Fall book tag!

This is the first ever tag created by the incredible Bionic Book Worm! I wasn’t tagged, but… I’m going to do it anyway!

The rules:

  • Please link back to me, Bionic Book Worm, as the creator of this tag!! I want to see your answers!!
  • Use the graphics – if you want
  • Have fun!

Ready Player One by Ernest Cline

If you know my blog, you knew I was going to put this book in here somewhere, might as well get it in right at the start. At just about any point during this book, I could have put the book down and thought to myself, “I have never read anything like this!”

It’s such a unique premise with a well-thought out world. Beside this book, most books start to look a little cliché.

 

Golden Son by Pierce Brown

This one has an unfair advantage because I just finished it, but WOW! In all honesty, it wasn’t the kind of ending that was completely unexpected, simply based on past events within the series, but it still hit me in the face like a brick.

It’s set up to go one way, then it keeps jerking left and right like two overly polite people trying to get around each other in the grocery store.

The Art of Racing in the Rain by Garth Stein

This one has all the feels, especially if you’re dog person.

In short, the entire book is narrated by the family dog, Enzo. And he’s such a good boy! Yes, he is!

I Am Number Four by Pittacus Lore

Look at those colours. Yup.

Six of Crows book coverSix of Crows by Leigh Bardugo

Kaz Brekker is the man.

This might be a heavily debated decision. There’s a lot of setup in the Six of Crows before the action begins. But I chose it because once the action really begins, it goes on and on and on. I think it might still be going on right now. I might have to read Wonder Woman to see if Kaz shows up in the background somewhere…

IlluminaeIlluminae by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff

This was, by far, the hardest decision in the entire tag. There are so many books that I want to read, and I want to read them all RIGHT NOW! But Illuminae is probably the one that has been that highest on my list for the longest amount of time. It’s currently “on deck” as soon as I finish Morning Star.

Honourable mention goes to This Savage Song, Invictus, Nevernight, and about 37 others.

 

Since I wasn’t tagged on this one, I’m not going to tag anyone in turn. Though, I encourage everyone to take a crack if you feel the desire. It was a really fun one to take part in.

Fun fact about this post: I suffered through three nasty dog farts to finish writing it.
