Books, Taylor Swift, and other hyperfixations
I'm a sucker for religious humor. Would you believe I couldn't name all 12 disciples? The Rob Evans "Donut Man" song "We're Following Jesus" only covers 9 of the 12. To make this tag, I looked up a definitive list of the 12. Only there isn't one. Scholars disagree about who James really was. They… Continue reading Disciples Book Tag
I'm LOVING the weather change. The last few days have been foggy and freezing. Yesterday, I walked to improv class shivering. Today, I wore a CARDIGAN. Worth it. I nabbed this tag from The Awkward Book Blogger because it pleased me...and because I lost interest in my other fall-themed tag. Double prizes! Crunching Leaves The… Continue reading The Fall Time Cozy Book Tag
Oh, Bookstagram. You are way too pretty. I will never achieve the standards you've set. Cait made a beautiful blog post that she attributes to the Cake-Flavored Books hashtag on Instagram. I hate photos, but I love cake, so here I am to participate! I will be using Cait's extra cake-related questions because I loved… Continue reading #CakeFlavoredBooks
I feel weird telling authors what they SHOULD have done. I know I do it all the time. I do book tags almost daily. And I like this tag. A lot. That makes me a book expert. Surely I know what published authors should have done with their works better than they do. 1. Totally should’ve gotten a… Continue reading The Totally Should Have Book Tag
To Anthony @ Keep Reading Forward: I'm stoked you made another Halloween Creatures post! Once again, I pair Halloween creatures with books. Witch A magical character or book I READ SO MUCH FANTASY. THIS SHOULDN'T BE HARD. If I remember correctly, Rowan's mom was a legit witch. That MUST count. Werewolf The perfect… Continue reading Halloween Creatures 2.0 Book Tag
Some of my books are due soon, which will necessitate a trip to the local library four blocks down. It's a tiny place, smaller than the one I visited in Arlington, VA. I seem to always get there when the after-school club arrives; they hog the computers and scream at each other about flash games.… Continue reading The Library Lover’s Book Tag
You may have noticed my recent spate of book tags. It's all part of Comfort Month: instead of kicking myself for not working on more serious drafts, I'm talking about books. I've read and absorbed and copied a jillion tags this month and I keep looking for more. But the one I really wanted didn't… Continue reading Top Pot Doughnuts Book Tag
It...is not spring. My apartment does need a good clean, though. Two books I just finished mention incorporating a Sabbath into one's week, which means I have to reorder my chore schedule anyway. To cope, I just...haven't done chores...in quite some time. My bathtub is turning pink. Peter Scazzero said to start small. With that,… Continue reading Spring Cleaning Book Tag
Have I mentioned my Greek mythology obsession? No? Well, I have one. Well...had one. I might have replaced that particular interest with the Chinese zodiac, but I still like a good mythical retelling or historical reimagining. Props to Zuky for creating both this tag and the graphics I'm using. I love pairing books with other interests. I'd… Continue reading The Greek Gods Book Tag
Can't stop, won't stop. I'm not cool enough to use sassy hashtags on Twitter. I will GLADLY use them for books, though. Shout-outs to creator The Orangutan Librarian and to Book Hooked Nook for inspiration. #NOTALL COVER CHANGES A COVER CHANGE YOU LIKED The original cover for this classic is one of the worst… Continue reading #NotAll Book Tag
