I AM ALIVE, and so incredibly
sorry that I haven’t posted anything in ages. This month I started working, and
it has been just a hell a lot of stress, let me tell you. But now I am back,
and I have an awesome tag for you guys: The Mid Year Freak Out Book Tag. I hope
you enjoy it!
Here are the Questions:
1. Best book you’ve read so far in 2015.
This is really hard to decide. I have
so many favorites … but I think I might go with „Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens
Agenda“ by Becky Albertalli. This book was simply fantastic, and I am so happy
that I picked it up!
2. Best sequel you've read so far in 2015.
„Ignite Me“ by Tahereh Mafi. This book was just
fantastic (yeah, the whole series was great, but THIS BOOK). I couldn’t put it
down, nor could I think of anything else the weeks afterwards. It was fantastic!
3. New release you haven't read yet, but want to.
„The Wrath and the Dawn“ by Rene
Ahdieh; in fact, this book is already on it’s way to my house and I am so
excited to finally hold it in my hands and read it!
4. Most anticipated release for the second half of the year.
That would be either “Origin” (german
version) by Jennifer L. Armentrout or the third and final part of the Silver
trilogy by Kerstin Gier.
5. Biggest disappointment.
“Push” by Sapphire. I had to read it
for school, and I just disliked it so much, I can’t even tell you.
6. Biggest surprise.
“More happy than not” by Adam
Silvera. I mean yes, I expected that I would like it, because it deals with
very interesting topics, but this book completely blew me off. It was just
perfect and it is definitely one of my favorites of all time!
7. Favourite new author. (Debut or new to you)
I can’t choose one, so I will choose
my favorite three. Adam Silvera (More happy than not), Becky Albertalli (Simon
vs. the homo sapiens agenda) and Sabaa Tahir (An Ember in the Ashes). These are
all debut-authors but they all became my auto-buy authors, let me just tell
you!
8. Newest fictional crush.
Ohhh this one is easy. Elias from “An
Ember in the Ashes”. Did you read that book? Then you know what I mean … Elias though ...
9. Newest favourite character.
Ash from the “Iron Fey” series by Julie Kagawa. I was fascinated by Ash from the first page on, and I still really
like him as character (I am on book three of the series, and hell does he change).
10. Book that made you cry.
I think I never cried more when
reading a book than I did when reading “More happy than not” by Adam Silvera. I
even cried during the first chapter, and throughout whole part "zero" ... so that’s a
thing.
11. Book that made you happy.
I am happy and thankful to say that
there are quite a few books which made me happy this year, so I am just going
to list a few: (the obvious three first) More happy than not, Simon vs. the
homo sapiens agenda, an Amber in the Ashes, City of Heavenly Fire (indirect
happiness. The Sebastian still didn’t happen to me, what do you mean?), Eleanor and Park, The
Shatter Me series etc etc.
12. Favourite book to film adaptation you saw this year.
I think this would have to be Insurgent. I wasn’t a huge fan of the
book, but the movie was AWESOME. I can’t wait to see what they do with
Allegiant.
13. Favourite review you've written this year.
The “More happy than not” review
(wow, I mention this book a lot), I am SO SORRY, but Adam Silvera HIMSELF read
this review, and replied me on Twitter, which is still one of the best things that happened to me this year so far.
14. Most beautiful book you've bought so far this year (or received)
Aristotle and Dante discover the
secrets of the universe; this cover is just absolutely gorgeous, right? I love
it!
15. What books do you need to read by the end of the year?
The Wrath and the Dawn, The Raven
Boys, Ready Player One, The Iron Knight, Aristotle and Dante discover the
secrets of the universe, I'll give you the sun, and just so many many more!
That's it for the tag, and I tag YOU to do it! Yes you, who is reading this! :)
I promise you
guys that I will post more regularly now, especially more reviews, so look out
for that! But until then, have a great day and I will see you next time! Bye!
