The Birthstone Book Tag

I saw this floating around on Booktube a couple of weeks ago and decided i needed another tag for this month so i decided to do it lets get started....

1. January (GARNET):
Associated with warding off negative forces and dark energies - Name a book with the darkest/evilest character you can think of.

Definitely Voldermort from Harry Potter, because i mean he is a evil character who tries to kill a baby and kills loads of other people.


2. February (AMETHYST):
Purple is associated with royalty - Name a book with regal qualities... You can base this off of characters of choose the King of all books 

 Stormbird by Conn Iggulden because it tells the tale of a 30 year civil war in England and it is magnificent and i cant believe the series is ending in May.


3. March (AQUAMARINE):
Washed out - Name a 'wishy washy' character, a character who is not strong or a follower

Zoe Sage from The Bloodlines Series by Richelle Mead, she turned her own sister in to a organisation that her and her father blindly follow. 


4. April (DIAMOND):
A diamond in the rough - Name a book that you loved but is not well known

The Long Game by J L Fynn, i got this in a goodreads giveaway back in 2013 and i loved it it was the first New Adult book i read and it will forever be in my heart.

5. May (EMERALD):
Said to balance energy - Name two characters who balance each other well

Rose and Dimitri from Vampire Academy, she acts first and asks questions later while Dimitri has more self control over himself and his emotions and they bring out the best in each other. 


6. June (PEARL):
Associated with loyalty - Name a character who is loyal to the end

Percy Jackson, i don't have to say any more than that. It is one of his mortal flaws for gods sake.
  



7. July (RUBY):
Blood red - Name a book that made your blood boil, one that made you angry

Allegiant by Veronica Roth - NO WORDS, YOU ALL KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. -
  

8. August (PERIDOT):
Pale green (it pales in comparison to other gems) - Name a supporting character who you like better than the main character

I actually don't have on for this, i like most main characters more that supporting ones. 

9. September (SAPPHIRE):
Blue like the ocean which is calming - Name a book that had a calming affect on you

My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick, it had such a calming effect on me, i loved this book and even the cover is calming. 

10. October (OPAL): Iridescent 
Name an iridescent book, this can be a book with a beautiful cover (Shiny? Lots of colour?) or you can base it off of a character (Quirky? Colourful?)

Ultraviolet - R J Anderson i completely admit this was a cover buy but then i read the back and i was hooked such a pretty cover. 


 11. November (TOPAZ):
Associated with resilience - Name a books with a character who rises to the top in a time of adversity

Henry VII in The White Princess by Philippa Gregory, he rises up and takes the crown in a time where the yorkists are mad that the princes and right full Heirs have gone missing and Richard III is behind it. 


12. December (BLUE ZIRCON):
Associated with friendship - Name a book with a friendship you want to be apart of

The Rosemary Beach series by Abbi Glines the entire group of friends just seem like a riot it would never be boring and with Dean and Kiro dropping in you know drama is going to follow them around.
