The Things Cats Do Book Tag

Hello everybody! Today, I’m going to be doing the Things Cats Do tag, which I’ve been meaning to do since I first saw it on Aoife’s blog almost 2 years ago. Onto the post!

PURR- AS CATS DO THIS WHEN THEY’RE HAPPY OR RELAXED, WHAT IS THE BOOK THAT MAKES YOU HAPPIEST OR RELAXED?

Geek Girl hands down. So soothing and comforting; I’m actually rereading Model Misfit at time of writing this.

SLEEP- WHAT IS A BOOK THAT PUT YOU TO SLEEP OR WAS JUST BORING?

I found Two Can Keep a Secret very dull for most of it. It wasn’t exactly thrill a minute for a thriller…

TWITCH WHILE DREAMING- HAVE YOU EVER DREAMT OF A BOOK YOU READ?

No, I don’t think so. I’ve dreamt about TV series before for sure though.

SEEMS TO PLAY NICE…UNTIL THE CLAWS ARE OUT- WHICH BOOK HAD THE BIGGEST PLOT TWIST(S)?

Secret in the Stone! There were some throughout that were brilliant and then it got to the end and there were about 5 INCREDIBLE ones in very close proximity. I can’t wait for the third one in the series.

CUDDLES- WHICH BOOK CHARACTER WOULD YOU GIVE A HUG TO?

My classic answer for this is always Ade from Boy in the Tower, but I’m also going to add Cosmo from I, Cosmo because I read it very recently and I loved it so much, and both the book and it’s main character are new all time faves.

CATNIP- WHAT’S A BOOK THAT MADE YOU HAVE WARM AND FUZZY FmEELS?

I, Cosmo which I’ve mentioned above did for sure but another one I found super cosy was Lily’s Just Fine which is a really lovely romance book. And the Flatshare was very cute sometimes too!

CAT BREEDS- WHAT ARE YOUR FAVOURITE BOOKS?

I’ve got loads and I’ve mentioned a few already! Let’s go for a random selection:

• The Geek Girl series
• Boy in the Tower
• The Murder Most Unladylike series

GETTING THE CAT- HOW DID YOU FIND YOUR FAVOURITE BOOK(S).

• Geek Girl- I think I got Picture Perfect as a gift or something and so I got the first two out from the library so I could read it. I fell absolutely in love with them and I’ve read them so many times since.
• Boy in the Tower- read it because it was up for the Waterstones prize
• Murder Most Unladylike- I heard it about it via the Authors for the Philippines auction and immediately wanted to read it.

THE VET’S OFFICE- YOUR LEAST FAVOURITE BOOK:

The only book I’ve given 1 star in the past year was Yerma, so let’s say that. Everything about it annoyed me.

BEING IN PLACES THEY SHOULDN’T- LEAST FAVOURITE CLICHÉ:

I don’t hate it or anything, but I can’t think of any books I really LOVE that have enemies to lovers so I definitely don’t seem to gravitate towards it that much?

THE GOOD OLD CARDBOARD BOX- MOST UNDERRATED BOOK SERIES.

39 Clues is very underrated! Highly recommend if you’re into mystery/adventure, history, exotic settings and excellent sibling relationships in your books.
