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- Holiday / Seasonal Freebie- Memorable characters of 2020

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana  @thatartsyreadergirl . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we book bloggers will post a reply to the topic. This week, it's a seasonal / winter freebie. I kind of went rogue in a way. In the winter you see the end of the year best-of lists, and that's exactly what I did with this post. You will find subsections to indicate the genre each book is in.  YA Contemporary 1- Pepper from Tweet Cute by Emma Lord Tweet Cute was a novel I read in September. I fell hard for the major character, Pepper. She was so sweet, and she wanted so much to lice her own life.  As a bonus, she baked, and I seem to really love characters who bake. Pepper made this list because she wanted to live her own life for her, and I really admire that quality in a person. 2- Sophie from 10 Blind Dates by Ashley Elston I’m in the middle of this book right now, but I ...

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.  ...

Top Ten Tuesday- Book characters linked to Halloween candy!!

Welcome Back! I know I’ve been saying that I will be back and blogging more. Life happened last week, I had an appointment last week, and I just got lazy after that. I’m planning to be back more this week and get posting again this week. Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl .  This was born out of a love of lists and bringing the bookish community together. This week is a Halloween Freebie. I’m not into the horror or mystery genres. I wanted to do my top 8 Halloween candies and pick a character that reminds me of them. 1- Chocolate Rhys from A Court of Thorns and Roses series by Sarah J. Maas because he is smooth. This was a no brainier for me. Rhys is smooth, and he always knows what to say. He is charming and flirtatious so he was reminds me of chocolate no question. 2- Reese’s cups Claudia from Foolish Hearts by Emma Mills because she is sweet but has the determination to get what she wants. I read this book ...
