2017 Year in Review Tag

Hello everyone! It feels like it’s been so long since I’ve done a tag, so that’s what I am doing today! I was tagged by my friend Sarah! Thanks so much for the tag! Everybody should go give her post some love as well!

FIRST EVER FEMALE DOCTOR WHO: Favorite female protagonist

Definitely has to be Hermione Granger!

GCC CUT TIES WITH QATAR: An author you cut ties with

I didn’t cut ties with any author I’ve read before, but I’ve decided to never read a book by Benjamin Alire Saenz because of how he’s been attacking book bloggers. I’m not for that at all.

LA LA LAND OSCAR MIX UP: A book that surprised you

this boy is a rainbow by Sam Payne. I did not intend to like this poetry collection as much as I did! It really hit all my emotions and I just loved it so much!

HURRICANES AND EARTHQUAKES: A book that rocked your world

The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden!! Love, love, loved this book!

LOUVRE ABU DABI: Favorite book cover art

Stealing Sarah’s answer for this one! Starfish by Akemi Dawn Bowman has a gorgeous cover!!

DA VINCI’S SALVATOR MUNDI SELLS FOR $450 MIL: A take-my-money book

The Book of Dust by Philip Pullman. I haven’t read it yet but I love the His Dark Materials series so I just had to have the signed limited edition copy of this book from Waterstone’s. Let me tell you, international shipping is not cheap! I paid a pretty penny for this.

TOTAL ECLIPSE: A sequel that overshadows the first book

I think the Harry Potter books just get better as you continue on with the series.

MUSLIM BAN: Favorite diverse read

Nyxia by Scott Reintgen! This book had such an amazingly diverse cast and I loved it!!

ITALY DOESN’T QUALIFY FOR THE WORLD CUP: Most disappointing book

img_3229

Given to the Sea by Mindy McGinnis. I’ve heard such great things about The Female of the Species, so I had high expectations for this book. Unfortunately, this book really let me down. I hated everything about it.

PRINCE HARRY ENGAGED: Favorite ship

img_2361

Erica and Tyler from First Came Forever by Annie Woods! I will go down with this ship!!

STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI: Most anticipated book

img_2013

I’m guessing this was for 2017. My most anticipated book for 2017 was Warcross by Marie Lu. I haven’t read it yet, but I finally bought a copy so hopefully I will be reading it soon!

I TAG:

Sarah 

Kris

Jess

Margarida

‘Til next time!

      1. Yup. I’m glad I didn’t end up reading any of his books yet bc I would feel torn if I was an actual fan. (Like I think you may be) which that really sucks! Like you want to like his books, but don’t want to support the author. It’s a dilemma that’s no fun!

  1. Awesome answers! I didn’t know Benjamin Alire Saenz was attacking bloggers. Not cool. I liked one book by him, but now I’m put off by that. YES TO HARRY POTTER! I also love the cover for Starfish. I was thinking of using it for one cover love prompt on Instagram haha.

      1. And the way he worded his comments too.. That’s just plain wrong… And he even attacked a girl who was a victim of abuse and told her that her opinion is unvalid basically… I wasn’t really blown by his book so it makes it easier to not support him, too.
