We’re back with another Top Ten Tuesday, a weekly meme hosted by Jana @ That Artsy Reader Girl.

This week’s topic is: Literary/Bookish Candles I’d Make (Pick a book and assign it a fragrance or fragrance combo that would make a nice candle.) (Submitted by Heather @ The Frozen Library) — but clearly I’m going rogue!
While today’s topic seems fun, it’s a little too fun for my work-drained brain right now, so I’m going rogue today and continuing my alphabet challenge! If I thought I had few “J” titles in my last post, I was shocked to learn that I had just as few “K” titles to choose from! Thankfully, I was able to find 10 that fit the “K”razy Good Reads cut—even if some of them start with an article! 😮💨
Check out the other letters of the alphabet: A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J






Kindling by Traci Chee — 5 stars
Killers of the Flower Moon by David Grann — 5 stars
The Knight and the Butcherbird by Alix E. Harrow — 5 stars
The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini — 5 stars
Kiss and Don’t Tell by Meghan Quinn — 5 stars






The Kinder Poison by Natalie Mae — 4.5 stars
The Kiss Quotient by Helen Hoang — 4 stars
Kind of Sort of Fine by Spencer Hall — 4 stars
King of Battle and Blood by Scarlett St. Clair — 4 stars
Kate in Waiting by Becky Albertalli — 4 stars

Have you read any of these books or are they on your TBR? What are some of your favourite books that start with the letter “K”?

Awesome list!

The Knight and the Butcherbird was a really good one. I hadn’t liked Starling House and this reinterested me in Harrow’s work.

I’m sorry to hear that you didn’t like Starling House but glad that you managed to enjoy Butcherbird! I love Harrow’s writing 🙂 Very atmospheric and immersive!

The topic does seem fun but way too specific, I don’t think I’d be able to come up with scent combinations 😅. I really want to read The Knight and the Butcherbird!

Yeah, I think it’d be fun to try when I’m feeling much more creatively inspired but that hasn’t been often lately! 🫣 I hope you love The Knight and the Butcherbird if you check it out! 😍

I’ve been wanting to re-read it for a while actually! I’m kind of tempted to do it soon maybe 🤭

I remember reading the Kite Runner and not enjoying it. But I couldn’t stop thinking about it while I was work. And would keep listening to it. By the end, I understood why I couldn’t stop. And gave it a solid 4 or 5 stars.

“K” titles seem fairly rare. Good job finding so many!
Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!

I was honestly surprised by that! I don’t know why I thought K (and also J) would be more common but now that I really think about it, I can see why they wouldn’t be,haha.

Rather than tell you which of these I’ve read I thought I’d let you guess this time 😂 there’s just one although three of rhe others are on my high priority TBR. Well ones more of a maybe I suppose as I already own a series and standalone by them so the third is an ‘if those go well’ thing 😂
