Hello everybody!
Since it’s Valentine’s Day tomorrow, I thought it would be fun to do the Valentine’s Day Book Tag, which was created by CC’s Books. Onto the post!
1.) Stand Alone Book You Love
I won’t mention my favourite MG standalone ever as I want to use it for another question! Other MG I love Are Running on and Being Miss Nobody, and a YA standalone I thought was especially impressive is the Art of Being Normal. I love others too, such as Lobsters or Unboxed or Simon Vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda.
2.) Dystopian Book You Love
I’m not really a fan of this genre if I’m honest, and I tend to steer clear of it nowadays. That said, Boy in the Tower, my favourite MG standalone ever, does have some dystopian elements. I don’t really class it as that as it’s so hopeful and optimistic and Ade is a darling, but it answers this.
3.) A Book That You Love But No One Else Talks About
Um, Boy in the Tower is my go to for this, and Polly Ho Yen’s other book Fly Me Home also receives nowhere near the amount of love it deserves. I also love the 39 Clues series, and Adventure Island, which are now a bit older and also aren’t talked about often! I’ve actually been considering starting a series of posts about underrated books; would you read that?
4.) Favorite Book Couple
I wrote a full post about my top 5 a few weeks ago, but my ultimate favourite is of course Harriet and Nick from Geek Girl.
5.) Book That Other People Love But You Haven’t Read Yet
I think I have to go for the Northern Lights trilogy for this one, mainly for the sheer AMOUNT of people who adore them. I feel so scared to dive into them đŸ™ˆ
6.) A Book With Red on the Cover
The first that springs to mind is Cherry Crush by Cathy Cassidy, which even has a shade of red in the title! It’s the first in the Chocolate Box Girls series and it’s narrated by Cherry as she moves in with the Tanberry family and her life totally changes.
7.) A Book With Pink on the Cover
I feel as though there are hardly any pink covers now. I’ll say Being Miss Nobody, and another I recently read was the Lights Under the Lake.
8.) You were given a box of chocolate what fictional boyfriend/ or girlfriend would given them to you.
Nick from Geek Girl or Sirius Black.
9.) You are Single on Valentines Day. What Book would you read? What TV show would you watch? What Movie would you watch?
I have no idea what I’ll be reading (though it coincides with my half term break so I should hopefully swallow a book in the day) or watching (again, I would like to watch at least one film as I’m off! Maybe Pretty in Pink for cosy romance vibes?)
10.) You are in the Book Store. All of a Sudden you get shot with an arrow by Cupid. What New Release will you love?
A book released just before this is due to go up (I am writing this in the past!) that I am 99.99% sure I will love is A Spoonful of Murder by Robin Stevens. I am a HUGE Wells and Wong fan and it has been too long since Mistletoe and Murder đŸ˜
Thank you so much for reading! I won’t tag anyone as this is somewhat seasonal, but if you feel like having a go please send me a link as I’d love to read it! Let me know what you think of my answers down below or on Twitter @GoldenBooksGirl, and if the underrated books I love series of posts would be of interest.

What a fun tag, how interesting to relate it to Valentine’s Day! I’m slightly ashamed to say that I don’t recognise many of the books or characters but one thing I will say to you: do dive into the Northern Lights trilogy, they are quite unputdownable and are all amazing. If you ever saw that atrocious Golden Compass film, please forget it. Except for the Ice Bears, they were fab! Lovely post! xx
