A few weeks ago I was tagged in the Desert Island Book Tag by Cinderzena (thanks by the way). I don’t read as much as I’d like & have 3 books on the go at the moment, about a month ago, I was approached at work to do the 6 books in 6 months challenge, which I signed up for but as of yet haven’t started! I know, I know, naughty but I will……………PROMISE!
Anyway, getting back to the tag……………I took inspiration for my questions from Cinderzenas questions (I hope you don’t mind?) & also from where she got hers!
Water – A book I absolutely need in my life
Oh my, where do I start with explaining how wonderful this collection is???………………..I think it’s everything a book should be………………….sustaining, food for thought, anticipating, scary, exciting (oh the excitement!) & if I was only allowed to read one book for the rest of my life……………………….the Harry Potter collection would be it! Cause the whole collection counts as one book…………………right??? 😉 You go through every single human emotion while you read these, they truly are thirst quenching!! ♥
Food – A book I call my favourite consumption
I couldn’t decide!!! Hehe.
I know, I know, i’m repeating myself with the Harry Potter but this collection really is food for thought for me, I find it so thought-provoking & it satisfies my every need!
The Twilight Saga does exactly the same thing for me as the Harry Potter Collection but with a more serious flavour. ♥
Companion – A book filled with characters I really would relish the company of while stuck on a desert island
Oh come on, who wouldn’t want to be stuck on a desert island with Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, ALL the Weasleys, Padfoot, Madeye, Moony, Prof Dumbledore & let’s not forget Luna Lovegood!!!
Let’s take a few seconds to appreciate the thought……………close your eyes & take long slow breaths, now imagine yourself on a desert island with the above named characters……………..imagine the smells, the sounds, the surroundings…………….now listen in on the conversations around you……………..Rons awkwardness towards Hermione & her wit with the situation, Padfoot & Moony sharing a joke & a memory about James, Dumbledore & Madeye reminiscing over old times, Fred & George concocting their latest invention, trying to persuade Harry to be a guinea pig (soooo hilarious) & Luna talking to Ginny, going on about her latest craze that no-one’s even heard of! Let’s not forget Molly (“you best hope I don’t put bars on your window Ronald Weasley!”……………….I know, but I do love that line in the films, I laugh every time!) Now, no-one can tell me that would not be so much fun & absolutely hilarious?!
This book is full of strong characters, coming together to help each other………………the perfect combination for being stuck on a desert island!
Threat – A book that scared me so much I couldn’t bare it but ended up conquering
It didn’t take me long to realise how scared of this book I was going to be & the reason for that is it actually happens! It took me over 2 years to read this because I had to read it in stages, it was too much for me to read it all in one go!
Weapon – A book that is massive & could be used as a weapon
I’ve chosen these books as my weapon because they are full to bursting with a massive amount of knowledge about the different food groups we eat & what they do to our bodies & minds.
It Starts With Food covers the science behind the different food types & how our bodies & minds react to the foods that we eat & The Whole30 outlines a programme that the authors suggest we follow for 30 days (hence the name Whole30) to enable us to take back control of our body & mind & free our bodies from any food related ailments…………….a note………..it’s not for the faint hearted! Hehe. The programme involves giving up on a number of problematic food groups but the up side is………….IT’S ONLY FOR 30 DAYS!!!
Compass – A book that started me off reading
I’d read some books growing up but it wasn’t until I read this book that I fell in love with reading & once I started, I couldn’t stop until I’d finished them all!
That’s it folks! These are the books I’d like with me whilst stuck on a desert island! 🙂
How about you………….
Bye for now.

I did indeed & I loved writing it. Once I got on a roll, it was easy. When you’ve read All Around The Town, you’ll have to let me know what you think.
