Taylor Swift Part 1 Book Tag

Hi
Sorry about the silence on here, between not feeling well and working on my IGCSE's, its been hard to find the time or energy. But today/tonight I'm back and I'm doing something exciting.
Okay maybe not exciting but its not a concert blog or a shopping haul, although I did go shopping today and well lets just say I went a tad bit over board. But hey I have pretty much completed all my christmas present shopping. Some may call it early but I call it foreward planning! But yes now I am rambling. So today I am doing the Taylor Swift Book Tag! I have before said I am, in my opinion rubbish at tags, but weirdly enough I enjoy doing them. But if they are completely rubbish do say because I won't do them again, then again I have found though that I always say that.

But yes I am doing the Taylor Swift Book Tag, this tag was created by Sarah Jane at The Book Life on YouTube. It is also in 2 parts which is also part of 'my sorry I've been silent on here' present. So this post will be up by Wednesday and then I'm going to put part 2 up by Monday. Yes I am going for a bit of structure and organization, wish me luck! So this tag is the names of the songs from Taylor Swift's Red album and you have to pick a book that relates to it. I am just putting it out there that I am sure most people have done this tag (I am just late to the party, as usual) and I also can't think of anyone to tag, well more like I don't know anyone to tag, so if you want to do this tag, feel free.
Hope you enjoy.

Question 1
We are never ever ever getting back together. - Pick a book or series that you were pretty sure you were in love with but then you wanted to break up with.
Okay this is a toughie, but i'm going to have to say the Hush Hush series by Becca Fitspatrick.

Now I read this series not long after Twilight and I was not as, how do I put this, well read. If that makes sense, I mean in the sense I hadn't read many books that weren't Cathy Cassidy books. Yes I loved those books and would like to reread them one day. Now i'm going off topic, nice move Sophie. So I read Hush Hush, Crescendo and Silence and by the time I had finished Silence I was getting into books like The Hunger Games. I really liked the way Silence finished and my Aunt, who actually had read the books and recomended them to me, and I didn't think there was another book coming, we thought the series was finished. Foreward about a year or two and there is a 4th book which is called Finale. I just didn't see the need for it and I have actually tried to re read them but I feel now I am older and have read a ton more books since that I just don't love it like I used to. I probably will finish the series and read Finale as I do actually own it but just not anytime in the near future.

That was long winded.

Question 2
Red - A book with a red cover.
Dreamless by Josephine Angelini. 

I love this book, I love this series. Its one of my all time favourite series. Its the second book in the Starcrossed trilogy. If you like Gods and Goddesses and Greek mythology, this is a good series. Especially if you like a romantic element as well.

Question 3
The Best Day - A book that makes you feel nostalgic.
Okay I have two choices for this and my first one would have to be Twilight.

Sorry about the cover looking so tatty,
 the plastic cover has pretty much all come off ,
leaving it looking quite battered. 

 Yes I love twilight. Yes I know a lot of people hate it but for me Twilight has, I dont want to use the cliche term of changed my life but it sort of has. I found my favourite band ever, Paramore through it. I now go to premieres because of it and have met people who without this book series I never would have met. In that sense it makes me feel nostalgic and also I have never really since marathoned a set of books (and the movies) quite like I did with The Twilight Saga. Also it has given my aunt and I a common interest and it bought us closer

My second choice is any Cathy Cassidy book.

These are probably all of my favourite Cathy Cassidy books.

 This was the first set of books that I really fell in love with and really gave me a love for reading. Like I said in the first question I would love to one day go back and reread those books because they are for me what made me fall in love with reading and very nostalgic for me. Some people had Harry Potter, I had Cathy Cassidy books.

Question 4
Love Story - A book with forbidden love.
Okay this is going to go along with my answer to question 2. 

My answer is Starcrossed by Josephine Angelini.

 I love the romance in this book, how at first the two love interests hate each other and then they love each other. Now before you worry that there is some insta-love going on, that is not the case. I dont want to spoil the book if you have yet to read it, but it has a lot to do with greek mythology. I love this book series.

Question 5
I knew you were trouble - A book with a bad character that you couldn't help but love.
Again I have two choices and I feel like if you have seen my GoodReads posts, you will know who they are.  They are Luca from Vendetta and The Darkling from The Grisha Trilogy.

 I just love them, I don't care that one is the under boss of his family's clan in the Mafia and the other is  power crazed and hell bent on ruling the land and getting revenge on everyone. Y'know what I think that's what I like, the fact they are quite dark. And I'm not apologizing for it! Haha!

Question 6
Innocent - Pick a book that someone ruined the ending for
Allegiant. 

I mean I was spoiled for the big Tris spoiler and I was devastated. So much so I actually put of reading it until this year. So I was on twitter one day after Allegiant had been released and I saw it, the spoiler and just was like no, that doesnt really happen does and I saw it again and again so I knew it was true. So now if theres a book being released that I don't want to be spoiled on I either don't go on twitter until I have read said book or limit my twitter time.

Question 7
Everything Has Changed - A character who goes through extensive development.

This character I feel I don't talk about enough is Sophie (Persephone) from Vendetta. 

I feel at the start of the book she is lost because her father is in jail for murder. Herself and her mother are outcasted due to that and she only has one friend. I mean don't get me wrong I think she is confident in herself and with her life. By the end of the book Sophie is mature but still lost but in a different sense. Lost because everything she thought was the truth is actually lies. I also feel she is brave and strong especially in the last half of the book. I also like the character development of Mr Darcy in Pride and Prejudice. Just thought I'd add that in hehe.

Question 8
You belong with me - Your most anticipated book release.
Does this really need an answer because I feel like everyone can guess this but it would have to be, the one book I have ever pre ordered, Inferno by Catherine Doyle.

Question 9
Forever and Always - Your favourite book couple.
Now I have two choices for this and I feel like one of these is a modern choice and the other is more of a classic choice. So my modern choice is Belly and Conrad from The Summer I Turned Pretty Trilogy. 

I love Belly and Conrad, because I feel its just really lovely and to be honest I didn't like Jeremiah. I thought Conrad really loved Belly although he may not have gone about it the right way, It almost broke my heart when Conrad said he loved Belly.  Yeah I'm getting way to into this.
My classic couple is Mr Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet from Pride and Prejudice. 

I feel from the moment they meet you can tell these two were meant for each other. The debate and sparring between them, heightens the feeling of these two are a match intellectually, mentally and physically. Once the whole Mr Wickham drama is out the way and they finally engage in friendly manners it is apparent that these two make an amazing partnership and marriage.

Final Question!!!
Question 10

Come back, be here - A book least likely to be lent out for fear of missing it too much.

I think this question would be easier if I said the books that I would lend out. Haha. I dont really lend my books out for a few reasons other then missing them on my bookshelf, I don't want people to destroy my book or incase I never get it back. But also because I don't have many people to lend books to really. But the books I would never lend out are Vendetta, the divergent series( especially as I have a copy of insurgent which is signed), The Grisha Trilogy, The Lunar Chronicles, The Starcrossed series, The Angel Fire Series, The Hunger Games Trilogy, The Twilight Saga ( because one of my Breaking Dawn copies is signed), Daughter of Smoke and Bones Trilogy, Pride and Prejudice and finally, The Summer I Turned Pretty Trilogy and The Fault in Our Stars. Like I said It would have been easier naming the books I don't mind lending out, although a lot of that list I don't like lending out because they are either signed or are quite rare covers that aren't really available any more.

Phew that was a lot of questions, I hope you enjoyed it, I did. Lol.
I am aiming to have the part 2 to this tag up next Sunday-Monday, I hope.
Now since I haven't been feeling great, it has taken a knock on my reading so I am still reading Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor. I must admit I love that book, its so beautifully written and the world building is amazing. I will then move on to Throne of Glass by Sarah J Maas.
Also on a book note, I now have my tickets for YALC (Young Adult Literature Convention) at London Film and Comic Con next year. I am so excited for it as I had a day ticket this year but it clashed with my library volunteering so I couldn't go. I am going with my mum and my brother, as he's always saying he wants to come on what my mum calls 'our little jollies, so now he is. I also want to try and start collecting the Funko Pop Heads so I'm hoping to find those at LFCC. If you are interested in attending YALC or LFCC, here's the link for tickets - http://www.londonfilmandcomiccon.com/index.php
Also on a book note I have signed up to a book subscription service called Illumicrate. Now Illumicrate is where you get a box of bookish goodies, they are also based in the UK. So if you are from the UK and sign up for Illumicrate, you can get free postage which is one of the reasons why I have never bought a subscription box before because the postage and customs would just be too much. If you would like to find out more about Illumicrate and maybe buy a subscription, here's the link - http://www.illumicrate.com/
So I hope you enjoyed this post, keep an eye out for part 2 on Monday.
So until then.
Thanks for reading,
Sophie
