The idea for this book tag came from Mogsy at https://bibliosanctum.com/ who sort of borrowed and adapted an idea from https://bionicbookwormblog.wordpress.com/ . I saw this tag on Barb's blog at http://bookertsfarm.blogspot.com/ and decided I had to give it a go. Why not join in too? Don't forget to let us know if you do it so we can come and see your answers!
This was way harder than I was expecting so creative cheating was employed!I had so many favourites for the same darn letter that it drove me mad having to choose!
A-A Storm of Swords part 2
I wanted to have more than one Westeros offering but I had to choose between A Storm of Swords and A Dance With Dragons which seems a bit unfair!
B-The Boleyn Inheritance
Choosing between several for B, I had to go with this one about three Tudor women in the scandal of the Court-Anne of Cleves, Katherine Howard and Jane Rochford. Loved it!
C-Countdown to Armageddon
This was such a great apocalypse book! I loved following the characters as they prepared for a disaster that could hit any day and then having to deal with the disaster itself.
D-Deathly Hallows (Harry Potter and the...)
Yes I cheated and I don't care! There was something already picked for H so I had to do this! I loved the entire series but this book had everything. I cried, I cheered, I loved it!
E-Exodus
I had three E's that I wanted to pick here! I had to go with this, book five of the Arisen zombie series as it has the biggest zombie battle ever and was my favourite in the series so far.
F-Final Dawn
Another from Darrell Maloney. Imagine you won the lottery on the same day you discovered an asteroid heading for Earth. How do you prepare for disaster? Loved this book!
G-The Gathering Dead
This was another great start to a zombie series-one of the many I still have to finish. Next year will be the year of the series catchup I think!
H-The Hunger Games
Another series that I really want to do a re-read of! I loved this trilogy!
I-It
My favourite ever book just has to be in there!
J-Jurassic Park
I read this book after I saw the film and enjoyed it a lot. It's another one I want to re-read so I can write a better review!
K-Kitty's House of Horrors
My favourite book in a very enjoyable series.
L-Lord of Misrule
I very much enjoyed this whole series and this was one of my favourite books. I loved seeing the human and vampire enemies working together against a new bad guy.
M-Master of None
This is another excellent urban fantasy series and I've loved the first two books, and look forward to reading the third soon!
N-No Way Down
This was the first book I read about a disaster on K2 and I was gripped by it.
O-The Other Boleyn Girl
The first ever book I read about The Tudors and it got me totally hooked. I love the scandal, the plotting, the King and his wives and mistresses!
P-Plague Of The Dead
The first book in a fantastic fast paced zombie trilogy. Since the author's death, more books have been added but I liked how book three finished and I'll leave it at that!
Q-The Queen'sMistake
I've literally just finished this book in time to add it to the list! Catherine Howard makes me sad and mad in equal measures but she is fascinating!
R-The Return Man
There were quite a few choices for R and it was hard to pick!
S-Swamp Monster Massacre
How was I meant to pick between this and Salechii??? Not fair!
T-The Extinction Trials
This was such a fun dinosaur trilogy!
U-Unleashed
This is book one in the Voodoo Plague zombie series and it was a great read!
Dinosaur Game Show...what could possibly go wrong???
W-Borrowed World
Yes I'm cheating again but I don't care! This was the first prepper fiction book I read and it scared me into prepping myself!
X-Extinction Horizon
Another slight cheat here but never mind. I loved this mutated human zombie style series and there is a new series of it starting years after the war ends!
Y-The Yeti
Another horror author that I really enjoy! Nice to fit him in the list.
Z-Zombie Crusade
There seems to be a lot of zombies in my list! What a shame! I've read the first book and a few short stories and want to complete this next year.
So glad you did this one and yep, I employed creative cheating as well. I also love coming to your blog and seeing different books. So refreshing. So are you excited about the new Hunger Games Prequel that is in the works since you enjoyed it so much. I figure people have mixed emotions about it.
ReplyDeleteI think our creative cheating was pretty good overall! I'm pretty happy at the thought of more Hunger Games if it is well written of course! Some of these work but others can be really bad!
DeleteThere are a lot of really good ones!
ReplyDeleteMaking some of the choices was really hard!
DeleteFun! I need The Yeti. Like, yesterday haha. And I really wish more people were reading The Extinction Trials! I loved those.
ReplyDeleteCountdown to Armageddon sounds great too.
Everyone needs a Yeti in their life! I had to get creative to get the Extinction Trials in there! It was really hard to choose between favourites!
DeleteGood on you!! I don't think I could do this one. I forget a lot of what I read lol
ReplyDeleteKaren @ For What It's Worth
I use my Goodreads shelves to help me choose! My memory isn't the greatest at times!
DeleteWhat a great list of books! I've either read them...or want to read them. :)
ReplyDeleteIt has made me want to get reading those Darrell Maloney series! That will be priority next year!
DeleteI've re-read The Hunger Games twice I believe, it will always be a favorite!
ReplyDeleteI want to read it again and I have the audio cds to listen to. Once I tame this TBR there will be plenty of re-reads!
DeleteI'm glad you enjoyed doing this little exercise! It wasn't completely my idea, as I borrowed and adapted it from Top 5 Tuesdays, but I had fun because I love making lists :D Some very interesting books you have on here!
ReplyDelete~Mogsy @ BiblioSanctum
This was a lot of fun! The only problem is that it makes me want to do a list of my favourite 50 and 100 books! NOOOOO!
DeleteI read IT when it first came out and a couple of times since. One of his scariest! And I loved The Hunger Games series too! I spy a couple here that I need to check out. You always add to my list. LOL
ReplyDeleteI love IT so much! I still haven't watched either of the films but they look scary!
Deleteall i can do is look at all those beauties and think, which would i grab first. lol
ReplyDeletesherry @ fundinmental
That's exactly what I think when I see all those gorgeous unread books on my bookshelves!!!
