Yep I am back again with an original book tag, and this time I am using the colours of the rainbow! Spring is (hopefully) near and I just need some sunshine and colours in my life so why not put that together with books? If you do this tag please tag me because I would love to see your answers but for now, here are the prompts:

Red – Pick a Book With a Love Story

Red is the colour of fire and anger, but also love! And while most books have a love story, this is a prompt for you to choose a book where the love story is the main theme of the book. Anyways, I chose The Selection by Kiera Cass because the story idea revolves around Prince Maxon finding a wife through the Selection. There are heart breaks and tears and kisses and overall it is such a heart warming, fun book!

Orange – Pick a Book With a Creative Main Character

Like all colours, orange can represent many different things but one thing it represents is creativity. I recently read a book where our main character is an aspiring playwright who just moved to London to pursue her dream, and that book is London Belongs to Me by Jacquelyn Middleton. Was this my favourite book? No, but it shows the struggles of being a creative person and what it feels like to follow your dreams, which is something I think all should be reminded of.

Yellow – Pick a Book That Takes Place During the Summertime

Yellow! Sun, warmth, two of my favourite things represented by this very loud and bright colour. Some of my favourite books take place over the summer so I was itching to put down this question. The book that I decided to go with though, is Since You’ve Been Gone by Morgan Matson. Ugh, I love this book. Not only does it take place in the summer but it follows our main character, Emily, who sets off on a bucket list her missing, best friend Sloane left for her, hoping it will lead her to her best friend.

Green – Pick a Book With Greenery On the Cover

Spring is quickly coming so the grass is greener and the flowers are blooming which is what inspired this prompt. The book I decided to go with for this prompt is Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon because of all the pretty flowers on the cover. Everything, Everything is a contemporary that follows a girl named Maddie who is allergic to everything, and until she met Ollie she was okay with that. But once she meets him, everything changes and finds herself desperate to escape her limited life.

Blue – Pick a Character Who Acts as Mentor

Blue can symbolize sadness or confidence, but it also symbolizes wisdom. There are many books out there where the main character has a mentor they look up to, and it doesn’t always have to be an older man like Dumbledore. I decided to go with one of my favourite characters and that is Percy Jackson from the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series by Rick Riordan. Percy acts as a mentor to Nico, a younger boy who admired Percy fiercely from the moment they first met because of his bravery and loyalty to those around him. Percy helps out Nico as much as he can, even when Nico doesn’t necessarily want the help which is why I thought he was a perfect choice for this challenge!

Purple – Pick a Book With a Royal Family

I twisted the prompt a little bit but that is because the family I am choosing is not technically true royalty, but they are very wealthy and remind me of a royal family because of how they act. Anyways, I decided to go with the Sinclair family from We Were Liars by E. Lockhart. If you’ve read it I am sure you can see where I am coming from and if you haven’t…well read it because it is filled with gripping twists and turns that will leave you wanting more!

That is all for this tag and I hope you enjoyed! This tag is a little random but I had a lot of fun making it so that is all that matters right? Don’t forget to check out my last blog post: Things All Writers Need
