Plot twist that totally caught you off guard

Prettiest Up-Do / Bun
A book or author with the most elegant prose
Princess: Princess Tiana! I love the The Princess and The Frog. So elegant and gorgeous!
Book: To Kill A Mockingbird, by Harper Lee. I was assigned to read this book during the summer before ninth grade, and I fell in love. It’s one of several books that I strive to re-read every year.
—
Most Bounce / Body
Book that bounces between multiple time periods
Princess: Ariel, hands down! So beautiful.

Favorite plot with multiple story-lines that are woven together
Princess: Elsa!

Short & Sweet
A book that’s short and sweet
Princess: Mulan! One of my favorite princesses of all-time.
Book: The Great Gatsby, by F. Scott Fitzgerald. This is another book that I typically re-read every year.
—
Nicest Half-Up / Half-Down
A book / character that you had a lot of ups and downs with
Princess: Belle! I love Beauty and the Beast!
Book: Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows, by J.K. Rowling. Such a good book, but it was also the end of the epic series that defined a good portion of my childhood and my life!
—
Medium & Manageable
The last book you felt right in the middle about
Princess: I’m running out of princesses! I think Moana is the best pick for this one.
Book: Small Town, by Lawrence Block. A good read, but also long, heavy, and graphic. I gave it 3 1/2 stars in my review.
—
Best Bangs
Eye-catching cover
Princess: Ariel!
Book: Caraval, by Stephanie Garber. I don’t normally pick books based on cover, but the minute I saw it, I need I wanted to read it. It’s going back on my TBR soon!
—
Long & Loose
Longest book you read this year
Princess: Merida!
Book: I honestly can’t answer this question. I don’t normally pay attention to the length of books.
—
Best Pony
A book that swings from POV to POV
Princess: Jasmine! I wanted hair like hers for years.
Book: Allegiant, by Veronica Roth. Many know my disgust with this book. I have trouble reading books with multiple POVs thanks to this one.
—
Stunningly Straight
A book that made you want to dive straight into the sequel
Princess: Pocahontas! Absolutely gorgeous!
Book: The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins. This book captivated me. I think I had all three books in my possession when I finished this one. If I hadn’t, I think I would have gone straight to the store to pick up Catching Fire the minute I finished the first one. If you haven’t read the trilogy, DO IT!
—
Enviable Curls
A book with twists and turns
Princess: Aurora.
Book: The Woman in Cabin 10, by Ruth Ware. Holy moly! This was such a good book! It kept me on the edge the entire time. What a ride!
—
Hair Closest to Your Own
A book that you strongly connected to
Princess: Rapunzel’s hair after it’s cut off. I felt this way when I decided to cut my hair to its current length. I’d grown my hair out from 2013 through 2017, and I’m glad I did since my wedding hairstyle came out beautifully in 2015. But, after a while, the length was frustrating and I really started to not like it. It took FOREVER to blow dry! I decided to cut it off, and I’ve never looked back. I know Al was sad, but I’ve loved the compliments I’ve gotten with my current style. Plus, blow drying is a cinch now!
Book: This is one of the toughest questions. But, I think the proper answer, at this moment, is Grace and Grit: My Fight for Equal Pay and Fairness at Goodyear and Beyond, by Lilly Ledbetter. I greatly enjoy human interest stories, and especially ones written by women. As a woman, and someone who is very much aware of the wage gap, I try to learn more about it. Reading Ledbetter’s story was so encouraging and inspiring to me. This book will remain on my bookshelf forever.

Thank you for tagging me! This one looks like so much fun! 🙂
You’re so welcome! This was fun and unique. I can’t wait to see your answers!
The Great Gatsby…classic!!
Thank you! I like to think so.
Awe…..thank you!! You’re so sweet!!! Makin’ me blush now he-he.
“To Kill A Mockingbird” is a great choice – such a beautiful story. I also dived into the sequel of “The Hunger Games” after I finished the first book…and the second ha-ha!
Oh my goodness…the Harry Potter quote…too true…too real…I had SUCH a hard time reading books when I finished that series. It LITERALLY defines my childhood and early teen years.
Great list!
You’re so welcome! This was so much fun and unique.
I agree – I couldn’t get enough of The Hunger Games trilogy!
And Harry Potter. I was reading the seventh book while babysitting kids over the summer, and my copy was a library book. I loved it, but it was so hard when I finally finished it! I don’t think I read another book for at least a week, and that was saying something for me!
