I am so excited about this tag! Hocus Pocus is one of my favorite movies to watch during the Halloween season! This tag was created by Katie @ Never Not Reading. She was also kind enough to tag me in it! Thanks so much Katie! Let’s get to it!
RULES
There are no rules! Just link back to Katie in your post and thank the person who tagged you!
THE SANDERSON SISTERS
A great trilogy.
The Golden Compass by Philip Pullman!
WINIFRED SANDERSON
A book with a truly evil female villain.
My typical answer would be Dolores Umbridge from Harry Potter but I’m going to switch it up and say Levana from the Lunar Chronicles.
SARAH SANDERSON
A book that uncannily attracts children.
A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket.
MARY SANDERSON
A book that is just plain silly.
I don’t read silly books…I’m going to go with one from my childhood and say Mrs. Pigglewiggle. I think it was funny anyway.
MAX
A book that is trying really hard to be cool, but doesn’t always succeed.
Cayleth Warding and the Scarlet One. It just seemed like a cheap knock-off of Stephen King’s Storm of the Century. When you try to recreate a work of King, it’s just a given that you’re gonna fail. Sorry, but King is a master.
DANI
A book that isn’t afraid to tell it like it is.
My current read, Strange Weather. In the very first story of the anthology, he straight up says that this book will not end in a happy way. Cant get anymore straight-forward than that.
BINX
A book series that just won’t die.
Omg. Literally anything Sarah J. Maas. Both of her series, Throne of Glass and ACOTAR, just won’t go away!
ICE
A book with a character that’s dumb as a rock.
Hmm…gonna go with Twilight. Bella is just annoying and she makes the stupidest decisions. P.S. I actually like Twilight. Doesn’t change the fact that I think Bella is dumb.
THE BLACK FLAME CANDLE
A book or series you wish you could resurrect.
Where the Red Fern Grows!! It’s one of my favorite books of all-time and I want everyone to read it so we can all cry together.
HEADLESS BILLY BUTCHERSON
A book that’s not so bad as people make it out to be.
Bringing up Twilight once again. Yes, there are some problematic issues with the story, but come on, it was a good series back in the day! I don’t care what anyone says. I’ll always love Twilight.
WINIFRED SANDERSON’S SPELL BOOK
A book with a mind of its own.
Hmm…Cassandra Clare’s Shadowhunter books. They just keep going and going. I know C.C. says she plans out her books, but they seem to have taken over. And she’s still going with the series. Not that I’m complaining! I love the series!!
GARRY MARSHALL
A book with a cameo.
Lola and the Boy Next Door and Isla and the Happily Ever After!
I TAG:
Fernanda @ The Wanderlust Reader
Jessica @ Reading with Jessica
Sarah @ Book Hooked Nook
Paige @ Books and Belle
Lia @ Outerspades
Nicole @ Boundless Bookaholic
Theresa @ The Calico Books
Jackie @ Bookworm Cafe
This is so much fun!! 😄 I totally agree with you about Twilight. It’s not perfect, but it’s a lot of fun to read and not nearly as bad as so many make it out to be. I can’t wait to do this tag. Thanks for tagging me!! 👻

Hahaha. I haven’t even read any of her books bc they are talked about so much it just turns me off from wanting to read anything by her.

This is such a great tag for Halloween!! I agree with Sarah J Maas books, I’ve only read ACOTAR series and that’s probably where it will end for me. I think an author can go overboard with a book series!

I loved so many of your answers! Yes to Levana – oh, she is one freaky villain! And Bella – could you be a little smarter? Of course, I like you, enjoyed the series. So I feel ok pointing out how dumb she is.
LikeLiked by 1 person
Yes, I think it’s okay to point out Bella is not the smartest since we still enjoyed the series overall!
