I’m going to be honest, I’ve heard of The Chainsmokers, but I’m not a fan. Still, I’m going to do this tag because for one, it’s a book tag, and two, I was tagged by Maddie @ Polaroid Books. Even if I hadn’t been tagged I would’ve done it. Again, it’s a book tag.
Before I start I’m going to thank Katya at Kat Reads A lot and Maria at Little Livres for creating this tag for us bookish bloggers to do.
Now let’s begin!
Roses / a book series that you didn’t want to end
The Mortality Doctrine series by James Dashner. I was hooked on this series and read all three books right in a row. I was so upset with things that happened in the final book and that there aren’t anymore books to follow what happens with Michael and his friends in the VirtNet after they saved it. I mean, can’t there be another hacker who tries to take over the world?
Don’t Let Me Down / an upcoming book you have high expectations for
By Your Side by Kasie West. I’m personally excited for this one because the characters are stuck in the library for the weekend. As a library lover, that sounds pretty cool to me (well, minus having to live off of vending-machine food). It’s also the first release of this year that I’m interested in reading.
Inside Out / a book with a beautiful cover and a beautiful story
Isla and the Happily Ever After. I adore the cover of this book and the story is beautiful. To be fair, I also love the covers and stories of the previous companion books, Lola and the Boy Next Door and Anna and the French Kiss.
Until You Were Gone / a book you read when it wasn’t trending anymore
The Hunger Games books. I didn’t finish reading the series until after Mockingjay Part 2 had come out on DVD. It’s funny because I did actually want to read the books back when the first movie came out, but didn’t get around to it before I saw the movie. My friend had been in town, and it was the only day he was, so we saw it right when it hit theaters.
Closer / a book you wish you hadn’t read
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child… even though it was actually the script of the play in London. Still, I didn’t enjoy too much of the story. There were just some things of the plot that were kind of ridiculous. I can honestly say the only thing I truly enjoyed about the book was the character of Scorpius Malfoy.
Waterbed / a book you read that gave you so many feels
A Time For Dancing. This book hit me real hard at the time I read it because it was only two years after my mom had gotten her cancer removed, and the book is about two best friends and one of them is diagnosed with cancer. It hit me very close to home and at the end of the book I was crying so hard. That was probably the hardest I’ve ever cried over a book.
Kanye / an expensive book that you need right now
What They Don’t Teach You in Library School. It’s actually $52 for a new copy on Amazon, but I cheated and literally just bought a used copy of it. I want to get a head start before I actually start school for my Library Science degree (hehe).
#Selfie / a photogenic book
Anna and the French Kiss. I love taking photos of this book and could probably do so all the time.
Good Intentions / a book with good reviews and you think you’ll like too
The Irresistible Blueberry Bakeshop & Cafe. I’ve seen this pass by a few patrons in the library, so I’ve asked them how they liked it and they all say that they loved it. It also has pretty good reviews on Goodreads and Barnes & Noble, so I’m definitely putting this on my reading list for this year. The synopsis is interesting and after reading a sample, I think I’ll really like it.
New York City / a book you stayed up all night for, perhaps in tears
This was many moons ago, but Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. I mean, really, I stayed up for all the Harry Potter books, but I specifically remember this one when I got to the part of Snape killing Dumbledore in the Astronomy Tower. I started crying and remember pushing myself to read on through the tears.
Tag! You’re It!
I hope you all enjoy doing this tag as much as I did. Again, thanks Maddie for tagging me and I look forward to doing more bookish tags in the future. Maybe I’ll even start doing Book Tag videos! We’ll see.
I love The Mortality Doctrine series! I needed more of James Dashner after I read The Maze Runner series and I found his other series and fell in love. I have only read the first book, but I absolutely can not wait to read the next two. I am also excited for “By Your Side” because it looks so interesting. I enjoyed seeing your answers! :D
Oh my gosh, the other two books really pick up the story, and for me, The Game of Lives was a rollercoaster of emotions.
Thanks again for tagging me! I love doing book tags :)
I can’t wait to read the rest of the series! No problem! :)
Thanks for the tag! It will crop up soon on the blog! Really loved reading this post, I agree the Anna and the French Kiss series have some of the prettiest covers! x
THANKS FOR DOING THIS TAG!
BY YOUR SIDE!!! I NEEEED IT NOW! (P.S. I HAVEN’T READ A KASIE WEST BOOK. Oh wait – I did. I DNFed On The Fence oops) and ofc The Hunger Games! I was late too! I think I read it like 2 months before/after the Mockingjay pt. 1 was released! I totally added A Time For Dancing to my tbr! I think you’ll like Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson (it’s about family and an illness) I cried loads of tears because of that book!
Fair warning about A Time for Dancing, it’s a major tear-jerker! But it’s a good book! I’ll have to check out that Second Chance Summer book as well! Thanks! :)
Such a cool tag! I pretty much always end up loving Chainsmokers’ songs even though at first I think, well, finally, this song doesn’t sound like the one I am going to screaming at the top of my lungs at 3 in the morning ahaha FAIL.
Lovely picks! I actually haven’t read any of the books you’ve mentioned except for Harry Potter series. Ooops!
THIS IS SOOOOO INTERESTING!!! I want to do this but Ugh i hate that I haven’t read that many series!
