If it counts, I will add my thoughts on the book. Otherwise, it will just be linked to the summary (if I link my thoughts, the summary of the book will be in that blog). I also did a vlog that will be linked here as well.
So, without further ado, here are the prompts for the tag.

(If some titles are skipped, it's because I already linked the summary/my thoughts else where)

Okay, this part gets a bit tricky for me because I completed 3 books on the same day and one of these books had to be the 4th book right? I just don't remember which I finished first, so, I just will put down all 3.
-Pumpkinheads by Rainbow Rowell

5. Leaping ahead: name 4 books that you want to read by the next leap year [alternative: name something on your bookish bucket list that you want to complete by the next leap year].
-Queen by Alex Haley
-[Finishing] Mistborn Trilogy & at least one more book by Brandon Sanderson

7. Bad luck: what bookish things do you steer clear from?
There can be many types of books I steer clear from mostly but abuse is one. Especially abuse towards children, elderly and animals (of course,abuse of all kind is a problem) I still have yet to read The Hate U Give because it just hurts too much to even try. Especially as I am a mom of color raising two boys of color. I don't read many horrors or thrillers (Although I'd read thriller before horror and I do love thrillers. The few I've read). I love mystery but don't get to read many of those. I love true & fictional crime shows but even too many of those can bring on anxiety and depression. If I am watching or listening to someone who has read books that have certain triggers, I will determine then if it is something I want to read or not. I also do not read erotica. Too much sex in books isn't my thing. I can get the subtle hints. I mean, I do have two sons, so I think I know how sex works at least a little bit. lol
8. Tag 4 people!
Well, I have no one to tag in the blog world either so, whomever is reading this and have a blog or does videos, go for it. I hope you have a lot of fun with it. 😊
