Summer Reading Tag | Book Tag

Summer Reading Tag | Book Tag

January 26, 2023 Posted by angelreads Book Tag 2 Comments

It’s time for another book tag. It has been a while since I have done one of these and what better day to do the summer reading tag than today? If you don’t know already I live in Australia and it’s definitely hit summer at the moment. It’s quite warm let’s just saw that. This tag was created by Amy Jane Reads. However, the video is no longer active and I found the tag over at Zezee With Books.

I have a love-hate relationship with summer. I love it because I like to swim and go to the beach. But also it does get quite hot here in Melbourne. I didn’t end up doing the whole tag as some questions I didn’t know how to answer some, but let’s get right into the tag. 

WHAT THREE BOOKS DO YOU WANT TO READ THIS SUMMER?

There are so many books that I want to read in the next few months. So many. But some of the books on my tbr that I want to at least try and read are; A Deal with the Elf King by Elisa Kova, Wicked Beauty (Dark Olympus #3) by Katee Robert and Midnight Kisses by Jeanine Bennedict. 

WHICH CHARACTER MOST EMBODIES THE TRAITS OF SUMMER? 

This was such a hard one for me to pick. I really don’t know. So instead I picked a few books that I have loved that covers remind me of summer. Heartless(Chestnut Springs #2) by Elsie Silver, Laurels and Liquor (Pack Saint Clair #3) by Thora Woods. Nowhere But Here (Thunder Road #1) by Katie McGarry and For Vacation Only by Mila Nicks.

WHAT BOOK/S DO YOU MOST ASSOCIATE WITH THE PHYSICALITY OF SUMMER?

Again this is such a hard question. And I did have to do some digging. But firstly Girl Against the Universe by Paula Stokes stands out to me. Tennis and Summer are just the pair for me. Plus this book was fantastic. The second one is Secrets of a Summer Night (Wallflowers #1) by Lisa Kleypas. Not only is it one of my favourites but it just reminds me of summer nights. 

WHAT KIND OF BOOKS DO YOU LIKE TO READ ON HOLIDAY? ANY BOOKS THAT HOLD MEMORIES TO CERTAIN PLACES?

I honestly will read anything on holidays. I’m a mood reader through and through. So I could read something that will make me call my eyes out on a holiday. But I do tend to feel like reading more on the contemporary side of romances during the summer and when I am away on holiday. They are just easy to read. I can go back and forth without having to remember everything. 

Some of the books I have read or would love to read again in summer; Luna and the Lie by Mariana Zapata, Focused (Ward Sisters #1) by Karla Sorensen. Rookie Move (Brooklyn Bruisers #1) by Sarina Bowen and In the Weeds (Lovelight #2) by B.K. Borison.

IF YOU COULD GO ON HOLIDAY WITH ANY AUTHOR, WHO WOULD YOU GO WITH AND WHERE? WHAT WOULD YOU WANT TO KNOW?

Ohhh. This is just such an interesting one. But I would love to go on a holiday with Cassandra Clare. She has gone to so many magical places and I would love for her to take me on those journeys that she has gone on. I don’t even care where we go. 

And there we go! That is the summer reading tag. I had a lot of fun doing this tag and it was a fantastic way to celebrate a hot summer day. What would your answers be? Do you like summer? If you want to do this tag, let me know! Let’s chat!

    I feel you on liking summer but not always liking the heat. I’m still in winter, but last summer was HOT. I loved how you included McGarry’s and Silver’s book. They both make me think summer.

    Nowhere But Here has been on my TBR forever! I need to get to it. I really enjoyed Girl Against the Universe. I forgot about that one!

March was a better reading month than February for March was a better reading month than February for me, and while I’m still stuck in my heated rivalry fanfiction era I managed to scrap out of it a little this month. 

I reread four books from the sweet omegaverse series and honestly had the best time. I also read two of my most anticipated reads of the year and had a blast. Sadly I did also have my first dnf of the year.

What did you read this March? Any standouts? What are you looking forward to reading in April? Let’s chat!

I have a love-hate relationship with this series. I have a love-hate relationship with this series. But I ended up really enjoying this one. It’s best friends to fake dating to-lovers. It’s always been you, bad-boy/good-girl, and I loved that. While Save Your Breath has quite a few tropes, it really leads itself to it, and it works. 

Aleks and Mia have known each other for years now. Since they were teenagers, that angst has been building up this whole time. And you can tell right from the get-go, it’s fantastic. I even wanted more of it, because I love pain. When Aleks went to live with Mia’s family as a teenager, sparks flew, but for many reasons, they both put their feelings aside. And well, now they are not only going to be fake-dating, but they might as well be engaged, too. 

I really enjoyed seeing how both Aleks and Mia both tried to hide how they were feeling throughout the whole ‘fake-dating’ situation, but anyone could see it. They know each other as no one else does. Aleks has a lot going on, and while I do think this was brushed over a little too much, Mia is his centre. Mia is a massive music star and is a female in the industry, so yeah, people don’t respect her. Obvsiouly because why couldn’t a female star be badass and write about the things that she has gone through? Aleks and Mia get each other, and that is very clear from the start; they are both just trying to squash everything. We get to see them slowly start to show how they feel, and well, one night it all explodes. 

Overall, I enjoyed this one a lot; it’s not my favourite of the series, but I had a great time reading it. I liked Aleks and Mia a lot as characeters and while I think the mental health aspect could have been explored a whole lot more, I can see why it wasn’t. The romance was slow and spicy, the angst was great, and the payoff for these two was what they needed.

Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I onl Well February wasn’t the best reading month. I only ended up reading 3 books in. 3 pretty fun books but one of my slowest readings months in a while. 

And I’m going to be honest here it’s because I’ve been constantly reading Heated Rivalry fanfics. 🤷‍♀️ I’m having the best time though. 

How was your reading in February? Any 5  star reads?

January was a really solid reading month. I read s January was a really solid reading month. I read some books that had been on my tbr for some time, reread a few things that peaked my interest. I also started a few new series. And just had a good time!

I just had a really good start to the year. While February is a little slow so far I’m looking forward to what I can pick up.

What did you read in January? Any 5-star reads? Let’s chat!
