rachel @ Artistically Reading2 Comments

Dear reader,

This tag was originally created by Book Break on Youtube! You can find the original post here.

I wasn’t directly tagged to do this 😳 but this tag sounded fun and I wanted to join in!!
Spring is my favorite season, so I’m so excited to do this tag!!

☼ 1) How do you decorate your bookshelves?

I love decorating my shelves with small plants or mugs!!! I also organize by color which in itself I kind of think as a decoration!

☼ 2) Recommend a book with beautiful descriptions of nature

Hmmm.. I feel like I don’t have very many recommendations for this, but I remember thinking of a lot of nature when I read “The Cruel Prince” by Holly Black

☼ 3) Show us a book with a beautiful cover

Oh there are so many beautiful covers out there! Recently I’ve been obsessed with these three!

☼ 4) Spring is all about new starts so it’s the perfect time to start a new series: what would you recommend?

This is one of my all time favorite sci-fi series!!

☼ 5) It’s almost time to start reading outside—have you been brave enough yet?

I absolutely love reading outside, but the thought to take my book outside rarely crosses my mind!!

☼ 6) Spring cleaning—which books are you unhauling?

I don’t typically unhaul books, so I don’t have a list of any to get rid of right now

☼ 7) And which books are you going to replace them with?

☼ 8) Who do you tag?

I tag anyone who sees this and wants to join!!

The New Year’s Book Tag | 2021

rachel @ Artistically Reading3 Comments

Dear reader,

Happy New Year!!! Let’s all hope that 2021 will turn out better than 2020 did!

Anyways I saw this tag floating around and thought it would be fun to do!! This tag was created by the amazing booktuber Bookables, (so full credit to her!) if you haven’t checked her out you definitely should!!

Without further ado, heres the tag!

How many books are you planning to read in 2021?

Every year I always try to read 100 books and I have yet to fail that goal since I set it, so I hope to read 100+ again this year! 🤞

Name 5 books that you didn’t get to this year but want to make a priority in 2021.

There are so many I planned on reading and just didn’t get to, but I think the ones that stick out the most are probably: Six of Crows, A Court of Thorns & Roses, On The Come Up, Leah on the Offbeat, and Children of Blood & Bone.

What genre do you want to read more of?

I read a wide variety of genres already, however I would love to read more horror! I typically only read a handful every year, but I always end up loving the ones I pick up!!

What’s a book you’ve had forever that you still need to read?

Oh my gosh there’s so many!! Red Queen is one I’ve had for probably two years and I still haven’t gotten to it! 😳

One word that your hoping 2021 will be.

After the year we’ve all had, I just hope 2021 will be peaceful!

Tag a friend!

I will be tagging anyone who wants to participate in this tag!

Yours truly,

Rachel

I Love Spring Book Tag

rachel @ Artistically ReadingLeave a comment

☼ 1) How is Spring where you live?

RAINY! It rains almost everyday.

☼ 2) Most anticipated book release this Spring?

I have so many, but here are just a few!

“Let Me Hear a Rhyme” by Tiffany D. Jackson

“Wicked Saints” by Emily A. Duncan

“Aurora Rising” by Amie Kaufman & Jay Kristoff

☼ 3) Show us a book cover that makes you think of Spring.

I’ve always thought “Everything, Everything” by Nicola Yoon was a very spring looking cover

☼ 4) What are you going to read this Spring?

I don’t know. I’m SUCH a mood reader and never really stick to a set tbr, so I usually pick up what sounds most interesting to me at the moment! Here’s the tbr I’m currently trying to stick to! Click here

☼ 5) Find a cover with the sun on it!

I actually had trouble thinking of a book with a sun on it. “History Is All You Left Me“

☼ 6) What are your favorite Spring reads?

I’m not a seasonal reader at all, but if I had to choose it would probably be YA contemporary. ��

☼ 7) Find a book with many different colors on it!

“Little Do we know” is a book I’ve never actually read, but am so interested to read it!

☼ 8) Whom do you tag?

If you see this, consider yourself tagged!
