|TAG| The Christmas Song Book TAG!

Hey Guys! Here I am, back to blog in English and today I'm going to do the "Christmas Song Book Tag". This Tag was created by Hailey LeBlanc (ORIGINAL VIDEO), a really nice Canadian BookTuber. You may think it's a bit to soon too do a Christmas Tag, but I've been singing Christmas song with my choir since August and I really love the Christmas time of the year, so I thought it would be nice to do this Tag today. I'm going to write in English, because I'm going to send Hailey the link of this blog and I don't think it would make much sense if I would do this tag in German. So I apologize for every mistake I'm going to make :D



Name a villainous character you couldn't help but love.

So...I'm not going to answer "Warner", because that would be kind of an obvious decision. So I'm going with Ignifex from "Cruel Beauty". I just finished this book a few days ago, btw my review will come soon (also in English because I've to be successful in Christines "Blogging in English" challenge :D), and you may hate Ignifex, but I absolutely adored him! He was hilarious and sometimes very cute!

Which book to you most hope to see under your Christmas tree?

That's unfair! There are a bunch of books I want for Christmas (actually, my wish list includes almost 200 books :D). So this is a very difficult choice. A book I want sooo badly is  "Winter" by Marissa Meyer but this book isn't even out there. So I have to wait until NEXT YAIR! That isn't fair! But okay, Kücki, calm down, you've to name a book you want for Christmas! Okay, so I'll go with "the Madman's Daughter" by Megan Shepherd. I've heard a plenty people talked about it and it sounds really interesting (and the cover is awesome *-*), so I think this one of the books I want to see under me Christmas tree!

Name a character that overcomes major obstacles and learns to believe in themselves.

Hmmm....I think there are a lot of characters, who gets into a big character development, or at least there should be some. When I think about "character development", Juliette from the Shatter me trilogy comes to my mind. She gets through a very impressing development even if I don't like her as much as other protagonist. So I'll choose her.


a) Which character do you think would be on the top of the naughty list?
b) Which character do you think would be at the top of the nice list?

Hmmm...I have to admit that I actually like naughty character :D I think they're mostly very funny. And they often have a very sad background story which makes them quite sweet. A character who annoys a lot of people (accept me xD) is the Darkling from the Grischa trilogy (I'm currently reading it and it's fantastic!) Even if I think he's a very cool character, lots of readers hate him because he's so naughty. So I put him on the top of the naughty list (but still love him ♥ :D)

Maxon from the Selection Series might be on the top of the nice list. He's just so nice and incredible sweet; I can't imagine someone could hate him. He's nice to almost everyone, he totally loves America and...Hell yeah, he's so cute!


Which book just melts your heart

FROSTY THE SNOWMAN, WAS A JOLLY HAPPY SOUL! (We sang this song in choir this day and I can't get it out of my head!).
Okay, let's get back to the question. I want to choose a book, I absolutely loved! I cried and laughed and it was just....to much feelings! The character were just absolutely lovely and authentic, I can't help but love them all! So if you haven't read it yet, go to amazon, your book store next door or wherever you get your books and buy it! I talk about:

Choose a book that takes place in a country other than your own.

Hahahaha. Good Joke. As you can see, this question isn't very difficult to answer. Almost EVERY Book on my shelf takes place in a different country than my own.  But again, I think I'm going with the Grischa Series. This series takes place in a kind of fictional informer times Russia (I have such a big obsession with RUSSIA! ♥). I really liked the world; it was very interesting and fascinating. I mean, just look at this map and tell me you're not interested:

Which holiday themed book do you use to spread the Christmas joy?

I have to say that I usually don't read Christmas books. I mean, I read the Christmas Carol and some other classic Christmas stories, but I have not read books like "Dash and Lily" or "Let it snow". But I think this year I'm going to read "My true love gave to me". I heard nothing but good things about it. So I think it would be a good choice to introduce me in the "genre". And the UK Edition is so pretty *-*

Which fictional character would you choose to spend the holidays with (doesn't have to be a love interest!)

Although Hailey added "doesn't have to be a love interest" I think I'm going with Warner, my one and only *-* I haven't mentioned him in the rest of the Tag, so I have to choose him for this question. And, c'mon, imagine Warner with a "Christmas cap" and tell that's not incredibly cute??


Which book that you didn't like would you sacrifice to a fire to warm yourself up in the cold?

Do I really need to add something?

This book might look pretty and it might sound interesting, but trust me, it ISN'T!

 
Which book do you think everyone should read?

I listed some really good books before. You all should read Wonder, Grischa, Shatter me and Cruel Beauty. But I want to recommend another really good book to read. Although it is a very sad story, it isn't less important and heat-warming. I'm going to reread it in December. If you haven't read it yet, you really should!

  A very important book, I think it might be good to read it in class. I highly recommend it!
