I was reminded that this tag existed after seeing Chris’s post the other day so here I am doing the same! I don’t celebrate Thanksgiving but this is a yearly meme I do enjoy so why not keep doing it with the books I’ve read over the year? I thought I did one last year but it seems the last time I did this was in 2022 so now is the time to rectify this error and get straight to it.
This is an original book tag by Anna’s Book Nook.
The Rules
- Thank the person who nominated you
- Give credit to the author (Annasbooknook)
- Answer the prompts
- Tag others if you desire!
1) Friends and Family: A book with characters that feel like family
A Rival Most Vial
The found family aspect in A Rival Most Vial was one of my favourite parts of the book. The shopkeepers of Rosemond Street who make up this wonderful crew quickly stole my heart and they felt very much like family by the end of the story! 💜
2) Fallen Leaves: A book that fell flat (didn’t meet your expectations)
House of Frank
There have been a surprising number of books that could’ve fit this category this year. But House of Frank sounded like it could’ve been a 5-star read for me (and I predicted it would be) but I couldn’t have been more wrong. I was so disappointed… 🥺
3) Thanksgiving Dinner: A book you want to read every year during this season
Starling House
I can’t think of a more perfect read for this season! Whether it’s one that I’ll re-read every year remains to be seen cos I don’t re-read as much as I’d like, but this would be a contender!
4) Turkey: A book with a bird in it
Black Sun
This had many birds and it was amazing. Gruesome and slightly terrifying at times, but I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this if you love non-Western mythology in your fantasy!
5) Ham: A book that made your eyes glaze over (boring)
Dragon Pearl
This MG SFF had been on my TBR for years and I was so excited to read it. Unfortunately, disappointing would be an understatement. I didn’t get reeled in the way I expected and found myself bored despite all the action!
6) Dinner Rolls: A book that melted your heart and made you feel warm
The Exception to the Rule
This might be a short story but the magic CLo weaves into it is *chef’s kiss!* perfection! 😍 Had me melting with all the feels!!!
7) Mashed Potatoes: A book with a white cover
The Places I’ve Cried in Public
I love this cover so much even though this was one of the emotionally tougher books I’ve read this year.
8) Gravy: A book you’re not totally sure why you love, but you do
Tentacles & Triathlons
I can’t really think of a book that would fit this prompt this week but I’ll go with this monster romance series. It’s not something I typically read but gosh, it was fun, emotional, sexy, and sweet!
9) Pumpkin Pie: A dessert book that you love
Magic, Lies, and Deadly Pies
It’s pie perfect! You might not want to eat all of these pies (because you know, they’re deadly) but they sure sound amazing! 🤤
Bonus: Black Friday – Top 5 books on your “I want to buy them” list
Instead of choosing a Top 5 (because that would be impossible) I’m sharing the last 5 books I added to my TBR wishlist!
And that’s all from me, folks! I won’t tag anyone but if you want to do the tag, feel free to grab it and link back so I can see your answers! 😃

The Exception to the Rule was such a great short. I am getting warm and fuzzy just thinking about it. I have Butterflies on my TBR too. Looks like a good one and early reviews are positive as well.
