Books, Taylor Swift, and other hyperfixations
My coworker worships Rihanna. I just did a great Ariana Grande book tag, so I went looking for a Rihanna book tag in my coworker's honor. Wouldn't you know it, ONE EXISTS. Ana at Me Myself and Books made the tag. I am using her gifs becaaaaause. Where Have You Been A book you wish… Continue reading Rihanna Book Tag
A complaint regarding my relationship: I can quote the Star Wars franchise in its entirety. I commonly invoke the "I love you, I know" conversation in romantic moments. I snap, "That's not how the Force works!" or, "I'M SURE YOU ARE!" when irritated. My girlfriend lets these words waft past her as if they mean… Continue reading Star Wars Confession Post
I've drafted this post before at least twice. I keep trashing my drafts. I don't know why. TBR shame? Who knows. So, inspired by Xandra, Laura, Sahi, and Amy, I'm finally doing this tag. Oh snap, here's a link to the original at Jami Shelves! A book that you feel you need to read because everyone talks… Continue reading Books I Want to Read But DON’T Want to Read Tag
One thing I love about the blogosphere: the amount of creativity and number of shared interests in the community mean I don't have to make my own book tags. Case in point, Madame Writer created a Jane Austen Character book tag. And just in time - playing multiple rounds of Marrying Mr. Darcy every weekend put me… Continue reading Jane Austen Character Book Tag
The last Raven Cycle tag I found was one of those "pick a character" ones. (And I hate those.) This is a whole new SCENARIOS tag found on Paper Fury! IT'S DESTINY. I love this series and these characters and a reread is LONG overdue. Which REMINDS me that Claire still has my copy of Blue… Continue reading The Raven Cycle Book Tag
I DNF (book blogger for "did not finish") books all the time. Last month, I DNFed 9 books. Just this week, I DNFed 2. I'm able to do this thanks to a high school English teacher who said, "Life is too short to read books you don't like." She was right. Why might I DNF… Continue reading Reasons to DNF
IT'S THAT TIME AGAIN. Today's Top Ten Tuesday features my top ten auto-buy authors. Is this a rehash of my Lady Writer Supergroup? POSSIBLY. Maggie Stiefvater OB-VI-OUS-LY. Stiefvater gave me murder horses in The Scorpio Races. She gave me Ronan Lynch in The Raven Cycle. She gave me miracles in All the Crooked Saints. I will go… Continue reading Top Ten Tuesday: Auto-buy authors
You know how I made my Quintessential Summer Book Tag Midsommar-themed, as I am apparently obsessed with that movie? I decided that wasn't enough. WELCOME, FOLKS, TO THE MIDSOMMAR BOOK TAG. Everyone, do the tag! Come on, do it! It feels really nice! I will try to avoid spoilers. I'll try VERY hard. Oh, I… Continue reading Midsommar Book Tag [ORIGINAL]
Summer continues. The plot thickens. Over in Seattle, we have heat waves followed by heavy rains. It's a DOOZY. This tag has nothing to do with the movie Midsommar, which I saw last week and can't stop thinking about. It's almost midsummer, though, yeah? Close enough. Iced Drink A refreshing bookThis is your weekly… Continue reading The Quintessential Summer Book Tag
So many good tags this summer! I approve! SUMMER OF BOOK TAGS! Kristin shared her Book Bucket List recently. I don't like making plans, but this tag proposed fun plans instead of serious, financial plans. Into it. What book or series that intimidates you (because of length, density, or subject) would feel like an accomplishment… Continue reading Book Bucket List Tag
