Gif Tag – Reviewing Books In One Gif

By Rachel

I’ve been tagged so much over the past couple of months, and I just haven’t had the time to play catch-up, so I’ll be scheduling plenty of tags over the next few weeks – brace yourselves! First up I’m tackling the Gif Tag, I was kindly nominated by Reviews From A Bookworm (I dread to think how long ago…). I love me some gifs, so this tag is just perfect. The person who tags you will give you a list of ten books, you have to respond with one sentence and one gif to show how you feel about the book. You then tag others, leaving a list of ten books for them. Simples.

1. The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins

Fast Reading Gif
I’ve only read the series once (I plan to do a reread soon) but I read the three books in four days –
could not put down.

2. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J. K. Rowling

Mixed Emotions Happy Tears Gif
So many emotions! Happy the book was finally released, heart-broken over some of the events, sad that it was the last book in the series, tears, smiles, more tears…

3. Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell

Ryan Gosling Whatever Gif
Will I like it? Will I not like it? Do I care?

4. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

I Can't Do It Gif
I’ve tried. A couple of time now. I just can’t get the whole way through it! But I will, one day I will.
The BBC Drama Series with Colin Firth is fabulous though…

5. Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas

Emotion Gif
This is the same Gif I used in my Throne of Glass review, and I think it sums it up nicely.
I’m in love.

6. Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead

Aint-Nobody-Got-Time-for-That
There’s how many books in this series?! Everyone loves it, so I want to read it , I really want to.
But it’s just such a commitment!

7. Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi

Excited I'll Get To It Gif
I’ve heard so, so many great things about this series from reviewers I trust, and I own them all ready to binge-read. I’m. So. Excited.

8. Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins 

Don't Care Gif
I’ve debated this one – I’ve had people tell me I have to read it, I’ve decided I will, I’ve decided I won’t – I’ve not gone out of my way to buy it. If I get to it, I get to it.

9. Northern Lights by Philip Pullman

I Want One Gif
It’s been a long time since I’ve read this series (wouldn’t mind a reread actually…) but the only significant thing I remember is really wanting my own Pan.

10. We Were Liars by E. Lockhart

What The Fuck Just Happened Gif
But in a good way. A quick, enjoyable and mind-boggling read, the Inception of books.

My Picks for the People I Tag are:

1. Maybe Someday by Colleen Hoover
2. Delirium by Lauren Oliver
3. Beautiful Disaster by Jamie McGuire

      I’m a big fan of them too. You should do a response as well 🙂 There’s so many people I want to tag in these that I just wish I could tag my entire Bloglovin’ feed! R x

      Ahhhh I forgot to tag you in this didn’t I?! Argh. Tag!!! Lol

      There is like 10 books in that series isn’t there? And then there’s the spin-off series too? I don’t think my TBR can handle that right now! Lol R x

    I have been tagged for this SO much and I just never get around to doing it. Ahhh! SHAME ON ME. *glares at self* But I so want to do it. I love your picks. x)
    Ohh. But YES TO THRONE OF GLASS. That gif was made for it, totally was. It even says glass. And the emotion for that series? Gah. ‘Scuse me, I just need to flail again. XD

      You should do a big master post of all the ones you’ve been tagged in, it would be Gif-Overload! You should do it, you love gifs!

      That gif for TOG just summed the whole thing up perfectly! The fact it even says glass was just too good to ignore. I haven’t even read book 2 or 3 yet, I own them, but I’m drawing out the agony of the wait for the next one, and I need a break in-between books to recover from the feels! R x

    Lol!!! Okay, so… I have a confession: I’m allergic to Gifs. I shall try my best to get over the aversion. Perhaps, I can just find pictures and such and put my graphics on it? Would that work?

      Lol! I was wondering if someone I tagged might be! I know they aren’t to everyone’s tastes. I’m sure you could adapt it – do stills with funny sayings over it like a meme. That would work 🙂

    How fun!! I love your gifs! You have to read Anna. I won’t give up on convincing you of that. 😉

    BTW – did you see Colleen announced a novella she’s releasing next week? It has to do with Maybe Someday. Surprise!! I can’t wait!!

    Thanks for tagging me! I’ll have fun with this one. 🙂

      Thanks! 😀

      Oh yes, how could I forget that you were/are an Anna fan??

      I saw a post and recognised a book release – but wasn’t sure what it was for, she’s a writing MACHINE these days. Checked it out after you said it was for Maybe Someday, but it’s called Maybe Not. That does not sound good at all. I’m scared.

      Looking forward to seeing your post! R x

    Haha! YAY! So happy you finally did this tag, it’s one of my favourites. I could do this tag over and over again and not get bored. I especially love your We Were Liars gif, completely accurate haha! I wanted a Pan so badly too, I still do!

      I know! I have so many more to catch up on, but I love gifs! I could too, I was going to re-tag you in mine because it’s different books, so actually, if you want to give it a go, work away!! 😀 R x

    I block read The Hunger Games too, thank God I only found them after all 3 were out. I could not have waited! The Deathly Hallows still makes me emotional to think about it but I think it was a perfect wrap up to an amazing series. Fangirl…I was in the 3 star minority. Pride and Prejudice is on to read also, I have read it but it was yonks ago. I’ll probably go the audio route as there is a great narrator on the Jane Austen books which makes them a lot more enjoyable. Throne of Glass I want to get to SOON. Vampire Academy, I read a few pages and didn’t really care enough to continue. Under the Never Sky is such a rock solid series and I love how unique it is. Anna and the French Kiss is good, the characters are great, the setting is fab but I just wanted more from it. Northern Lights I don’t know, is it a TV series also? And We Were Liars…YES…that’s just how I felt!

    Thanks for the tag. I have it scheduled for 9 Dec 🙂

      Same! I bought the three together on a whim because of all the great reviews just before I started blogging.

      It was a great wrap-up, but I would still love more books from this world.

      I just don’t know if Fangirl will appeal to me, from what I’ve read I’m not super excited by it, though I know it has a lot of fans and good reviews.

      GET TO THRONE OF GLASS, WOMAN!

      Northern Lights has a movie adaptation, but I’ve never seen it.

      Looking forward to it! 😉
