Thursday Tags – 3 Bookish Things

By Jazmin-Jade

This weeks tag actually comes from one of my favorite bookstragramers, Paperfury! If you haven’t jumped on the bookstagram train yet I highly recommend you go check her out.

3 Favourite Authors

I agree with Paperfury here, this is a hard question and I am suffering trying to pick authors. I think I need to list authors who I have read more than just a couple of books for, and for the most part of enjoyed their work. It would be better if I liked books or series that revolve around a different story too.

  1. Sarah J. Maas. I have read 10/11 of her currently released books and I have only not liked one of them. She has only written two series thus far but I think she is a pretty safe bet for a favorite author.
  2. Richelle Mead. I am so conflicted putter her on my list but she is the only other author I have read mass amounts by. I loved her VA series, and I for the most part loved her BL spin off, but I have not enjoyed any of her books set outside this world yet. But the two main series take up so many books that I haven’t lost all hope yet.
  3. Victoria Aveyard. Yes she has only release one series and I have yet to do the last book, but as of yet she hasn’t written a dud for me.

3 Weirdest Things Used as a Bookmark

I don’t think I use that weird things as bookmarks because I am scared of hurting my books but we shall see how I go.

  1. Another book.
  2. My phone
  3. A pillow.

3 Series Binged

So many! I like to do all the books at once, so I guess I will just put in ones that are actually a series and not a trilogy or something, and ones that I have read all the books for.

  1. Throne of Glass series by Sarah J. Maas. Yes there are going to be double ups on this list this week. I am currently binge reading this series in preparation for the final book!
  2. Vampire Academy series by Richelle Mead. I have binged this on multiple occasions.
  3. Earths Children series by Jean M. Auel. I did take a break for the last book in this series because I had lived in it for so long and there were some really just boring parts in the series, but I am glad I have finished it, even if I may never pick it up again.

And because I can’t help myself I am also going to list three manga series that I have binged.

  1. Vampire Knight by Matsuri Hino.
  2. Nana by Ai Yazawa.
  3. Ouran High School Host Club by Bisco Hatori.

3 Characters You Love

These lists are just about making readers make horrible choices.

  1. Adrian from Vampire Academy. VA is making a strong show in this tag apparently but I am not going to make that stop me from showing my love for Adrian.
  2. Wanda from The Host. I love her development and overall I think she is a great character.
  3. Rhysand from ACOTAR. Do I really need to go into why I love him?

3 Unpopular Bookish Opinions

So this one was actually harder to do than I thought it was going to be. Apparently I don’t feel like my opinions are that unpopular haha.

  1. With the exception of the third book, I actually liked the Fallen series by Lauren Kate. I remember when it came out it was surrounded by lots of hate.
  2. I don’t use libraries. I used to use them a lot and I still go in and have a look around but I never actually get anything. I didn’t like giving back the books I liked as a kid, but I don’t think that would be a problem now as an adult because I want my books to be in better condition than theirs, but now I think the issue for me would be fitting in going to the library and returning them on time into my schedule. I do want to try Overdrive though.
  3. I am not a library. I do not share books, at anytime. If I don’t want it anymore you can have it, but don’t touch the ones on my shelves.

3 Popular Bookish Opinions

Easy peesy lemon squeezey.

  1. No marking of books at any times. No dog ears, no note taking, no highlighting. Keep a journal for that.
  2. Bookstagram is addictive, and just visually displaying books in a pleasing way is just one of the many good things about books.
  3. ACOMAF is one of the best things ever written.

3 Favourite Book Covers

3 Book Goals for the Year

  1. To be more active on active on my bookish social media, including the blog and bookstragram.
  2. Read more. Pull myself out of this horrible slump that holds me.
  3. Write. Finally sit down and map out the book has been in my head for ages, and start it.

And thats it for this week. I hope you all enjoyed and if you do this tag let me know! I would love to see peoples answers.

Till Next Time. . .
