Mid-year freak out tag (but in writing because i'm not a youtuber)

Dear reader,
(I wrote this before finishing Again, But better by the way.)

Today I'm going to be doing the mid-year book-themed freak out tag because it's funny and I want to. Tada.

Question 1: Favourite read of 2019?

I could not pick one so I rounded it down to Throne of glass, Carry on, Fangirl, Red Queen and Heartless.

Question 2: The best sequel you've read?

I did not read many good sequels but my favourite was definitely Crown of midnight.

Question 3: New release you want to read but haven't yet?

I have two, the opposite of always and a curse so dark and lonely. I own both of them but I haven't picked them up yet. I know, I'm ashamed of myself too.

Question 4: The most anticipated release of the second half of 2019

Easy, wayward son. 81 days 6 hours 57 minutes and 32 seconds in counting baby!

Question 5: Biggest disappointment of 2019?

Two can keep a secret. I read one of us is lying and had really high expectations that weren't met.

Question 6: Biggest surprise of 2019?

Jessicas Ghost was a book club book that I liked a lot more than I thought I would.

Question 7: Favourite new authours?

Rainbow Rowell who I had somehow never heard of before 2019 and Stephanie Perkins- the queen of contemporary romance.

Question 8: Newest fictional crush?

Probably Dorian but I don't feel too in love with him so I'm gonna say Pilot who I am actually whole-heartedly in love with. (I am only 100 pages in at this point)

Question 9: Newest favourite character?

Celaena and Shane cause their both great.

Question 10: Book that made you cry?

I have 3:
-Crown of midnight (end of part 1)
-One (the very end)
-Allegiant (1 when I spoiled the end and 2 at the end)

Question 11: A book that made you happy?

Finding Audrey. I just love Sophie Kinsella, she cracks me up, I would read her shopping lists if she let me.

Question 12: The most beautiful book you brought in 2019?

-The shatter me series
-3 dark crows (the naked hardback one)
-five feet apart

Question 13: Books you need to read by the end of 2019?

*big intake of breath* all Cassandra Clare books, the rest of throne of glass, more john green, daisy jones and the six,  Wayward son, the six of crows duo, war storm, after you, a darker shade of magic,  scythe, renegades, the hazelwood, the cruel prince, the darkest minds, cinder, the 5th wave, Eragon, school of good and evil, the night circus, the uglies series, carve the mark, the shatter me series minus shatter me, THUG, our chemical hearts, the problem with forever, EOICF, Disney twisted tales, Everless, never greener, surprise me, the help, hidden figures and probably more I've forgotten about.

Yeah, I know.
What can I say I'm very ambitious.


Love

7 Songs that...

snow-dance-alana-tousignant.jpg (900×675) (fineartamerica.com) Dear Reader,  This is a book blog, with a strange amount of Taylor Swift references sure, but a book blog still.  Today, I choose to write about music!  These songs, the 7 favourites and 3 honourable mentions I have picked are unexplainably attached to my mind. In this blog, I try to explain.  Let's get started:  1. "Heroes" by David Bowie  Despite my adoration of Bowie, who I own 1/2 of his discography on vinyl,  several vintage collectors magazines of, and 4 thrifted posters hung up in my room of- my attachment to this song, funnily enough sprung from my love of a book- so I would say is a great number one for easing my regular readers into this change of brand (don't worry this is a one time thing). To those who have digested the novel/film: The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky, you will know the scene where these characters, some of my all time favourites, drive through a ...

Just for December by Laura Jane Williams

Just for December by Laura Jane Williams: review Dear reader,  To Start with, thank you so much for the lovely girls at Avon Harper Collins for gifting me this proof around the holidays! This book was absolutely delightful, and extremely well timed. I cracked open this book on the same day the skies decided to comply with Michael Bublé and while it might not be a white Christmas, as the rain seems to have washed it away now, it made to be pretty idyllic conditions to read this book. I went into this book feeling festive and ready for something to give me all the fuzzy Christmas feelings, which it provided along with a lot more feelings than I predicted. Williams manages to craft cliches and worn-out tropes to make them seem like nothing of the sort and in fact- revive them. Enemies to lovers has not been done so humanly in a very long time, and all you have to do to see that statement holds meaning is scroll through my other reviews and see that the enemies to lover’s trope...

Before the coffee gets cold a book talk (Non-spoiler! You're welcome)

Before the Coffee Gets Cold: Amazon.co.uk: Kawaguchi, Toshikazu, Trousselot, Geoffrey: 9781529029581: Books Dear Reader,  This review will not contain spoilers, so feel free to read if you haven't yet read the book, and with that let's begin:  These stories definitely build in intensity as you plough on, with subtly building engagement. The first two stories for me provided little interest, a point at which usually I would choose to DNF and call my loses. However, something about the writing, simple but almost translucent into the lives of these individuals, gave me the impression that it had more to give despite the seemingly stagnant story endings.  I think the best way to describe my growth to loving this book is recognising the beauty within its simplicity. As a predominantly YA reader myself, I couldn't help but expect this book to tie up in a perfect interloping knot at the end. My hope of this, I see now, may have blinded me to the crystal  humanity being bare...
