👋🏽 Hello Community. Em here; I hope you are all well. This time, I bring you a little BookTag that I discovered on the blog Paseando entre Páginas. I thought the questions were fun, so I wanted to share my answers with you. If you feel like leaving yours, I'd love to read them!
1 . A book you love: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban⚡
This series will always be special to me, because it sparked my love of books.
2 . A book you didn't like: An Abundance of Katherines
I honestly don't know how I managed to finish it; I found it extremely boring. Although I usually enjoy John's stories, this one definitely wasn't for me.
3 . A book that everyone has read except you: Fourth Wing
With all the publicity this book received, it was inevitable that I would find out a few things about it. Although it's a “no” for me, never say never, right? 🤔
4 . A book you've been meaning to read: The Book Thief
This one has been on my TBR list forever; I feel like the right time to read it hasn't come yet.
5 . A book that made you cry: Mockingjay
Not only did I cry while reading this book, but I felt empty for about three days after finishing it. And the epilogue... 💔
6 . A book you read in two days or less: Persona Normal
This book is quite an experience; everyone should meet Uncle Paco.
7 . A book that took you a long time to finish: Insurgent 🔥
Considering that I did like Divergent, I thought this book would be much better, but it wasn't. It was endless, and I never managed to connect with Tris.
8 . Your favorite protagonist: Katniss Everdeen
She is brave, bitter, kind, exasperating, loyal, protective, and even a little selfish. Sometimes I wanted to yell at her, and other times, defend her from everything. However, it is precisely this complexity that makes her such a great character.
9 . Your favorite main character: Percy Jackson 🔱
I love Percy and his sarcasm. Although he should think a little more before acting on many occasions, his impulses are always for good reasons. That's part of his charm.
10 . Your favorite movie based on a book: Catching Fire – Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
I can't choose just one for this question, as the reasons are different but equally important:
Catching Fire (my favorite book) is, without a doubt, one of the best adaptations, not only of the series, but of film adaptations in general. It is very faithful to the book, but it also works very well as a movie. Francis Lawrence achieved the perfect balance.
On the other hand, although The Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite book and movie in the series, I think The Philosopher's Stone, as an adaptation, is a half step above. Chris Columbus managed to convey the essence of the book in a wonderful and magical way.
That's it for this BookTag. Do you agree with any of my answers? Let me know in the comments! Em ✨
👋🏽 Holaa Comunidad. Por aquí Em; espero que estén bien. En esta oportunidad, les traigo un pequeño BookTag que descubrí en el blog Paseando entre Páginas. Como las preguntas me parecieron divertidas, quise compartir con ustedes mis respuestas. ¡Si se animan a dejar las suyas, me encantaría leerlos!
1 . Un libro que amas: Harry Potter y el Prisionero de Azkaban ⚡️
Esta saga siempre será especial para mí, pues gracias a ella nació mi amor por los libros.
2 . Un libro que no te gustó: El Teorema Katherine
La verdad es que no sé cómo logré terminarlo; lo encontré sumamente aburrido. Aunque suelo disfrutar las historias de John, está definitivamente no era para mí.
3 . Un libro que todos han leído menos tú: Alas de Sangre
Con toda la difusión que tuvo este libro, fue inevitable que me enterara de algunas cosas. Aunque es un "no" para mí, nunca digas nunca, ¿cierto? 🤔
4 . Un libro que siempre estás por leer: La Ladrona de Libros
Este está en mi tbr (o lista de pendientes) desde siempre; siento que aún no ha llegado el momento correcto para leerlo.
5 . Un libro que te hizo llorar: Sinsajo
No solo lloré con este libro, sino que sentí un vacío como de tres días luego de terminarlo. Y el epílogo...💔
6 . Un libro que leíste en dos días o menos: Persona Normal
Este libro es toda una experiencia, todos deberían conocer a Tío Paco.
7 . Un libro que tardaste mucho en terminar: Insurgente 🔥
Considerando que sí me gustó Divergente, pensé que este libro estaría mucho mejor, pero no. Fue eterno y nunca logré conectar con Tris.
8 . La protagonista que más te gusta: Katniss Everdeen
Ella es valiente, amargada, buena persona, desesperante, leal, protectora y hasta un poco egoísta. A veces quería gritarle y otras, defenderla de todo. Sin embargo, es precisamente esa complejidad la que la convierte en un gran personaje.
9 . El protagonista que más te gusta: Percy Jackson 🔱
Yo amo a Percy y su sarcasmo. Aunque debería pensar un poco más antes de actuar en muchas ocasiones, sus impulsos siempre son por buenas razones. Eso es parte de su encanto.
10 . Tu película basada en un libro que más te gusta: En Llamas – Harry Potter y la Piedra Filosofal
Para esta pregunta no puedo elegir una sola, ya que las razones son diferentes, pero igual de importantes:
En Llamas (mi libro favorito) es, en definitiva, una de las mejores adaptaciones; y no solo de la saga, sino de las adaptaciones cinematográficas en general. Es muy fiel al libro, pero también funciona muy bien como película. Francis Lawrence logró el equilibrio perfecto.
Por otro lado, aunque El Prisionero de Azkaban es mi libro y película favorita de la saga, pienso que La Piedra Filosofal, como adaptación, está un medio escalón por encima. Chris Columbus logró transmitirme la esencia del libro de una forma maravillosa y mágica.
Hasta aquí llega este BookTag. ¿Concuerdan conmigo en alguna respuesta? ¡Déjenmelo saber en los comentarios! Em ✨
Ouuu, this looks fun.
Question 1: A book I love(This is tricky cause I love a lot of books😭😂) but should be Blood and Ash series and The cruel prince series.
Question 2: A book I didn't like — That should be Credence by Penelope Douglas and Twisted Love by Ana.
Question 3: Powerless or Quicksilver or the dark series. Used to be shatter me but I read it this summer.
Question 4: Alchemised and Quicksilver.
Question 5: Duplicity. I balled my eyes out.
Question 6: Tutoring the player
Question 7: Flesh and fire series and Blood and Ash. Jennifer just writes so much and there's not enough time in the world.
Question 8: (I don't think I can choose just one and I am undecided so I'll have to pass on this.)
Question 9: (Passing on this too. I have so many😭)
Question 10: The Maze Runner or Divergent:)
I did not get the finish Percy Jackson so I don't really know about it. But I will try it next year as I already have plans for this one🫠
What great options, very interesting. And if you can read Percy, I recommend it 100%. EM✨️
¡Ayyy, me encantó este tag! Coincido contigo en casi todas las respuestas (especialmente las de Potter porque siempre será mis libros favoritos) 😍 aunque varios de esos libros también me han marcado un montón (Sinsajo también me dejó en un shock del que jamás me recuperé).
Me dio nostalgia recordar algunas lecturas y ganas de releer otras. Qué gusto ver tus elecciones, además de que transmites ese entusiasmo lector en tus respuestas💕
Graciaas, que bueno que te gustó el tag!! Em✨️

Very cool idea for a post!
I didn't manage to finish The Book Thief, my opinion is that it's a bit overrated.
It was building up to some genuinely touching moments but overall it seemed a bit too simple as a book, I was expecting something different.
The truth is that looking at the horrors of the Holocaust and WWII from the perspective of a child was not exactly a novel idea, even in 2005.
Within the same genre, I enjoyed much more the movie Jojo Rabbit. I felt like there were more interesting choices there in terms of satire and humor and and the story was more engaging, overall.
There is one storytelling aspect that is unique to The Book Thief but it didn't do much for me.
Still, it's a book loved by many and it might be worth it for you to read it eventually.
