Songs that fit book characters🎶📚

Hi friends, it’s my songs I think fit with book characters post today!

This one will be my last one before the new year as I’m taking a small break from posting content, and it also marks the end of my Harry Potter section of this series. In the new year I’ll be back with a brand new set of characters. ANYWAY, we’re going out with a bang, it’s Ginny Weasley.

Small note to say that these song choices are based on book Ginny as we can all agree she was done so dirty in the films…

Gif is not mine, all credit to the creator.

First up we have We Belong Together by Mariah Carey. This one is just purely based on the song title and would absolutely be what Ginny thinks about Harry!

You can see the playlist this song is from here – Top songs through the years

Next we have I Kissed A Girl by Katy Perry. Idk what it is, I just feel like Ginny is bisexual and this song is absolutely something she would do.

Lastly, we have Waterloo by Abba. Now don’t ask me what possessed me to pick this song, just something about it gave me real Ginny vibes, I cannot tell you what it is but I just get visions of her blasting this song and absolutely loving it.

You can see the playlist both of these songs are from here – some poppy trash THINGS.

Until next time, Em xxx

Songs that fit book characters🎶📚

Hi friends, it’s my songs I think fit with book characters post today!

This one is for one of my all time bestest ever book characters that I absolutely wanted to be when I was younger and that I’m super excited to write about! Today’s character is Hermione Granger.

Gif is not mine, all credit to the creator.

First up we have Gorgeous by Taylor Swift. There isn’t any particular reason why I chose this song, I just felt like it fit Hermione’s vibes!

Then I picked Girlfriend by Avril Lavinge. Like if this song was out at the time Ron was dating Lav-Lav you CANNOT tell me that Hermione wouldn’t be obsessed with it.

You can see the playlist both of these songs are from here – some poppy trash THINGS

And finally we have Don’t Call Me Angel by Ariana Grande, Miley Cryus and Lana Del Ray. This one just screams Hermione, it’s such a badass feeling song and definitely one that I think fits her perfectly.

Songs that fit book characters🎶📚

Hi friends, it’s my songs I think fit with book characters post today!

Today’s choice of book character is a personal favourite of mine and one that I would HAPPILY spend hours selecting the perfect gif for… It’s Draco Malfoy.

Gif is not mine, all credit to the creator.

I’m so excited to do this one, let’s get started!

Firstly we have Break Up With Your Girlfriend I’m bored by Ariana Grande, this song just screams Draco to me, like he honestly is the type to say this to someone.

You can see the playlist this song is from here – im a hoe

Then we have That’s What I Like by Bruno Mars, again this song just reminds me so much of him. And whilst I do love Bruno Mars this song gives me kinda spoiled vibes, which Draco definitely gives me!

And here is my personal favourite, noteable lyric included for the LOLS.

18 by Anarbor – “if you wanna piss off your parents, date me to scare them, show them you’re all grown up” just is Draco all over. I want to date him even if it’s not to piss off my parents, like PLEASE just ruin my life I’m begging.

You can see the playlist this song is from here –if u wanna piss off ur neighbours

Songs that fit book characters🎶📚

Hi friends, it’s my songs I think fit with book characters post today!

Today’s choice of character is none other than Harry Potter! I had the most fun picking out these songs and I actually had a lil giggle to myself for some of them, so I hope you enjoy them.

Gif is not mine, all credit to the creator.

First of all, and we have my FAVOURITE one first, is Die Young by Ke$ha. I’M SORRY OKAY, but the title of the song just fits perfectly considering ya know, Voldy is trying to kill him literally every year of his teenage life.

You can see the playlist this song is from here – some poppy trash THINGS

Next up we have Crazy Train by Ozzy Osborne. This song just screams Harry, how his poor life is absolute chaos, which so is this song TBH.

Lastly, we have Under Pressure by Queen. I mean, he’s constantly under pressure and also screaming for help from his friends so it fits perfectly!

You can see the playlist these songs are from here – it’s the 70s and 80s HONEY.

Until next time, Em xxx

Songs that fit book characters🎶📚

Hi friends, it’s my songs I think fit with book characters post today! (This is actually my first post of this series sooooooo!)

Today’s choice of book character is actually a duo… It’s the Weasley twins! Two of my all time favourite characters from the series, they just bring so much joy to my life and I had such a blast picking the songs for them, I can’t lie…

Gif is not mine, all credit to the creator.

First up we have I’m Only Me When I’m With You by Taylor Swift. And I mean this choice very literally, they’re twins, they complete each other, they are only themselves when they are together.

You can see the playlist this song is from here – YEEEEEEHAAAAAAW.

Secondly, we have I Was Made For Loving You by Kiss. I just think that this song fits them, they’re quite cocky and idk it just feels like they would have the time of their LIVES singing this, honestly.

You can see the playlist this song is from here – it’s called a MIXTAPE.

Lastly, and I think this might be my favourite on this list… I Wish I Was James Bond by Scouting For Girls. You cannot kid me that if Fred and George had seen the James Bond films that they would not WANT TO BE HIM, come onnnnnn.

You can see the playlist this song is from here – it’s called a MIXTAPE.

📚Top Ten Tuesday – Books I read in one sitting (or I would if I had the time)📚

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.

Today’s post is all about books that I read in one sitting, or that I would have done if I had the time to. While there aren’t many recently that I’ve been able to read in one go, due to time constraints, there are definitely some from when I was younger!

1 – Hush Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick. I could easily read this book in one sitting, I find it so easy to devour this one!

2 – Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix. I remember vividly when this came out, I read it in one day where I literally only moved to use the toilet or to get a drink.

3 – Goosebumps Horrorland Series. If I remember rightly my re-read of this series a few years ago took place across one full day. Granted they’re only short books but I was so desperate to find out what happened that I just powered through them.

4 – Matilda by Roald Dahl. This is one from my childhood that I never ever tire of reading!

5 – The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown. Not so much with my re-reads of this book but the very first time I read it I literally flew through it, I couldn’t put it down.

6 – Chopping Spree by Angela Sylvaine. Now this one was helped by how short the story was, I didn’t think it was going to be that short, but I devoured this in one sitting and it was SO worth it.

7 – Me and Mr Jones by Lucy Diamond. This one was just so easy to read that I completely lost any sense of time and carried on until I finished the whole thing!

And moving onto ones that I would love to read in one sitting if I could…

8 – The Pastel Effect by Arly Carmack. This book gave me all of the feels and was so bloody good that I would love nothing more than to be able to re-read it in one go, without any interruptions so that I could fully immerse myself into the story.

9 – The Shining by Stephen King. I absolutely love the atmosphere of this book and I always get disappointed when I have to put it down as it spoils it for me, so to be able to read this is one sitting would be PERFECT.

10 – The Guest List by Lucy Foley. Now I probably won’t re-read this one but if I could erase it from my memory and then read it again I would do so in one sitting, I felt like I was constantly on edge and I needed to keep reading to find out what would happen next. Every chapter was a cliffhanger.

And there you have it, 7 books that I absolutely flew through in one sitting and 3 that I would love to have done so if I just had the time!

Let me know if you’re taking part in TTT so I can check out your post too.

Top Ten Tuesday – Favourite book quotes📚

Hello fellow bloggers and bookworms and everyone else inbetween! I am VERY excited for this weeks Top Ten Tuesday topic and omg I’m just so excited haha.

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly post, born out of the want to bring us bookish people together and great for those of us that love a good list (which I do lmao).

In case you hadn’t gathered from the title this weeks topic set by Jana at That Artsy Reader Girl is favourite book quotes.

1 – “Mr. Moony presents his compliments to Professor Snape, and begs him to keep his abnormally large nose out of other people’s business. Mr. Prongs agrees with Mr. Moony, and would like to add that Professor Snape is an ugly git. Mr. Padfoot would like to register his astonishment that an idiot like that ever became a professor. Mr. Wormtail bids Professor Snape good day, and advises him to wash his hair, the slimeball.” Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban.

2 – “We accept the love we think we deserve.” The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky.

3 – “Fear comes with imagination, it’s a penalty, it’s the price of imagination.” Red Dragon by Thomas Harris.

4 – “So turn off the television—in fact, why don’t you turn off all the lights except for the one over your favorite chair?—and we’ll talk about vampires here in the dim. I think I can make you believe in them, because while I was working on this book, I believed in them myself.” Salem’s Lot by Stephen King.

5 – “I am your number one fan.” Misery by Stephen King.

6 – “The scar had not pained Harry for nineteen years. All was well.” Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows.

7 – “Look after my heart – I’ve left it with you.” Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer.

8 – “Hello Clarice…” The Silence of The Lambs by Thomas Harris.

9 – “Good-bye Clarice. Will you let me know if ever the lambs stop screaming?” The Silence of The Lambs by Thomas Harris.

10 – “A room without books is like a body without a soul.” Cicero.

And there you have 9 of my favourite book quotes and one quote that I just adore about books. There are A LOT more than 10 that I could have picked so these are completely random from that list!

As always, let me know if you’re taking part in Top Ten Tuesday and I will be sure to check out your post.

Top Ten Tuesday – Books for my younger self📚

• 

Hello fellow bloggers and bookworms! It’s Tuesday again which means it’s time for another Top Ten Tuesday post… This weeks topic is books for my younger self❤️

It can be anything from books you wish you read when you were younger or books that taught you something or even books that helped you get through events/changes in your life.

Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and is a weekly post, born out of the want to bring us bookish people together and great for those of us that love a good list aka me!

1 – The Twilight Saga. I have recently re-read these and am fully embracing Twi-hard life again but I originally read these books back when I was in school and they helped me through a really tough time.

2 – The Harry Potter series. Again, I read these when I was much much younger (and still embrace my HP life) but they just were such a constant fixture in my life that I couldn’t leave them out.

3 – The Goosebumps books. I mean I still read these as an adult but reading them as a child I think solidified my obsession with horror and being scared.

4 – The Universe Doesn’t Give A Shit About You. Reading this as a teenager or young adult would have made my life SO much easier, luckily I did read it and it changed my life.

5 – The Mistborn series. I have read these, but as an adult, and I wish I’d read them when I was younger so I could experience the magic of the story for a little bit longer.

Most of these are just books I wish I had read sooner than I did, so I could have experienced them for longer but that I do have a connection with, for various reasons.

As always, let me know if you’re taking part in TTT so I can check out your post!

Until next time, Em xxx

[Discussion Post] 📚Fictional Bucket List📚

Hey guys and welcome back to my blog (hello if you’re new, hope you’re ready to join the crazy train!)

ANYWAY today I’ve decided to write my fictional bucket list, which I’m fully aware will never be ticked off but I fancied a bit of fun for my evening.

1 – To go to Hogwarts. This is a literal lifelong dream of mine.

2 – To be sorted properly by the Sorting Hat. I’m Ravenclaw on Pottermore and I imagine that’s what I would be at Hogwarts but ya girl needs to know for real.

3 – To go on an adventure with Percy Jackson and Co. I reckon this would be scary but AMAZING.

4 – To visit Mount Olympus and the Gods. HELLO MR D GOD OF WINE😍 are you looking for a wife?!

5 – To visit Narnia. I have always loved The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe so getting to Narnia would be a big deal for me.

6 – To interview Dr Hannibal Lecter. I mean how amazing would this be? The man is a sociopath in it’s purest form and it would make for an amazing case study.

7 – To visit the Capitol. I do (now I’m older) struggle with The Hunger Games, I find it quite problematic but I would love to visit the Capitol, it has so much fanfare and craziness.

I am fully aware these things will never happen but your girl can dream!!! What would be on your fictional bucket list? Let me know!

[Discussion Post] 📚Why do I read fanfiction?📚

Good morning my lovely followers! I’m here again with a discussion post and this time I want to discuss Fan Fiction!

A bit of back story to this particular choice… I’m in a Harry Potter group on Facebook and someone put a post up asking if people read Fan Fiction or not, I decided not to comment as it was getting a bit heated, but it got me thinking… 

I love Fan Fiction, particularly Harry Potter (I literally do not read any other kind lmao) and sometimes I will prefer to read FF to a proper book.

I usually read non-canon FF, so stories about characters that should have died, or relationships that never happened in the books, etc. For me, it’s my way of exploring the Harry Potter world even more.

I’m perfectly able to separate FF from the books themselves, and if I was to pick up HP for another re-read I would have no issues in settling back into Ron and Hermione and not Hermione and X.

I personally just find it another way to explore the Wizarding World!

Do you read Fan Fiction? Let me know what you think in the comments, Em xx
