Taylor Swift Book Tag


I love Taylor Swift and have loved her and her music for several years now. I am very happy that Carrie @ The Book Goddess tagged me in the TAYLOR SWIFT BOOK TAG, so thanks Carrie! There are some Taylor Swift songs in this tag and I will be picking books to go with them all. This should be fun! I will list my favorite Taylor Swift (aka T. Swizzle) songs at the bottom of this post as well. Maybe you want to listen to the songs while you read this post...you know?

We Are Never Getting Back Together

Pick a book or series you were pretty sure you were in love with, but then wanted to break up with. 

Must I even explain this one....Divergent was great, Insurgent was dull, and I have no urge to even pick up Allegiant.



Red

Pick a book with a red cover

BAM! It has red and it's probably one of my favorite books of the year.




The Best Day

Pick a book that makes you feel nostalgic.

Fox in Socks is my favorite Dr. Seuss book by far! I remember asking my dad to read this book to me almost every night when I was little. Every single time we read it, I would pretty much die of laughter during my favorite parts.




I Knew You Were Trouble

Pick a bad character you couldn't help but love 

I would not exactly call Raskolnikov from Crime and Punishment a bad character but....he did murder a woman with an axe (ouch!) and he felt no guilt about it. Well either way, I still really liked him as a character and I found myself hoping the police would not be able to catch him and throw him in jail.




Innocent

Pick a book someone ruined the ending for

Just...no




Everything Has Changed

Pick a character from a book who goes through extensive character development.

I'd say Scout from To Kill a Mockingbird goes through a lot of character development. At the beginning of the book she was very naive and innocent, but as time went on she grew more aware and mature. This is one of the reasons why I absolutely love this book.




You Belong With Me

Pick your most anticipated book release.


For those of you who know I have an obsession for Percy Jackson and a love for Rick Riordan books, this should not come as a surprise. I mean come on, I don't think you can convince me that you are not excited for Magnus Chase. I just won't believe you.



Forever and Always

Pick your favorite book couple.

Percy and Annabeth of course!




Shake it Off

Pick a book that you love so much, you just shake off the haters.

Yeah so don't even try to say anything bad about Percy Jackson to me because we will literally fight. No I'm kidding guys but...just don't even try it. We will not be friends, so if you have an issue just keep it to yourself. Thank you. (Did you feel that sass?)




Blank Space

Pick the most over-hyped book or series that didn't work for you at all.

Everyone seems to adore The Great Gatsby and I was so excited to finally get to read it last year. Then I actually read it and it could not have been over soon enough. This book is less than 200 pages long, but it just kept dragging on and I was just sitting there thinking "When is it going to end???" I did not care about a single character, the romance was pathetic, and the ending was a relief because it was finally over. Ok that's a little harsh, but can someone please explain to me what all the hype is about because I just don't get it AT ALL.




Invisible

Pick the most under-hyped book or series that you think deserves the spotlight.

The Stolen Empire Series by Sherry D. Ficklin is so good! It's a historical fiction young adult novel with romance, politics, and action. Please go read it right now! Then after you are hooked, come back and discuss it with me. You're welcome.




The Story Us

Pick a couple you think should end up together

For this one I pick Cassia and Xander. I don't even know why Ky was so special and I liked Xander a lot better than him. I mean his name is even cooler than Ky's but that's besides the point. To be honest, I did not think Matched by Ally Condie was that great of a book anyway.





Love Story

Pick a forbidden love in a book or series.

Hence the title, Forbidden by Tabitha Suzuma is a book about forbidden love. I have not read this book yet but I really want to.

I was so upset when someone ruined the ending for allegiant! Percy Jackson is SUCH a good series, I don't understand why some people judge me for it.

Yeah, getting spoiled for Allegiant is the worst! Percy Jackson is one of the best middle grade series out there, so people need to stop complaining. Thanks for commenting Emily.
Finally someone else who also doesn't like The Great Gatsby. Like I honestly don't understand why people love this book so much.

Yes! I am so glad that I am not the only one. I just don't get what is so good about the book.
I love how many Rick Riordan books you put into this list, I adored them all as well! I started a few pages of The Great Gatsby, and I honestly wasn't enjoying it either. Since it was free ebook, I didn't feel bad about not finishing it, no matter how short. Great list!

I am so glad you like Rick Riordan's books too! Trust me. You did not miss anything by not finishing The Great Gatsby.
Ah I love this tag! So much fun. :P

I haven't read any Riordan books yet...*hides* He was after my "Middle Grade" time, and I haven't picked them up yet. I seriously know I need to though! Everyone seems to love them and I want to know what all of the hype is about.

Omg I really want you to read them and I hope you read them soon Sydney! I'm pretty sure you will love them. Also, this tag really is fun. I enjoyed doing it.
This is a fun tag. I might actually do one!

OMG I love Great Gatsby, one of my favorite classics. Allegiant was spoiled for me as well, and I still bought it!

Lol so many people love it and I just do not seem to get it. Maybe my expectations were too high. I feel like A LOT of people were spoiled for Allegiant which is sad. I am still a little curious to read it and see exactly how it all plays out but it is not a priority.
Love the books!
Thanks again for the tag! :)
So excited to do it!

No problem Jen! I am looking forward to seeing your post.
I am not a huge Taylor Swift fan but I love this tag! I think spoiling the ending for Allegiant is so sad, but it is one that is often spoiled! Which makes a lot of people not likely to read it then... I love Percy Jackson and agree with you - who can say anything bad about those wonderful books?
1 reply · active 503 weeks ago
Yes Percy Jackson is amazing! I can't believe some people actually hate on the book.
Magnus Chase!! I just need NEED to have this book in my hands already!! I just *tries to grab cover through screen*

Ugh yes same Gabi! It feels like I have been waiting so long for that book and I need it now.
I'm with you on The Great Gatsby. Just doooon't get it.

I am so glad that I am not the only one. I just could not see what was so great about the book.
