Today’s seasonally appropriate has been borrowed from the fantastic Emma of Drinkning by my Shelf, who I am very very sure would be my real life best friend if we were to meet.
Here’s a piece of fun trivia: In Ireland, it’s already the middle of autumn. We follow the Celtic Calendar, which means our seasons change about a month or so before they do in the UK. So, while in the UK autumn comes in September, in Ireland we have autumn already in August.
For some reason, I thought I’d already done this book blog tag. I’m super nosy about people’s loves and lives, so a blog tag like this is definitely the one for me. I found this tag over on Thrice Read, which is run by three lovely ladies – Jenn, Caitlynn, and Eden. I’ve followed their blog since the end of last year and I love getting not just one person’s perspective on books and bookish things, but three people. So, time for my thoughts.
This book tag was pretty ubiquitous around the book blogosphere in mid June, but I had my June tag fixed for my birthday. Because the midpoint of the year is July 2nd, I decided to run the tag in July. Plus, now I get to include all my June reading too, so who’s the real winner here?
What’s this, a tag but not on Tag Thursday? I’ve not totally lost my mind, it is Thursday after all. I really liked the Addicted to Books tag, which I spotted on Kate’s fantastic book blog Reading Through Infinity. So, I’m going to bend my own rules a little and post a tag post outside of the Tag Thursday timeline.
This month, Tag Thursday almost synched up with my birthday – my birthday will actually be next Thursday. So, I thought it would be the ideal time to do the Birthday Book Tag. This lovely tag was created by Antonia from Always Books, and it’s a great way to share your thoughts about your life so far while celebrating your birthday and your reading days to come.
