Most readers will acknowledge that some words reappear time and time again in titles. Often these words are associated with a particular genre. Case in point: “The girl on the train” and “Gone girl” spawned countless thriller titles with the word ‘girl’ in the title.
My pick for Wednesday’s Word this week is ‘GUEST‘. In this post I’ve selected 24 novels with the word ‘GUEST’ in the title as a way of sharing my book love.
These titles cover several genres – with thrillers being the most prevalent genre in this selection.
7 were written by men – 17 were written by men

I have actually read 9 books with ‘Guest” in the title. They are not all on your list. The ones on your list that I have read are: The Unwelcome Guest by Amanda Robson (4*), An Unwanted Guest by Shari Lapena (4*), The Guest List by Lucy Foley (5*), The Last House Guest by Megan Miranda (5*), The Overnight Guest by Heather Gudenkauf (5*), and The Guest Room by Rona Halsall (3). I have 3 more on my TBR. I do like all the various covers.

This post made me curious so I went and checked my Goodreads list. Would you believe I do not have ANY books with the word “guest” in the title?!
