Spring Cleaning Book Tag

1. Getting started: A book series you’ve been wanting to read

The Grisha trilogy and every book after by Leigh Bardugo, I know I'm aware how behind I am on this series. The first three books are sitting on my Kindle and I will get to them soon. I have heard the hype time and time again and seen the mixed reviews for this series. I want to read them all in 2019. 

2. Cleaning/organizing the closet: The best way to organize books

What is organizing your books? I'm kidding but I really don't organize my  books. I have kept my series and books that are related to authors together. If I had more book organization and maybe this summer, I will I would keep this system but have like colors together for stand alones. 

3. Getting rid of unnecessary things: Book/series you no longer need

Oh god. I will say Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte. This is a classic novel that I stopped like 40 pages from the end, but oy I could not take this book anymore. I've called it DNFed  and I just need to get rid of the book and move on. 

4. Get some air: Your favorite light-hearted read

A favorite light hearted read is Fangirl. I know what you're all thinking she will never not put this book on a list ever right?! Anyway, this book is a delight and I love it so much.  

5. Clean out the kitchen cupboards: Favorite food-themed read

I have not read any food related reads. One on my TBR is All That She Can See by Carrie Hope Fletcher. I have read the synopsis, and this seems like a delightfully fun read about food. I guess Geekerella might count because of the Food Truck? 

6. Dust the shelves: What’s the fifth book on your bookshelf?

I have two big shelves I use so I used the main one. The fifth was Heart of Iron  by Ashley Poston. This is a Sci Fi Anastasia retelling and was one of my favorite books of 2018.  

7. Wishing for the end: A 2019 release you’re really excited about

There are so many books coming out this year that could fit on this list! Romanov by Nadine Brandes is one of my tops and it comes out next month! I can't wait to read this Anastasia retelling!  

8. Long but satisfying: The longest book series you’ve read

Les Miserables by Victor Hugo. I believe War and Peace is longer, but I have not  finished that book yet. Les Miserables took me over two years to read, but it was so satisfying when I finished.

Top Ten Tuesday- characters that remind me of myself

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! This is a weekly meme where readers discuss ten or whatever number you would like to have based on a prompt. Our host is Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl . Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion,  and discuss how that relates to me  as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar  opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand,  am an introverted creative bookworm.  2- Miriam Kendrick from C

Top Ten Tuesday- Favorite Books of the Year Part 1 (12-21)

    Hi! Jana hosts Top Ten Tuesday @ thatartsyreadergirl . The purpose of this meme was to bring the book blogging community together and foster our love of lists. Each week, Jana posts a topic, and we readers respond based on that prompt. This week our topic is a freebie, so I decided to make my list of my top ten reads part one.   Middle Grade 12- Never After by Melissa de la Cruz I'm almost done with this book. It's a duology, and I loved the new twist on fairy tales.    YA 13- Don’t Read the Comments by Eric Smith I read this early in the year and it stuck with me. This YA Contemporary about gaming and the culture of the gaming industry was fantastic.  14- The Book Thief by Markus Zusak It took me years to read this book but I really enjoyed it. I love the unique narrator, the characters, and the story.  15- The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas This is another backlist release. I loved this book, and I knew when I read it that it had the potential to be on this list. I still thi

2019 Book Resolutions Tag!

Hey everyone! So Thursdays on the blog I am going to post a new tag. I think tags are so much fun, and I enjoy the time to reflect on what I’ve read in the past, or what I want to read. Images come from Goodreads. I grabbed the questions from  this blog 1. An author you’d like to read (that you’ve never read before). Leigh Bardugo! I have heard such great things about the Grisha verse, so I want to see if it lives up to all the hype. I have a feeling it will, and I am intrigued by the world. I got the first three books in the series as one large Ebook , so I ’m going to start that next month. I can’t wait to go on the journey and be immersed in a new series!  2. A book you’d like to read. Romanov by Nadine Brandes I love Anastasia and the Romanov family. This looks like such a fantastic retelling. I am drawn in just reading the blurb on Goodreads.  3. A classic you’d like to read. A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett. I’ve had the Barnes and Nobel edition of
