I found this tag on the wonderful Sara’s blog The Bibliophagist. I am seeing Avengers: Endgame tonight and I thought that there was no perfect time to do this tag. I, along with many others, having been anticipating this movies for what seems like ages now and I can not believe the day is finally here! I am both excited and nervous that it won’t live up to my expectations. That said, Marvel has not let me down yet!
IRON MAN: A BOOK THAT MADE YOU LAUGH OUT LOUD

I have mentioned a few times that humour often does not work for me in books, but Calypso is an exception. Sedaris’s sense of humour and mine are very similar- sarcastic and a little bit dark some times. There were stories he told about his family that made me laugh out loud. The section of the book where he explains why he titled the book Calypso was hilarious! I own Me Talk Pretty One Day and I am saving it for when I need a laugh.
CAPTAIN AMERICA: A BOOK THAT SENDS A POSITIVE MESSAGE
Notes on a Nervous Planet by Matt Haig
Matt Haig speaks about anxiety and social pressure from a place of experience and it truly hit home with me. There are many sections that I often reference and share with friends and family. Just today I read a chapter to my mom about how the beach does not care what you look like it a swimsuit and it really spoke to her. It is a book that I want everyone in my life to experience.
THOR: A BOOK WITH A CHARACTER’S STRENGTH YOU ADMIRE
The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden
Vasilisa has strength in many ways. She is both physically and emotionally strong, and she has strong character. She is independent, fearless, and is always up for an adventure. I am sure that her strength is even more prevalent as the series continues!
BLACK WIDOW: A BOOK WITH A KICK-ASS FEMALE PROTAGONIST
Red Rising by Pierce Brown
Every time I talk about this series I feel the need to point out that I have only read the first book, and I know I need to change that! I can not believe I haven’t continued with the series because I adore Mustang and I need more of her. She is such a badass and I want to see her character development.
HULK: A BOOK THAT MADE YOU INCREDIBLY ANGRY
The Light We Lost by Jill Santopolo
Ugh, this book!!! Worst. romance. ever. The main characters were so pretentious and selfish that I was actively rooting against them.
HAWKEYE: AN UNDERRATED BOOK YOU THINK MORE PEOPLE SHOULD PAY ATTENTION TO
Peter Darling by Austin Chant

I was surprised to see that Peter Darling had less than 1000 reviews on Goodreads! It is such a beautiful little book and brings new life to the story of Peter Pan. Peter Pan is transgender and falls in love with Captain Hook, and it is amazing. I truly think everyone would love this book if they picked it up. Don’t be surprised to see me talking about it all of the time! It is just too good to ignore!
*BONUS* LOKI: A BOOK WITH A TWIST OR SURPRISE THAT TRICKED YOU

Bitter Orange is a unique mystery that slowly reveals itself. You think you have a handle of what is going on and then you realized that you definitely do not. There was one point where something was revealed that totally caught me off guard even though Fuller left subtle hints throughout the story. Brilliant!
How excited are you to see Endgame?! What is your favourite movie in the Marvel universe?
I love this tag and did it as well!! SQUEAL!!! 24 HOURS!!!!
Glad you had fun with it!
Ahhh so nervous and excited at the same time!
Love this!!
I might give it a go at some point 😍
I would love to see your answers!
It’s so good to hear that Notes on a Nervous Planet resonated with you! It’s been on my TBR even though I don’t read a lot of non-fiction, so I look forward to picking it up.
I’m so nervous/excited about Avengers Endgame but I’m going on a quick trip and won’t be able to see it until next week!
Notes on a Nervous Planet is a great one. It’s a perfect book to read in small chunks and to think about.
I am nervous excited as well! I’m going away this weekend so I was happy I was able to snag tickets for tonight! Hope you have a great trip!
Argh! I was silly and didn’t buy advance tickets :’-( Have to wait until SUNDAY to see it!
Ah no! Hopefully you can navigate your way around the spoilers I am sure are going to start popping up!
I’m an internet no-go until Saturday night! This is too epic to spoil!
Update: Scored a ticket.
Bring it on.
Just got home from the movie… Wow!
IT WAS SO GOOD!!!
Have fun watching it!! I saw it last night (like, one of the only benefits of being in Australia) and I am still shook!!!! 😱💕
Ah I can’t wait but I’m nervous!
I watched the movie this morning and… I was SO NOT READY for what it did to my emotions. Welp! 😂😭
Ahhh I am so not ready!!
Keep going with the Red Rising series! ❤️
I know! I must and I will!
I haven’t read a lot of these, but I totally agree with Red Rising! I read the second book years ago but still need to read the third.
Such a great book. I hope we both finish the series soon!
I’m seeing Avengers tonight too and I’m so scared/excited. I hope you have a great time.
Same to you! Definitely nervous. Never felt this way about a movie before!
I LOVE this!! My husband and I have seen all 22 movies in the theater and will be going to see Endgame tomorrow night. I will definitely be giving this tag a try.
I have seen them all with my best friend. It’s so fun to experience the whole Marvel universe with someone!
SO DOING THIS! I already have my pre-ordered tickets for End Game because I’m cool like that 😉 Favourite movie?? Probably a tie between the Iron-Man films, Guardians (both), and Black Panther … Ant-Man is definitely up there and he’s definitely my favourite character ha-ha!
I have had my tickets for almost three weeks! Great choices. I love the Ant Man movies. They have a lighter feel than the other movies and it is a breath of fresh air!
Me too! I also just love Paul Rudd … he’s a great actor and just an adorable human being lol!
I love this tag!!!!
It is fun!
Vasya’d be my pick for a strong character too and you’re so right, she only gets stronger and stronger ❤️ Bitter Orange sounds fascinating!
I’m so looking forward to watching her growth!
Wow. Another interesting book tag! Hmmm. I hope you don’t mind if I take this one again? LOL 🙂
Of course not!! Would love to see your answers.
Great tag! I have to wait until Friday to see Endgame. 😢
Ah hope you have managed to avoid spoilers. They are everywhere!
I’m scrupulously avoiding them.
I hope you enjoy the movie! My students all went to see it on opening night and LOVED it.
I saw it and really loved it. Going again this weekend!
Hi! I just clicked followed when I saw this tag.
I’m so glad you mentioned Peter Darling. I love that book!
Thanks so much.
It’s such a great book!
This is such an adorable tag idea!
That was such a fun idea! I hadn’t heard of this before, but I may use it. It’s cool!
I had never heard of some of these books before, but I’ll have to check them out.
Isn’t it so clever? I would love to see the books on your TBR!
The books recommendation are well written~! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you!
