Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag

5 books to read in the summer (1)

I was actually tagged to do this, yaaay! I was tagged by these lovelies, Rea and Angharad, thank you so much! I think I’m actually the last one of all my friends to do it, so if you’re reading this and you want to do the tag, I tag you!

Now let’s get into it:

1.BEST BOOK YOU’VE READ SO FAR IN 2017

29385546

This is a very, very difficult choice. I read so many great books, and they’re all special in a certain way, but one that striked me as an absolute favorite was Warcross by Marie Lu. This book was so perfect in so many ways *crying*.

2. YOUR FAVORITE SEQUEL OF 2017

30312891

Thought I loved Lady Midnight, I adored Lord of Shadows. It just felt so good to be reunited with the Shadowhunter world, and all the characters are just so damn perfect.

3. A NEW RELEASE YOU HAVEN’T READ BUT WANT TO

32333174

I just received this book the other day and I can’t wait to read it!! Since I read the synopsis, I think about this book… everyday.

4. MOST ANTICIPATED RELEASE FOR THE SECOND HALF OF THE YEAR  340769523338522932766747

These are probably my most anticipated releases but to be honest, I’m excited for a very large number of books… BYE MONEY.

5. YOUR BIGGEST DISAPPOINTMENT

31449227

You can find my review of this book here, where I explain why this book was such a huge disappointment.

6. BIGGEST SURPRISE OF THE YEAR

29102896

I had so much prejudices for this one, but it definitely suprised me, since it became one of my favorite reads of this year. You can find my review here.

7. FAVE NEW TO YOU OR DEBUT AUTHOR

28220826

Since I’m very new to all these books, even the popular ones (I stopped reading for a year, I was in a very bad place), all authors are kinda new to me, but Anna-Marie McLemore really striked me as an amazing writer, so she earned this place.

8. YOUR NEW FICTIONAL CRUSH

30312891

I don’t often have a crush on a character, and this year I didn’t really find my n°1 fictional crush, but Julian Blackthorne earned his place in my heart.

9. NEW FAVORITE CHARACTER

23437156

Basically everyone in this book.

10. A BOOK THAT MADE YOU CRY

31931941

I cried a lot because of books this year, but one that has a special place in my heart is Eliza and her Monsters, because it has great depression rep. You can find my review here.

11. A BOOK THAT MADE YOU HAPPY

19547856

Simon and Blue are my OTP. I love them so so much.

12. FAVE BOOK TO MOVIE ADAPTATION YOU’VE SEEN THIS YEAR

Résultat de recherche d'images pour "hidden figures"

I actually haven’t read the book, but this movie was soooo good.

13. FAVE BOOK POST PUBLISHED THIS YEAR

Why is diversity important? by Fadwa

Why Non-Canon Hurts by Rea

Your Fav is Problematic, Now What? by Rea

 

14. MOST BEAUTIFUL BOOK YOU’VE BOUGHT/RECEIVED

24763621

Did I bought this book because of the cover? The answer is yes :))

15. WHAT ARE THE BOOKS YOU NEED TO READ BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR? 

2928388432333174311232492501411413455782

These books are strictely from my immediate TBR… Otherwise the list would be way too long.

  1. I’ve been reading Warcross for the past couples of weeks but I can’t seem to get into it. I think it’s the romance I see brewing. I hope I end up feeling the same way as you did after reading it though!
    I’m dying to get my hands on a copy of Eliza and Her Monsters when I get more book money. I’m glad you liked it 😊.

    • Please, pleaaaaase keep reading, you will not be disappointed !! (Well I hope 😂).
      And I can’t wait for you to read Eliza and Her Monsters, it was so so good, and it has great depression rep (from my point of view).
      Anyway my point is READ THOSE TWO BOOKS.

  2. Isn’t the writing in When The Moon Was Ours GORGEOUS. I cannot wait to read her next book, even though I’m actually anticipating her second-to-next book more.

    I am also really looking forward to The Library of Fates and Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virture. Avery (from The Book Deviant) is totally hyping the second book, so I have very high hopes.

    • I’m really hyped for Wild Beauty!!
      And I started reading The Gentleman’s Guide To Vice And Virtue the other day and so far it’s really good!! Seems funny and cute but people are telling me that it’s also deep so it’s seems like a great book! 😊

  3. I can’t wait to read Warcross, I have heard nothing but great things about it. I’m a bit nervious about Lord of Shadows, but I don’t know why, I loved Lady Midnight and I have heard that the sequel is even better so I have no reason to be, but that’s the reason I haven’t read it yet.
    Also, totally agree with you about Anna-Marie McLemore. She is a brilliant writer and I can’t wait to read her next book, Wild Beauty, which is my most anticipated book of the second half of 2017.

    • Lord of Shadows is really good, better than Lady Midnight! Maybe you’re afraid to read it because everyone says it’s good you’re scared you won’t like it haha

  4. Oh I really cannot wait to hear yout thoughts in Shatter Me! It’s such a hit/miss book–either you will love it or you will hate it. I hope you love it though because it is one of my favorite series of all time.
    I haven’t read War Cross but it definitely sounds interesting! The only Marie Lu book I have read is The Young Elites and it is amazing 😍 Have you read it?
    Fun tag. Think I might do it next week!

    • I hope I’ll like the Shatter Me series haha! I heard that the first book was the worst one so hopefully I’ll be able to read past this one!
      And after reading Warcross I bought all of Marie Lu’s books haha so now I have to read them!
