The Joy of Christmas Book Tag

I wasn’t tagged for this, I just wanted to do a Christmas-y book tag. I found it on Youtube and it was created by Samantha at Novels and Nonsense.

Anticipation: The Christmas excitement is real, what book release(s) are you most anticipating?

Wires and Nerve: Vol. 2 by Marissa Meyer

I decided to pick a January release that I’m excited for and even though there are at least four, I went with Meyer. Of course.

Christmas Songs & Carols: What book or author can you not help but sing it’s praises?

There are so many of them, but obviously first to my mind is always J.K. Rowling. Then I usually push Cassie Clare on urban fantasy lovers, Sarah J Maas, Leigh Bardugo, Susan Dennard and Sabaa Tahir on fantasy lovers and Rick Riordan on the more middle-grade/ya straddling comedy/fantasy lovers. I could go on.

Gingerbread Houses: What book or series has wonderful world building?

The Shades of Magic Trilogy by V.E. Schwab

Have you read it? She’s brilliant and puts to much thought into her worlds.

A Christmas Carol: Favorite classic or one that you want to read

My favourite classic is my complete collection of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle – but I have a long list of classics that I would like to read. First might be the many Shakespearean plays that I haven’t yet read.

Christmas Sweets: What book would you love to receive for Christmas

Oh I have a few on my list, but probably Renegades by Marissa Meyer.

Candles in the Window: What book gives you that warm fuzzy feeling

A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas

Oh wait, you didn’t mean that warm fuzzy feeling? Haha. Well…. get that means I can’t pick City of Bones by Cassandra Clare either.

Christmas Trees & Decorations: What are some of your favorite book covers?

I love the covers for An Ember in the Ashes and a Torch Against the Night by Sabaa Tahir.

Christmas Joy: What are some of your favorite things about Christmas And/Or some of your favorite Christmas memories?

The lights and spending time with my family.

Tag!

I know it’s really busy this time of year, so if you like this tag and want to do it – feel free to, I tag you! But I don’t want anyone to feel pressured to get it done if I tag them.
