Give a Book Tag
Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. Today I’m doing another book tag, the Give a Book Tag. I found out about this tag from Aster Marie @ Happy Bookish After, who did it a while ago, and immediately liked the concept of it. The tag was originally created by Katherine Zofrea on YouTube. While the giving season is usually thought of as the holidays, it’s never bad to be in the habit of giving. Let’s get into it! Give a book to make someone smile The House in the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune will fill your heart with a warm and fuzzy feeling. It’s about Linus, who…

Chinese New Year Book Tag
Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. As some of you know, the Chinese/Lunar New Year began on Sunday. Lunar New Year is one of the most important celebrations of the year for many Asian countries. It usually begins on a new moon in January or February, and the festivities last 15 days, up until the first full moon of the lunar calendar. The zodiac cycle for Lunar New Year is different than that of Western culture. In Asian countries, there is a twelve-year cycle of zodiac animals. Your zodiac animal depends on the year you were born. For 2023, it will be the Year of the Rabbit. Previous…

Bookish Smash or Pass Tag
Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. I haven’t done a tag in a while, so I thought it would be a good time to do one. This is the Bookish Smash or Pass Tag! It was created by Becky @ Becky’s Book Blog and I was tagged by Jan @ Inkspun Tales. Thank you, Jan! Bookish Tropes SMASH – Only for tropes I like. And they have to be written well! Some my favorite tropes that will immediately get me interested in a book are found family, enemies-to-lovers, friends-to-lovers, and morally grey characters. Alternating POV SMASH – If they’re written well. I’ve read some books where the alternating…

The Me & Music Tag
Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. Today I am doing a tag, but not one that’s book-related. It’s all about music! I saw Abby @ Beyond the Read do this and it looked way too fun to pass up the chance of doing it as well. I’m including a link to the music video (or lyric video) for each song. Rules: “8 Letters” by Why Don’t We If all it is is eight lettersWhy is it so hard to say?If all it is is eight lettersWhy am I in my own way? I love the message in this song. I think it’s something so many people can relate…

The “How Well Do I Know my Books?” Tag
Yes, this is another tag that I was not tagged for. I’m known to do that. A lot. But this one looked like way too much fun for me to not do it. This tag took me a long time to do, which is why I didn’t get a post out on Friday. But I was able to finish it yesterday. I found out about this from Amber @ The Literary Phoenix, who did it recently. It was originally created by Jesse the Reader. This tag is a bit complicated to explain, but I’ll try my best. There are 28 questions and each one has to be answered with a…

The Racing to Read Book Tag
Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. It’s been a little while since I’ve done a tag I was actually tagged for, not just one I did because it looked fun. Today I am doing the Racing to Read Book Tag. Thank you to Riddhi @ Whispering Stories for tagging me! This tag was originally created and done in 2020 for a readathon. It was created by Ariel Bissett and Raeleen Lamay. You can also find them on their podcast: Books Unbound. Warm-Up: a book that stretches your mind A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder (AGGGTM #1) by Holly Jackson My mind was definitely stretched while reading this book.…

2022 Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag
It is that time of the year again! How? I do not know. Can someone please explain to me how the passage of time is so weird? I am back with a book blogging community staple: the Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag. I did this last year and had a lot of fun with it. There’s a few variations of this tag out there, with a bunch of prompts, so I normally go with the ones that I have answers to. General Books read: 32Reading goal: 32/60Average rating: 4.2Most-read genre: Fantasy I am ahead on my reading goal! Just barely. Last year, I was severely behind, but I’m doing pretty…

The Marvel Avengers Book Tag
I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this before, but I am a huge Marvel fan. I watched all the movies during quarantine (minus two of them which I still need to see and one that I didn’t watch because people say it’s bad) and have since become obsessed with Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. So, when I found this tag, of course I wanted to do it! I don’t remember who I found it from and I haven’t been able to find the creator, but credit to whomever it is. Let’s get into it! *All GIFs link back to their sources. Iron Man: a book that made you laugh out loud All’s…

The Eximius Blogger Award
Hey, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. I am very, very excited because the role of Percy Jackson has officially been cast for the TV show! I was so, so happy when Rick Riordan announced this. And the kid is adorable! I could totally imagine him as Percy. I can’t wait for the casting of the other main characters. No matter how old I am when the show comes out, I am going to watch it. PJO was a major part of my childhood and I am very happy that it’s getting the film adaptation it deserves. Today I will be doing The Eximius Blogger Award, which was created…
