I Should Read That Book // Book Tag!

Watch me getting ready to open up this post with the most cliché and common phrase used in the blogosphere – my tbr is getting too big.

There are hundreds of books on my tbr at this point. I’m nowhere near updating my Goodreads shelf – in fact I’m not even a quarter of the way through – and that number is increasing each and every day.

So let’s scream about it even more?? And say ‘I can’t believe I still need to get to this one!’ a few more times. Because I definitely have not said it enough.

It’s time for the I Should Read That book tag! Thanks so much to Olivia @ Purely Olivia and Audrey @ Make Your (Book)Mark for tagging me to do this!! You should definitely go and check out their blogs after reading this ;).

The Rules:

• Thank the person who tagged you and link back to their post.
• Link to the creator’s blog in your post
• Answer the questions below
• Tag 10 others to take part in the tag
• Enjoy the tag!

A book that a certain friend is always telling you to read.

My friend Mollie (who doesn’t have a blog) is constantly shouting at asking me to read Six of Crows which is her all-time favourite book and one I STILL have yet to get to. Despite everyone in the blogosphere also screaming at me to read it?!

A book that’s been on your tbr forever and yet you still haven’t read it.

Honestly, there are so so many books I could choose here but one that’s been on my tbr since I joined the blogosphere is Warcross!! It sounds so good and yet… still haven’t read it? Still??

A book in a series you’ve started, but haven’t gotten around to finishing.

This is the easiest choice and that’s the Caraval series. I NEED TO FINISH THIS SERIES. I absolutely adored Caraval and yet Legendary?? Finale?? We don’t know them.
Rumour has it books 2 and 3 are even better than book 1 too. But I wouldn’t know. BECAUSE I HAVEN’T READ THEM.

A classic you’ve always liked the sound of, but have never read.

I wasn’t in the mood for classics up until I suddenly was?? I really want to get to Pride & Prejudice as soon as I can because I really like the enemies-to-lovers trope and this is just the ultimate and original for that trope?! It’s also been so highly praised (obviously) but has really stood the test of time. Some classics can be hit or miss but I haven’t seen anyone disliking this one!

*This post was actually scheduled and since writing I’ve started this one!! Guess the guilt from the tag really motivated me?!

A popular book that it seems everyone but you has read.

Red, White and Royal Blue. Need I say more.

A book that inspired a film/TV adaptation that you really love, but just haven’t picked up yet.

I don’t think I’ve loved any tv/film adaptations recently?? Or at least not ones where I haven’t read the book. I would have said Coraline but I got to that one in August and the book was just as good as childhood me thought the film was?!
My all-time fave film adaptation though is To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before. So accurate. And so incredible. And Noah Centineo. And Lana Condor. And I can’t wait for film 2. And 3.

A book you see all over Instagram but haven’t picked up yet.

I have to admit… I haven’t gotten round to following many bookstagrams/other bookish social media so send me the names of people I need to follow!!

And those are the questions! I hope you enjoyed this tag and feel free to scream at me some more about what other books I still need to get to!!
I’m going to tag: Emma/Bruno @ A Few Chapters ‘Til Love, Malka/Chana @ Paper Procrastinators & Caitlin @ Caitlin Althea
Sorry if you’ve already done this tag, I wasn’t sure who to tag haha, so if you want to do it feel free and say I tagged you! :).

What super hyped books do you still have yet to read? Have you read any of the books I’ve mentioned? On the flip side, what hyped books have you read that didn’t live up to expectations?
