Hey guys! So after doing the Ace Of Shades book tag last week, I’ve really been craving some book tags, in the non-edible way of course.
I saw this tag on my good friend Dora’s blog Berries & Books and knew I had to do it! I’m a huge lover of mythology, be it Greek or Roman or Norse, so I’m really excited to do this one.
The tag was originally created by Kyera’s Library so you can go check that out if you wish.
Lego!
THE RULES
- Link back to my original post and to Kyera’s post
- Thank the person(s) who tagged you…show the community some love!
- Obviously, come up with your wondeful answers!
- Don’t forget to tag others to keep the tag going.
ODIN – FAVOURITE STAND ALONE
Odin is the All-Father, the leader of the Norse gods. He is the god of wisdom, poetry, battle, death, wine and war among other things.
Definitively my favourite stand alone in a long time! I did a review if you’re interested.
THOR – A BOOK THAT HITS YOU IN THE FEELS
Thor is the god of thunder, weather, warriors, strength, and storms so his might packs a punch. He is married to the beautiful lady Sif.
I shed many tears whilst reading this last year! I also have a review for it.
LOKI – BIGGEST BOOK PLOT TWIST OR CHARACTER BETRAYAL
Loki is the god of mischief, thieves and thrives on chaos.
There’s a huge twist and betrayal in DOTBC! Such a great book, 5 star review here.
FRIGG – OTP
Frigg is Odin’s wife, the goddess of love, marriage, fertility and fate.
NUNA! I will forever root for these two.
HEIMDALL – FAVOURITE SECOND BOOK IN A SERIES
Heimdall is the god of loyalty, faithfulness and it is he who protects the bi-frost, the bridge that connects all nine worlds.
ACOMAF is definitely what made me love this series and most definitely Rhys!
BALDUR – FAVOURITE MAIN CHARACTER
Baldur is the beloved son of Odin and Frigg, twin brother of Hodor.
Nova is the shit! Enough said. Review here.
SIF – MOST BEAUTIFUL BOOK COVER
Lady Sif is known for her beautiful golden tresses, although she is also the goddess of the harvest and is married to Thor.
Not only is Caraval gorgeous, the UK editions also have stunning secret covers!
FREY – BOOK OR SERIES THAT MAKES YOU HAPPY
Frey is the Lord of weather, God of light, summer, master of agriculture, fertility, and brother of Freya.
Simon and Blue make me happy! Review here.
FREYA – FAVOURITE BOOK SETTING
Freya is the goddess of love and beauty, fertility, war, wealth and growth, and sister of Frey.
I will always love how magical Hogwarts is.
TYR – FAVOURITE BOOK WITH A BIG UPHEAVAL/EPIC FIGHT SCENE
Tyr is the god of war.
The Lord Of The Rings series has too many fights that I can’t count!
ULLER – CHARACTER DEATH THAT AFFECTED YOU THE MOST
Uller is the god of death, winter, archery and hunting.
Without spoilers, there is one very horrible death in the 5th book that I cried and cried over, you know who I mean if you’ve read it!
NJORD – FAVOURITE BOOK AN EPIC JOURNEY ON WATER/OCEAN SETTING
Njord is the god of the wind and the sea.
I haven’t read too many books based on the ocean, so this is a good one and an awesome journey.
VALKYRIE – FAVOURITE STRONG FEMALE CHARACTER
The Valkyries, much like the Amazons, are strong female warriors.
Shazi is incredibly strong and brave. She practically sacrifices herself.
AESIR/VANIR – FAVOURITE BOOK “CREW”
The Aesir and the Vanir are the two groups of Norse gods, believed to be the old and new gods.
I have so much love for both the Renegades and the Anarchists gangs!
SEIPYRTS – FAVOURITE SIDEKICK (NON-HUMAN CHARACTER)
Seipyrts is Odin’s trusty eight legged steed, yes you heard that correctly – eight legs. I promise that he is the god’s horse companion and not a giant spider that he rides around on… although that would probably strike more fear in the hearts of his enemies than a pretty horse does.
Um, do you not love Fang?! Hagrid’s beloved pet dog, always by his side, although he might not do much.
That was a whopper of a tag! And perfect to get me back in the swing. I tag Megs and anyone who loves Norse Mythology or just a good book tag!
Until next time ❣
I love this tag! Also so many books in your answers I am dying to read, how did you like Renegades? it has been on my list for a while and I am seriously debating finally buying it 🙂
