Tuesday. Thank you!
love your take on this theme!! Maybe this should be a theme by itself :) it has certainly got me thinking about words I like to see in a synopsis
