Cos I’m in the Marvel mood, I thought it was the perfect opportunity to do a themed bookish tag! And fortunately there’s a tag on every topic, so I didn’t have to look for long 😉 Thanks so much to the wonderful Sam @Rivermoose Reads for (rather conveniently) tagging me to do this one!
Iron Man – a book that made you laugh out loud:
AHA! This book is a hilarious fake-memoir, based around Steve Coogan’s fabulously funny character Alan Partridge.
Captain America – a book that sends a positive message:
This is a wonderful book full of vital, life lessons- if you haven’t read it, I can’t recommend it enough!
Thor – a book with a character’s strength you admire:
I just love the strength of the women in this book.
Black Widow – a book with a kick-ass female protagonist:
I feel like I mention this book every other week now- but I can’t help it! Nona typifies *the best* attributes of the kickass character! Edgy and sharp and with hidden depths, she is an awesome heroine!
Hulk – a book that made you incredibly angry:
This. Is. Terrible.
Hawkeye – an underrated book you think more people should pay attention to:
So sad how few people have read this gem of a poetry collection outside of Hungary.
*BONUS* Loki – a book with a twist or surprise that tricked you:
*No spoilers*- even if this book is by no means new, I still think the impact of the twist will blow most readers away! (plus it’s a book with evil Phaeries- need I say more? 😉 )
That was a fun one- hope you enjoyed- I tag:
Mim Inkling, Reading Hobbit, Bibliophalgist, Hammock of Books, Arubun Written, The Candid Cover, CJR the Brit and The Storyteller
And anyone else that wants to do this! Also, on the subject of great team-ups, what’s your favourite cast of ensemble characters? Let me know in the comments!
I think I’m going to audiobook Atlas Shrugged lol. Everyone says it’s terrible plus horrendously long so might be easier to get through that way? Ah, A Thousand Splendid Suns. Such strength ❤
Haven't heard of most of these books *adds to TBR* Great tag! 🙂

A Thousand Splendid Suns & Red Sister have been on my TBR for a while. Actually, I’ve never read any of Khaled Hosseini’s books… Have you? Is there an order you’d recommend?
You’ve also got me excited to read Red Queen. I’m all in for kick-ass heroines 🙂

Oh man, the characters in A Thousand Splendid Suns are so strong and inspiring – I read it years ago and I still think about it a lot. And I’m really excited to read Red Sister, especially knowing that it has such a kickass female protagonist that can be compared to Black Widow! 😀

ahhh.. I need to do this tag! I haven’t read (or really heard of?) most of the books you’ve mentioned, so I got a little research to do! I’ve seen Red Sister all over the place and while I’m not big on high fantasy, I feel like I need to give it a shot sometime soon.
