The Rainbow Book Tag

Hello mi amigos! Today’s post is going to be the Rainbow Book Tag. I came across this book tag from Kelly | Another Book in the Wall. I haven’t done a book tag in a long time, so I’m actually pretty excited to do tag. Let’s get down to things!

The Rules:

• Thank the lovely person that tagged you!
• It must be the dominant color of the cover, not the spine!
• It has to be a book you own or the exact copy that you read. (Ex: There are two copies of The Hate U Give, choose the cover of the copy you read)
• If you do not own a book of the certain cover, choose one that has the color somewhere on it.
• Tag some people do it! Whether they are bloggers, bookstagrammers, or booktubers. Spread the love!
• Make it a game or do the tag as originally intended.

If you want to know more about the book, all you have to do is click the books’ cover. You’ll then be taken to the books’ GoodReads page. — Enjoy!

Red
Cruel Beauty by Rosamund Hodge

‘One of Lux’s hands had found mine, and even though he was mouthing No, his grip gave me the strength to meet the lady’s eyes and whisper, “Even so, I will keep my vow. Where he dies, I will die. And there will I be buried.”
And with a burst of song, the sparrow landed on my wrist.
A handful of kindness, it said to the Kindly Ones. The answer to your riddle.‘

Books to Read on a Rainy Day

I don’t know about where you live, but where I live, the weather in Spring tends to either be wet and rainy, sunny and chilly, or be both at the same time. It could rain for 3 days straight, and then sunny for the next week and we won’t see a drop of rain. The weather here in Vancouver and Greater Vancouver Area, is very unpredictable. In fact, the only predictable thing about Vancouver is the unpredictable Spring weather.

I usually know when spring is here when there’s a huge and fast thunder storm that blows by. There will be hail, and extreme winds, followed by the rumble of thunder that rattles the house. Sometimes there will be lightning as well. The whole shebang. —-However, all of these books that I’ve listed are books that I could read over and over again.

Here are a few of the many books I’ve read that I could read over and over again, yet would be perfect for rainy, and/or stormy weather.

6 Popular YA Books that I Actually Enjoyed Reading

Popular books are always an iffy thing since the reactions people can have are widely varied. Some people could love the book(s), while some people are the  exact opposite of that.

I usually find myself in the in-between. I didn’t love the book but I didn’t end up hating it either. For this post though here are some popular YA books that I actually ended up enjoying!

Here are just 6 Popular Young Adult Books that I ended up enjoying!

Books I’m Looking Forward to in March 2017

Hello lovelies! Just a little update on my life: My cat, Jewels, is starting to shed his winter fur, so that means spring is just around the corner! And the snow is back with a vengeance! Enough about my cat and snow, though. Let’s talk about books!

Today’s post is all about the books that are going to be published this March (2017) that I’m looking forward to reading. 

Rainy Day Reads | Top 5 Wednesday #10

This weeks topic for Top 5 Wednesday is about Rainy Day Reads! I’m taking this as books that would be perfect to read on a rainy day. I have no idea about you, but when I read during the day, the atmosphere around me has to match the feel I’m getting from the book I might potentially read. I like to immerse myself in the books I read. Maybe that’s why I often find myself reading at night or in the early mornings when no one would bother me..

So when it’s raining, I like to read a book that will have a warm atmosphere around it. The same goes for generally cold days, or in the winter. Books that would take place in Summer would be perfect! If you want to read a darker book though, say, something creepy, a rainy day would be another great time to read whatever came to your mind! Here are the books that I would recommend:

Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Sáenz | Book Review #21

‘Dante can swim. Ari can’t. Dante is articulate and self-assured. Ari has a hard time with words and suffers from self-doubt. Dante gets lost in poetry and art. Ari gets list in thoughts of his older brother who is in prison. Dante is fair skinned. Ari’s features are much darker. It seems that a boy like Dante, with his open and unique perspective on life, would be the last person to break down the walls that Ari has built around himself.

But against all odds, when Ari and Dante meet, they develop a special bond that will teach them the most important truths of their lives, and help will define the people they want to be. But there are big hurdles in their way, and only by believing in each other–and the power of their friendship–can Ari and Dante emerge stronger on the other side.’
