Ouran Host Club Book Tag

Even though I have yet to read this particular manga or seen the anime, I’ve had my eye on it for a while. I’m still super excited to do this tag even though I might not quite understand anything else past the opening question. I was tagged by the wonderful Ava @ Reads, Rhythms, and Ruminations a while back, and without further wait (although it’s definitely been a while wait for me to get here), let’s begin! Make sure you check out Ava’s amazing blog, though, because it’s full of epic book reviews and tags, and all the anime content you can dream of!

The Rules

  1. Thank the person who tagged you!
  2. ALWAYS PINGBACK TO CREATOR (icebreaker694 – who has an epic, epic blog as well!! – per Mandy) she wants to see your post.
  3. Answer all the questions below! (You don’t have to watch the show to answer them.)
  4. Tag 8+ bloggers!

THEME SONG – A misleading character.

red-queen
Credits to HarperTeen

I wouldn’t post any spoilers, since I’m not sure just how many people have read this book, but there is one person in the Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard. I totally thought he was a sweet little teddy bear and BAM! I felt so betrayed.

HARUHI – A character every other character loves.

cress

Cress! She’s just so sweet and adorable that literally no one except for the evil people hate it – maybe because she’s so epic at her job? But still, there’s no one that you can hate Cress.

TAMAKI – A character who started a movement.

cinder

…well, now Cinder! Isn’t it just amazing when I use back-to-back TLC references? No? You’re not that impressed? You think I need to read more books? 😉 No, but Cinder definitely helped start a revolution, so I definitely think she can be said to have started a movement.

KYOYA – A character with parental issues.

geekerella

You can definitely say Elle from Geekerella by Ashley Poston had some pretty big issues with her parental units – namely her evil stepmother who totally lived up her name and folklore inspirations. Also, this book is insanely epicccccccc. I’ll be posting my review next week, and I can’t wait to turn into a fangirling mess for it.

KAORU & HIKARU – Brotherly love.

a court of mist and fury

Az, Cassian, and Rhysand from A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J Maas had some major brotherly love, and I loved every second of their bromance! Also, the book hangover on this book is so real right now, gals and guys. I’m in deep.

MORI – A character who is scary on the outside, but a bundle of fluff on the inside.

grave-mercy
Credits to Houghton Miffin Harcourt

Beast from the Grave Mercy series! He was literally described to be a beast, but he was so kind and funny and sweet that you couldn’t help but loving this murdering beast on the battlefield.

HONEY – A character who loves to eat.

Oh, gosh, I feel like there is a lot, but I totally can’t remember any of them. D: There’s always this one question in the tag that leaves me questioning if I literally read any books at all…OH WAIT. NINA from Six of Crows! She loves a good dessert. And waffles. Definitely waffles.

six-of-crows

RENGE – A tag along character.

16906571_1442162635802062_2644939980132057088_n

I’m going to use Ava’s answer for this one and say Iko! She totally owned it in Wires and Nerve by Marissa Meyer.

NEKOZAWA – A character who likes the dark side.

a court of mist and fury

Oh, look, it’s ACOMAF again. Is this book going to be a staple now in my tags? I’m not quite sure, but after a  disastrous start this series, I totally fell in deep into this book, and it might have been due to totally being into the darkness-loving High Lord, Rhysand? Just saying.

Don’t forget to check out Ava’s fantastic post, and thanks so much to her for the tag!

Tag…you’re it! (In the most polite way possible of course and don’t feel that you have to do it if you’re not into tags and such!) It’s such a fun tag, too, so if feel free to do it as well even if you’re not in the list below!

      1. Why do you hate Cal? *pout* It’s like I like him way better than the other guy. Haha! Maybe because he’s older and more mature. 😀 And now I really need to buy the second book. But I still need to wait for the third. Oh my gosh what to do? >.<

        Liked by 1 person

      2. Lol, I think it’s because I liked Maven! XD And then I hated Cal by default because I thought Maven was the right guy and it was Cal all along. XD I got myself too confused, and poor Cal suffered. And lol, I’m sorry. XD It really is quite hard. But you will definitely want the third book close by when you read the second one because it’s kind of insanity at the end.

      3. Haha! Maven is so charming and you fell for it. He’s irresistible I know. 😀 But then I guess it’s also the reason why I wasn’t betrayed by the book. Because I like Cal and that made me suspicious towards Maven. (We are somehow talking spoilers here. Hahaha!! XD) Okay so I just need to fight this urge on buying the second book and wait for the third one so I won’t suffer the insanity you’re talking. 😀 (Which is going to be so dang hard.)

      4. I DID, JANNIN. I was soooooo much more gullible than Mare was with Maven. XD But yes, I can totally see where you wouldn’t have been super betrayed by it. XD And oh yes, right. SPOILER SPOILER ALERT…even though it’s a few comments too late. XD And lol yes, I totally know what you mean. I wish you best of luck but you won’t have to suffer a major book hangover and insanity waiting for it.

      1. I totally understand the book hangover thingy, I was so sure I’d never come across a book as good as ACOMAF. It took a while for me to let everything sink in. (Tumblr, Pinterest, and weheartit helped me get rid of the hangover) 😂

      1. HA. IN MY DREAMS which is usually dedicated to dancing deer selling free chocolate. Most people have big dreams like making it to broadway or starting their own company but for me it’s all about the amount of books I read.😂 You should create an SVU tag! We can audition for their show to play dead bodies!

      2. LOL. No, it’s a perfect dream. XD You could start your own business mentoring people how to get to their own dreams once you accomplish your book dreams. XD And lol, I could! Although I feel like it would probably get too dark? And lol I feel like I couldn’t stay still enough. XD

      3. What a wonderful idea! I could be like the Santa of the business, I’d buy a white long mustache, and get a wizard’s hat so I can be Santa AND Gandolf. 😆Na, I think your capable of mixing some dark magic into it but also keep it fun and uplifting. 😂😂 I’d say I’m making my dead scene slow so talent agents can notice me.

      18. Ooooooooooh. I like this, Olga. I feel it. So, in this book I was reading, I had a major Olga déjà vu. So it’s in this land where every character ever exists, and there’s this evil guy who is trying to store up and use all this magic. Anyway, he gets Dumbledore there and Dumbeldore gets hit by this magic ball of energy and somehow turns into a bunch of kittens with beards and hats. XD im like, I feel like this is naturally our progression in the show so how did this lady know??

      19. Mandy, I’m above privileged to be the purpose of your déjà vu. 😌 “I’d like to thank all those who supported me… you know it, food! Mom and dad I hope you still allow me to go out on the weekends!” A world with every character that has ever been generated? HEAVEN. H. E. A. V. E. N. 😱That just might make me cry. This evil guy is going down like an expired slice of apple pie. Ha! I figure I shouldn’t be cackling like a witch but that is totally believable! Dumbledore would equal kitten with beards and pointy hats! A while back I thought he would be a dozen or so talking hats and the color the hat changes to would express his emotions. We-ladies- are always surprising even ourselves.😉Ha. I tried to be mysterious..Fail.

XD BUT YES. WE MUST TAKE HIM DOWN. Maybe we feed him too much apple pie so we don’t be the cackling witch. XD And lol, oooooh, I want a hat like that. Dumbledore is cool and all but I want the hat!

      21. Knowing me, my impediment that keeps it from being the perfect verbal speech is my stuttering. I would be ridiculous! YESSS. Too much apple pie will make him stuffed and tired. He’ll forget the reason he’s even attacking people. You should plan an adventure on the search for that hat BUT don’t forget about your blog since I need my daily cup of awesomeness!!

We need to get a boombox for when we try to tiptoe inside his home we could play Pink Panther music to make it seem “normal”.😂 Hansel and Gretel could come and attempt to protect him…you’re never certain with those two. Duh, I’d have to come because my seeking incredible hat talent can finally be shown! Top hats are a must. We can not go home without one.

      27. For more good ideas and people with unique talents, I’ll request they contact you so we can incorporate CIA talk into our discussions. Does that mean I can never build a dog house out of candy? I was hoping to get a chance, but everyone would conclude Hansel and Gretel were my ancestors and I’m planning revenge.

    I think after a while it’s hard to get super original choices anymore, so don’t feel bad! I totally have the same issue whenever I do tags XD It’s always the same titles in my head… I’m doing my best to change that, though. And you did really well, here, ok? Just know that.
