Here we are guys, my first book tag post for 2017! Though I was tagged in this when it was still 2016…we don’t care do we? No, we don’t. THANK YOU to Luci over at Irontallica666Blog for the tag!
The rules:
- use the original banner
- answer the questions
- use lots of book covers
- tag your friends!
What book are you currently reading?
Can you say OBSESSION? This girl is psychotic, and I love her oh so much.
For those of you have read this book, can we all just take a minute to bask in that WTF moment between Rowan and Aelin where Rowan says that cringe-worthy sentence? You know the one. It involves using the word moan and turning my wondrous YA story into a borderline disturbing erotic novel, where I feel like I have interrupted a moment that I REALLY don’t want to be interrupting.
Someboodddyyy say AWK-ward?
What’s the last book you finished?
Obviously.
Favorite book you read this year?
It has to be Hatred Day and Emotions. These were both SUPER original and interesting reads, and I was hooked on them.
What genre have you read most this year?
Fantasy books for sure! I have become a sucker for anything involving royal courts and sword play!
What genre have you read least this year?
I would have to say romance or horror.
What genres do you want to read more of?
2015 and 2016 have been years where I have REALLY branched out of my normal comfort zone in regards to genre of books. I am pushing myself to become open to anything at this point.
Except erotica. Just no.
How many books have you read this year and what is your goal?
I don’t even want to know the low amount of books that I read in 2016, twas a hard year indeed. I want to read 100 books in 2017, or more. The more the merrier! My goal is to stay focused and become a reading machine. Goodbye social life, I don’t need you anyways!
What is the last book you bought?
What book are you saving up for to buy?
*Sigh*…Childhood. (Insert dreamy and twinkling eyes)
How many books did you check out last library visit?
Last Library visit? I couldn’t even tell you the last time i was in an actual library.
What’s a book you can’t wait to read?
NUMBER 5! Let’s just keep them coming Sarah J. Maas, no need to ever stop the series.
Seriously. Write forever.
What’s a series you’d recommend to everyone?
I read A Series of Unfortunate Events years and YEARS ago, and to my dismay….*sigh*…I can barely even say it…I LOST THEM. Ugh…woe is me.
Who’s an author you’re hoping writes more?
This book….always this book. If Jay Asher could just write more stories like this, he would be probably my favorite writer. I know that another story of his called What Light was just released in October, but I have a feeling this isn’t going to be as captivating as Thirteen Reasons Why.
A few books your heart adores?
So as not to be a Repetitive Rebecca, I left out my books that are a series since I have already placed them above in a previous question.
These are some of my favorite books, so you might as well trust my judgment and put them in your TBR list if you haven’t already read them.
DEFINITELY get Whispers of Bedlam Asylum because guess what?! Yours truly and my wonderful girl Annelise are in it. Oh yeah, I s**t you not ladies and gents. The wonderful Mark C. King gave us the esteemed pleasure of being written into this majestic little tale. Just to make you want to get this even more, both our characters are stuck in an insane asylum together against their will…and I swear, we’re sane.
(Just look for the names Jenaca and Annelise 😉 )
What series’ coming conclusion makes you sad?
(Uncontrollable tears) I don’t want it to ever end!!
What books are on your wish list?
There is like…over 300 books in my TBR list right now, so the above will have to suffice for now.

Out of all the books you’ve listed here, I’ve only read Harry Potter, Thirteen Reasons Why, Flipped, and Optimists Die First. I really liked all of them, though Optimists really stood out to me as an amazing story. I hope you enjoy it when you get your hands on it!😊

Me too! I only started reading Sarah J. Maas’ books this past December because I became obsessed with ACOMAF

I haven’t read ACOMAF yet! I have so many books from authors that I need to get through before I can read books that I have purchased. I made an excuse with Throne of Glass 😉

I wish I could read anywhere near 100 books. I don’t have a goal, I just keep chugging along, reading at least a chapter a day and building on my audiobook library. If not for audiobooks, I’d be in a real spot. Good luck on the challenge!

I really like A Series of Unfortunate Events. And how come you’ve lost it? Now that the TV show is coming, I think it would be a great opportunity for you to get into a library again (as long as you have one near you, of course) to reread them. You could even try to do a read along!
(Ah, and thanks for following my baby blog!)

I think my parents must have given them away, assuming I didn’t want them anymore after I had read them 😖 I am honestly not looking forward to the tv show though, it seems like Hollywood just doesn’t know how to capture the horror and wonderful aspects that Lemony Snicket created. Its a shame
LikeLike
I agree, Lemony Snicket’s writing can’t really be translated, it must be experienced first hand. But the beauty of Hollywood adaptations isn’t in the quality of their work, but in the fact that it makes people excited about reading or rereading things. I read the Divergent, the Hunger Games and the the Miss Peregrine trilogies because of the movies coming out, but I haven’t watched any of them (mostly because of my laziness, to be honest).

I suppose that’s true, it doesnt get more people inclined to read before they seem the film. I loved how they did Harry apotter and The Hunger Games, but I’m afraid I couldn’t get into Divergent or Twilight.
