A selection of fun batty book titles

shelf, books, library

Welcome to my web site containing Batty Book titles. They can be known as ‘Awful Authors’ and sometimes called ‘Books that were never written’. It’s an idea I’ve had for a few years now and with the lockdown in 2020 due to the Coronavirus, I thought now was a good time as any to take the plunge and build my own website.

I think Batty Book Titles are just as funny now as they were when I was a child. 

My personal favourite is – The Haunted House by Hugo First. 

Have a read through them and have a chuckle.

Please come back regularly as I will be updating the site as I think of more Batty Book titles.
