The 1989 Book Tag

September 18, 2015 Posted by angelreads tags 1 Comment

1989 book tag

I love Taylor Swift. If you have me on twitter then you would probably know that. I think she is pretty amazing. I have seen her 3 times in concert before and I am seeing her again in December. Anyway, I saw this tag pop up and I knew that I had to do it. So here it is.

The 1989 Book Tag was created by the lovely Reviews from a Bookworm. (and I am very happy she did.) Song lyrics match up to questions. The songs used are from her most recent album 1989 (which I must say, that I adore).

Welcome to ny

 

You can want who you want, boys and boys and girls and girls.

1. A book with LGBT theme

256683For this I had to go with the Mortal instrument series by Cassandra Clare – because Alec and Mangus, my heart. They are just perfect together. They may not be the main characters but they do steal the show a lot fo the time.

 

 

 

Blank space

You can tell me when it’s over if the high was worth the pain.

2. A book that hit you right in the feels… but was totally worth it.

24917415Paperweight by Meg Haston gave me so many feels. All I wanted to do to the main character was hug and hold her tight. I cried a little bit – but I cry at so many things that I am not surprised. You can read my review here. 

 

 

 

I’m a nightmare dressed like a daydream.

3. A book that you hated but you loved the cover

ashes

 

An inheritance of Ashes by Leah Bobet. Okay I didn’t hate this book but I didn’t love it. The cover though is gorgeous.  You can check out my review here.

 

 

I’ve got a blank space baby and I’ll write your name.

4. Your latest book boyfriend/girlfriend

mangus chanseThis is a tie between Mangus Chase from The Sword of Summer by Rick Riordan and Chet Falconer from Dangerous lies by Becca Fitzpatrick

Style edit

 

We never go out of style.

5. A timeless classic that you love

72193Harry Potter – does anything else need to be said. I grew up with it and will read it again and again for as long as I can.

 

 

 

out of the woods

 

The rest of the world is black and white, but we were in screaming colour.

6. A book which had vivid world building.

cinderI haven’t read that many books recently that had amazing world building, which makes me really up upset. Because world building is my best friend. But The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer. Cinder starts the world off well and as the series goes on, it gets bigger, better and more frightening.

 

 

 

The monsters turned out to be just trees.

7. A book where things weren’t exactly how they seemed.

16143347There is no questions asked, We Were Liars by E. Lockhart is the book for this. If you have read it you will know what I mean. You have no idea what to believe, who to believe, if anything is really happening. You can read my review here.

 

 

 

all you had to do was stay

 

You were all I wanted… but not like this.

8. A book you were eagerly anticipated, but ended up being disappointed by.

15832932

I loved My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick so I was really excited when What I Thought was True was coming out but I ended up being a little disappointed. I liked it but didn’t love it.

 

 

 

Shake if off

 

The haters gonna hate…

9. A book/series that everyone seems to love but you can’t help but hate.

throne of glassOkay, so I don’t hate these books. But I couldn’t think of another series. I don’t really like the Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Mass. In saying that I have only read the first book and I am planning to read the whole series before November. I actually really like Sarah’s writing and the world that she started to build. I enjoyed the characters and the plot. However I really disliked the romance aspect – I really don’t like love triangles and I know things that happen further on in the series – anyway.

 

10. A book/series you love but everyone else seems to hate.

hus hushI love the Hush Hush series by Becca Fitzpatrick. I read it nearly 6 years and I love it just as much. Because come on Patch. Yes, there were some problems but overall I really loved the series.

 

 

 

I wish you would edit

 

I wish you knew I’ll never forget you as long as I live.

11. A book/series you know you will always love.

pushing the lmitsI would say Harry Potter but I want to do something different, because you know me I would always choose Harry Potter. But I think I will always love The Pushing the Limits Series by Katie McGarry. It’s amazing and beautiful and I wish it would go on and on.

 

 

 

I wish you were right here, right now

12. An upcoming release you wish you could have right now!

lady midLady Midnight by Cassandra Clare. Because it’s Cassie and the snippets that are coming out are soo good.

 

 

 

bad blood (1)

Now we’ve got bad blood, you know it used to be mad love.

13. A character you once loved but grew to hate.

divergentTris from the Divergent trilogy by Veronica Roth. I liked her at the start but as time went she got so annoying and got on my nerves so much.

 

 

 

Did you have to do this, I was thinking that you could be trusted.Did you have to ruin what was shiny, now it’s all rusted.

14. An author you haven’t forgiven for the things they did to your favourite characters/books.

Cough…Cough. J.K Rowling, enough said.

Wildest dreams edit

I can see the end as it begins.

15. A book that was far too predictable.

25294101I cannot think of anything at the moment – maybe Gambit by C.L Denault – but I still reallt enjoyed the book. You can read my review here. 

 

 

 

Nothing lasts forever but this is getting good now.

16. A book/series that you wish could have gone on forever.

72193Again, Harry Potter because come on, why not?

 

 

 

 

How you get that girl

That’s how it works, that’s how you get the girl.

17. One of your favourite books where they ‘got the girl’

my life next doorMy Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick. It’s beautiful and my heart…all the feels. It’s so adorable, I might give a re-read soon.

 

 

 

this love edit

In darkest screams, in wildest dreams, I never dreamed on this.

18. A book that completely shocked you.

A Small Madness | FRONT COVER (10 September 2014)A Small Madness by Dianne Touchell. Wow what a book.

 

 

 

 

i know places (1)

Loves a fragile little flame it could burn out.

19. A book you thought you loved but quickly came to hate.

jkt_9780545709392.pdfADirft by Paul Griffin. I didn’t hate the book but I didn’t love it. I thought I was going to like it more than I did. You can read my review here

 

 

 

Something happens when everybody finds out.See the vultures circling dark clouds.

20. A book you didn’t want to be seen reading.

Fifty Shades of GreyFifty Shades of Grey. I’m not even going to read it.

 

 

 

clean (1)

The drought was the very worst, when the flowers that we’d grown together died of first.

21. When the wait between books made you forget everything that happened.

Any books! Unless I start the series late and read the book just before the next book comes out.

By morning, gone was any trace of you, I think I am finally clean.

22. A book/series you wiped from your memory.

AllegiantThe Divergent Trio, again because come on Allegiant. The ending was just arrrg and the book in general.

 

 

 

And Done. I tag you!!!! Anyone can do this. That was tough and long. I hope you enjoyed. You can find me on twitter at @angel_reads and on facebook and also on Instagram at angelreads. Subscribe to my email through the sidebar or follow me on bloglovin’ to keep up to date

    Ahh, this was great and I loved the way you did the graphics and the lyrics! 😀 I don’t really listen to a lot of music in general, but Taylor Swift is still pretty cool. Can’t deny how catchy Shake it Off is. xDXD
    Zomg, yes, I will never recover from We Were Liars and I think A Small Madness was so…I don’t even know how to describe it!??! Disturbing and sad and honest?!? I LIKED IT BUT WOW. And I have to admit, in retrospect I’m not such a huge fan of Tris either? I mean, I think the series was a lot about self-discover and being who you really are, BUT, that saying…I still don’t KNOW who Tris even is?!?! Just some girl who will sacrifice things for the great of good? But that’s not actually a personality. SO YEAH. I think I loved that series more while I was devouring it. *nods*

April was a very good reading month for me, especi April was a very good reading month for me, especially after last month. I had some really fantastic reads in April. I did do a lot of re-reading this month but I had such blast. I re-read Caught Up and Play Along and the first 4 books in the Ironside Academy series. 📚

I read some books that I’ve been waiting for including the new book from Kels and Denise Stone, as well as the new Tessa Hale. ✨

Overall it was such a good month, lots of binge reading series and starting on some new authors. I’m so excited to see what May brings. 🖤

What was your favourite book that you read in April?

IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️ If you didn’t know al IT’S RACE WEEK! 🏎️

If you didn’t know already I love F1, have ever since I was younger and decided that this year it would be fun to combined my love for F1 and reading together. 📚

After a week off we are back at it. We are in Miami this week’s and things are only just heating up. This week I’m reading Falling Off the Cliff  Kanitha P.

…

Formula 1 legend in the making and rising star Thiago Valencia is chasing redemption as well as his second World Champion title. With a tarnished reputation and an undetermined future in F1 that hangs by a terribly loose thread, he can’t afford to lose his seat. Thiago is ready to do anything to redeem himself and erase his past mistakes. When a mysterious woman intrudes on his private party in Monte Carlo, he is certain the universe has brought his polar opposite into his life as salvation. He is sunshine, she is moonlight; he is a bright star and she is a moonbeam.

Destiny takes the wheel, steering Kamari into Thiago’s orbit, but her open disdain and closely guarded heart warn her to stay away. Enchanted by her charms, Thiago is intent on melting her freezing barriers and tearing down the walls shielding her heart.

When Kamari agrees to help him save his future by being his fake girlfriend, the unexpected happens, triggered by a game of lies, secrets and desire.

As they plunge towards the finish line, the race veers offtrack and neither of them are ready to fall off the cliff.
… 

How Race Week Reads Will Work 

On Monday of race week I’ll announce the book I’ll be reading for the week, then throughout the week I’ll be posting stories and my thoughts. And then on Sunday, race day my review and final thoughts will go up.

A little late but I am finally getting to share Ra A little late but I am finally getting to share Race 5’s Race Week Reads review. This week I read, Downforce (Pit Lane #1) by Hannah Lily.

🏎️ Review 🏎️

I had so much fun reading this book. I knew I was in for a ride as soon as I started Downforce. It was entertaining, fun, and I just had a good time reading it. And while it does explore some heavy topics, I don’t think it took away from the fun nature of the book.

Right from the start, we can see the tension between F1 Presenter, Olivia Fraser and F1 Driver, Jonah Scott. And while silly at times, it was fun seeing them interact together. Both really didn’t like each other. They both had said things about and to one another that sometimes it caused chaos. And I was here for it.

I did find that at times, just silly things happened. I am not a massive rom-com reader, and there was a lot of falling into one another, and arguments stemmed from nothing. This is honestly just because I don’t like these types of scenes, but it didn’t really make me dislike the book at all.

I loved the whole road trip aspect of the book, it’s different from other F1 books I’ve read so far this year and just made for some interesting banter and lust. I do wish that the road trip was a little longer than it was because I did feel like the romance moved pretty quickly here, but again, it didn’t really affect how much I was enjoying the book.

The romance was this combination of being slow burn and full of angst right at the start, to the road trip happening and then bam. But I loved it, though. The banter between Olivia and Jonah was fantastic. I loved seeing them grow not only with one another but with themselves as well.

Overall, I had a great time reading Downforce and will be continuing the series for sure when the other books come out. The romance was angsty and just felt right. The found family aspect really worked well here, and the F1 aspects were pretty okay. Not the best I’ve seen, but not the worst either. If you are looking for a fun read that has a great romance and a little rom-comy, then pick this one up.
I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. I’ve already had a pretty amazing reading year. There have been so many books that I have enjoyed but there are some that I have just loved. 🖤

I didn’t realise before I put this post together that all of these books are from authors I’ve read and loved before. There hasn’t been a Rebecca Yarros book that I haven’t rated under 4 Stars. Elsie Silver is just making me love everything that she writes. Wild and Wrangled may be my favourite in the series. 📖

Three rereads also made it to this list. Binding 13 still makes me gasp and smile all at the same time. And Caught Up and Play Along just hit every time. 📚

I’ve honestly had a great year so far and since making this post a few more books I’ve read I’ve ended up loving. It’s going to be hard to pick my favourites at the end of the year that is for sure. ✨

What books have you loved reading this year? Are any books that made my list on yours? Let me know!
