I created this post a few years ago, you can check out the embarrassing 1st post here! I had done many tags since I have started book blogging and wanted to add to the fun of the season by creating my own! I thought this song was very fitting for a tag and hope everyone enjoys it! I worked really hard trying to come up with categories that fit into each section of the song, its corny and some of it is a stretch, but whatever!  If you decide to participate and do this tag I would love for you to leave your link so that I may see the choices you made. I have done this the past few years and I think this year was the easiest to come up with answers! Check out my post from last year here!

On the first day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
A Partridge in a Pear Tree  : The Partridge Stood Alone In The Pear Tree? What is Your Favorite Stand Alone of 2019?

I read quite a few standalones this year but the stand out book was Rules for Vanishing by Kate Alice Marshall

On the second day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
Two Turtle Doves : Love Is In The Air, Who Is You OTP?

This is a recent shipping for me and might be premature and crazy, but it is so Leopold and Aeduan from Truthwitch by Susan Dennard! 🙂
 

 
On the third day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
Three French Hens :  In The Spirit Of Threes, What Is The Best Trilogy Your Have Read?

I haven’t read any trilogies this year, but I did read the 3 published books in the Dragonwatch series by Brandon Mull and they are absolutely action packed and fantastic!

On the fourth day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
Four Calling Birds : Since Series Usually Consist of Four or More Books What Is Your Favorite Series?

I finished Percy Jackson and the Olympians by Rick Riordan this year and thought it was a really good series. I wouldn’t say it is my favorite but I also am really enjoying Ice Planet Barbarians Series by Ruby Dixon

On the fifth day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
Five Golden Rings : One Ring To Rule Them All! Who is Your Favorite Villain/Antagonist?

This is a tough one, there are so many good options. I would say it is probably Dorothy from Dorothy Must Die by Danielle Paige or Ronodin from the Dragonwatch series by Brandon Mull.

On the sixth day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
Six Geese a Laying : Creation Is A Beautiful Thing! What is Your Favorite World/World-Building?

The world building in the Wayward Children series by Seanan McGuire is almost perfection! Also the world created by AG Howard in the book Stain was so beautifully done!

On the seventh day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
Seven Swans a Swimming: Who Needs Seven Swans When All It Takes Is One Good Animal Sidekick To Make A Hero Rock! Who Is Your Favorite Animal Sidekick?

I have fallen in love with a couple animal sidekicks this year, but my favorite would have to be the barghest from Mirrorbound by Monica Sanz.

On the eighth day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
Eight Maids a Milking: Milk Is So 18th Century! Which Book or Series Takes Beverages/Food To A Whole New Level?

The world of confection in Beneath the Sugar Sky by Seanan McGuire! All the sugary goodness.

On the ninth day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
Nine Ladies Dancing : Dancing is Just One Skill of a Lady! Who is Your Favorite Kickass Female Lead?

Kasia from The Rogue King by Abigail Owens is a pretty fierce female.

On the tenth day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
Ten Lords a Leaping: Leaping Lords? How About Who Is Your Favorite Leading Lad?

Vesper from Stain by AG Howard was such a dynamic and complex male lead!

On the eleventh day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
Eleven Pipers Piping: Where Would We Be Without Music? What Is Your Favorite Book or Bookish Thing That Deals With Music? (It can be about music, reference music a lot etc.)

There were 2 really great books that dealt with rapping that I read this year. On the Come Up by Angie Thomas and Let Me Here A Rhyme by Tiffany D Jackson

On the twelfth day of Christmas
my true love sent to me:
12 Drummers Drumming: Drum Roll Please…………………….What Is Your Favorite Read of This Year?
