This tag is a tag that mostly only BookTubers would do. I watched Jessethereader (a BookTuber) do it and it looked liked fun so I thought I might just do it on this blog. I wasn't actually tagged to do this, but I'm doing it anyway, so YOU CAN'T STOP ME!
*Warning- may contain non-obvious spoilers.*
Questions:
1.
"You're a Mean One Mr.Grinch"
Name a villainous character you couldn't help but love:
For this song I don't really have a definite answer, but I'm going to have to say Severus Snape from the Harry Potter series. Most people absolutely abhor Snape, but I just think he's really funny. He doesn't mean to be funny, it's just the way he talks and does things is kind of peculiar. And in the end, he isn't actually that bad. Another one for this song would be Draco Malfoy. I don't know. I guess his meanness gives me a reason to hate him, and for some reason I like to hate him.

"All I Want for Christmas is You"
Which book do you most hope to see under your Christmas Tree?:
I have so many books on my Christmas list this year, but in all honesty, the most anticipated one I was so excited for ever since I finished reading
Hollow City, and that is
The Library of Souls by Ransom Riggs. I am so excited to read this book. It looks awesome!
3.
"Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer"
Name a character who overcomes major obstacles and learns to believe in themselves:
The first person who comes to mind when I think of this question is Katniss Everdeen. Although she doesn't change much confidence and kindness wise, she does overcome heaps of major obstacles and has dealt with so many things. But then I think of someone like Liesel from
The Book Thief and how she had learnt so much and seen so much horror during that period of her life in Germany.
4.
"Santa Claus is Coming to Town"
a)Which character do you think would go on the top of the naughty list?
b)Which character do you think would go on the top of the nice list?
a)-Without a doubt one of the most horrible characters I have come across is Dorothy from
Dorothy Must Die. In this book, Dorothy isn't the innocent, sweet girl we all know- she's a mean, power-hungry trickster turned evil from her time spent in Oz. This girl will be at the top of the naughty list.
b)- The top of the nice list for this year goes to..... Tyson from the Percy Jackson series (specifically
Sea of Monsters, The Titan's Curse and
The Battle of the Labyrinth. I haven't read
The Last Olympian yet). Tyson is such a nice cyclops and is just an optimistic character at the best of times. He makes stuff for Percy and helps his friends out of trouble and goes with Grover in search for Pan so he wouldn't be alone and he is just a good character. Congratulations Tyson!
5.
"Frosty the Snowman"
Which book just melts your heart?:
Every time I am going to say this and it is
The Fault In Our Stars. Every time I will read this book I will cry. Every time I will love it. It pretty much melts my heart.
6.
"Feliz Navidad"
Choose a book that takes place in a country other than your own:
I am going to choose
The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. It is set in England/Narnia. It's safe to say that no, I don't live in Narnia. And yes, I kind of wish I did.
7.
"It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year"
Which holiday themed book do you use to spread the Christmas joy?:
I don't really use a book to 'spread the joy' but I am going to go with a picture book and say
The Polar Express. This book and movie has always reminded me of Christmas and I watch the movie every year and I will read the book (if I can find it).
8.
"Sleigh Ride"
Which fictional character would you choose to spend the holidays with (doesn't have to be a love interest):
I would choose Elizabeth Bennet. She is a lively character and I guess we would be doing a lot of things like picnics and going to the beach and reading together. Also, she could bring along Mr Darcy too so that would be a bonus. :)
9,
"Baby it's Cold Outside"
Which book that you didn't like would you sacrifice to a fire to warm yourself up in the cold?:
I think, for those of you who have read my blog previously, that this is obvious-
The Edge of Nowhere by Elizabeth George. You can head to my review to see what I most passionately thought about it.
10.
"Do You Hear What I Hear?"
Which book do you think everyone should read?:
There are so many choices but at the moment I would recommend
Hiding Edith by Kathy Kacer. Love this book. I have read it so many times and whenever I have run out of anything to read, this is my go to book. You can find a review for
Hiding Edith on this blog.
Lastly, I made up this one myself:
11.
"Last Christmas"
A book you received last Christmas that you loved to bits:
I received quite a few books last Christmas, but one that stands out to me is
Catching Fire in the Hunger Games box set I received. This is my FAVOURITE Hunger Games book.
Thank you for reading this long post. I tag everyone!
Zobo!
