Happy Friday Bookish People! I hope you’re all having a good day today. It is nearly Halloween! Do you do anything to celebrate? I don’t but I love seeing people in costumes, where I live there are lots of kids on the street so I hear them laughing and it is nice to hear them enjoying themselves.
As Halloween is so close I thought it would be fun to do a short Halloween Book Tag, I found this tag on spaceandsorcery.wordpress.com so go check out how they answered the tag.
1. Carving pumpkins: What book would you carve up and light on fire
It has to be Ulysses by James Joyce. I had to read it for University and I hated every minute of it, it is a large book and the plot did not hook my interest but the worst part of it is that for a big section of it there is absolutely no punctuation.
2. Trick or treat: A character who is a treat and one who is a trick
I am going to cheat a little bit here and pick a character who can be a trick and a treat depending on his mood and that is Jacks the Prince of Hearts from Stephanie Garber’s Once Upon A Broken Heart series.
3. Candy Corn: What book is always sweet?
I decided to go with the Lady in the Tower by Marie Louise Jenson and I love this book, the spine is cracked terribly because of how many times I have read it.
4. Ghosts: A character you would like to visit you as a ghost?
It was tough choice between Thomas Cresswell from the Stalking Jack the Ripper series by Kerri Maniscalco, one of my favourite male leads from any book or Reichus from Spellslinger by Sebastien de Castell which is a squirrel cat creature.
5. Dressing in Costume: A character you would want to be for a day.
Scarlett from Caraval by Stephanie Garber, I actually have dressed as her before to go to Comic Con.
6. Wizards and Witches: Your favourite Harry Potter moment
This would be the fight scene in the Order of the Pheonix
7. Blood and gore: A book so creepy you had to take a break
The Devil makes Three by Tori Bovalino, seriously if you like creepy books this is one to read.
