Meme Book Tag

So I discovered that there is a Meme Book Tag so obviously I have to do it. This was created by two booktubers, Dylan and Saajid and I have linked both of their channels so check them out! Let's get started...

 1. Crying Kim Kardashian- A book that made you cry

 Off to a good start. No book has ever made me cry. I guess I just have a heart of steel.

 2. Salt Bae- A book that needed a little something more

 One of Us is LyingOne of Us Is Lying is the book that comes to mind. I DNFed the book so it needed something more. It was just a little cliched and I wanted more of something in those 100 pages.




3. Guy thinking- A book that made you think

 I really loved Bygone, Badass Broads. It really made me think about how we really don't see women spoke about in history and how we need more. 



Throne of Glass (Throne of Glass, #1)4. Confused guy- A book whose hype you don't understand 

 I don't really understand the hype of One of Us is Lying but I won't say that again. I guess kind of the Throne of Glass series as I only really liked Crown of Midnight but I don't really want to continue so... 



To All the Boys I've Loved Before (To All the Boys I've Loved Before, #1)5. Evil Patrick- A guilty pleasure read
To All the Boys I Loved Before. I just really liked it though...


6. Meryl Streep- A book that you're always hyping up

 Radio Silence by Alice Oseman- I love this book so much!!!!


Image result for pride & prejudice book7. Successful baby- A book that you felt accomplished after reading

 Pride & Prejudice- It took me so long to read and I didn't even like it!


Pretty Deadly, Vol. 1: The Shrike8. Pennywise- A book with a promising concept but ultimately let you down 

 Pretty Deadly Volume 1- the artwork for this is really great but the story did just let me down 


Image result for harry potter book cover9. Headphones guy- An audiobook that 
you enjoyed.

 I am not a massive audiobook reader but I have listened to the Harry Potter audiobook and I really love them.

10. Distracted guy- Two books, one you've been neglecting on your TBR for a long time and a new one that's distracting your interest


 I really want to read Leah On The Off Beat as a new book and a book that I have on my TBR for ages is Noughts and Crosses by Malorie Blackman. 

Image result for carry on rainbow rowell11. Cash me outside girl- A book that tried to be something that it's not

 Carry On by Rainbow Rowell. I just didn't like this one as much as I thought I would 


12- Dog in fire- How many unread books do you own?

 I have around 100 physical books I think. It's not too bad!
Image result for hunger games book
13. Doge- An old favourite 

 The Hunger Games- I love this series




I am not going to tag anyone as I thought that it was a bit of fun but if you want to do it feel free.

 What is your favourite meme?

If you like Stranger Things, then you will like this...

So last week, like most that have a Netflix account, I watched Stranger Things and l became hooked with it like so many other people. I know that there is a long wait before season 2 so keep you happy I thought that I could recommend things that are similar to Stranger Things, including books and movies. So let's get started... Books: North of Porter by Kirkland Ciccone Similar to the plot of Stanger Things, Porter Minister moves to a town where quite "strange things" are happening. No there is no upside down or 80s but it is still the adventure of finding people who have gone missing and aliens are involved. It is also incredibly weird (in a good way) and is definitely worth a read.  Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell Set in the 80s and full of references to comics of the time, the similarities with stranger things are there with the setting but are not with the themes. Great for people who want that 80s nostalgia after their Stranger Things binge.   ...
