13 Reasons Why, Catch 22, Farenheit 451 come to mind off the top of my head. I just read Catch 22 and really enjoyed it.
I just read book called The Thirteenth Child which I picked up for reasons beyond numerical, but I didn’t like it. Too bad because I was very interested in the premise.
James Patterson's Women's Murder Club series are all numbered as well as Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum books. Both really great series. The Thirteenth Tale is another good one.
I read 99 Percent Mine by Sally Thorne. Not as good as her first book (The Hating Game) but it was a quick and fun read.
I picked up Population: 485 : Meeting Your Neighbors One Siren at a Time from a table in the lobby. It's not a very long book but I have renewed it twice. I'll finish it tonight but I don't want it to end. Michael Perry is a wonderful, intelligent and thoughtful writer. I would recommend this to ANYONE. It's a series of essays about his experiences in a small Wisconsin town as a volunteer fireman and an EMT. (The jacket says he worked on a ranch in Wyoming to put himself through nursing school). He writes about life and death in such a thoughtful way. My first 5 star book in quite a while!Since then more numbers :Ready Player One, [book:Ninety-Nine Glimpses of Princess Margaret 100 Days of Happiness, The 17th Suspect, The Mystery of Three Quarters, The Seven or Eight Deaths of Stella Fortuna, One Good Deed.and The Sixth Day Pick a number.... any number.
