I think I’ve had enough of the heat, and thankfully the weather’s been more tolerable lately. We’ve still got one month of summer to go, so let’s enjoy what’s left of it and do a summer themed book tag.
Iced Drink: A Refreshing Book
House of Many Ways by Diana Wynne Jones. In the midst of reading a lot of darker, denser books, this story was so charming and magical.
Cotton Candy: A Book That Was Fluffy and Sweet
13 Little Blue Envelopes by Maureen Johnson
Sunglasses: A Dark Book
The Bone Orchard by Sara A. Mueller
Picnic On A Rainy Day: A Sad Book
If I Stay by Gayle Foreman
Sand: A Book That Irritated You
The Rift Uprising by Amy S. Foster. There were so many cool elements in this story that were ignored to make room for an insta-love romance that I never cared about
Summer Blockbuster: Favorite Book to Screen Adaptation
The Martian by Andy Weir
Dropped Ice Cream: A Book You Were Anticipating That Wasn’t Good
She Who Became the Sun by Shelley Parker-Chan. It was hyped and sounded like something I’d enjoy, but what I got as not what I expected. I think this is a good book if you know what you’re getting into, but I didn’t and I was disappointed
Palm Tree: A Large Book That You Loved
Comic Book Tattoo is an oversized graphic novel collection with over 50 stories inspired by Tori Amos songs. I’m not even a Tori Amos fan, but the variety of talent in this anthology made it a really cool addition to my shelves
Bonfire: A Book You Want to Burn
I don’t want to burn any books. Even the books I didn’t like don’t deserve that fate. Besides, it’s too hot for a fire right now, even at night
Fireworks: A Book That Exploded Into the Scene
Kaikeyi by Vaishnavi Patel. Some books are anticipated by readers way in advance. This book had some hype leading up to its release, but I didn’t hear too much about it until it came out, then I saw it everywhere
