Yes. This is me. (Haha, I didn't even me to do that!) The person who you really haven't seen a lot these last two months...
May and June have been hectic. And I haven't been in a blogging mood. But, I'm back now and (hopefully) for the rest (most) of the summer!
Getting down to business. On Monday, my family and I finally saw The Greatest Showman.
...
...
IT WAS AMAZING!!!!! I really enjoyed it and cried a lot. Just because that is what I do when I watch movies.
But, I can't get the songs un-stuck from my head, which is fortunate that Hamlette tagged me with The Greatest Showman Book Tag!!! Thank you so much Hamlette!!! (She loves it as much as I do. Probably more.)
The Greatest Showman Book Tag:
This tag was made by Eva at Classics, Coffee, and Craziness.
Rules are:
Answer the questions.
Tag whoever you want .
Using her graphic is optional, but recommended.
'The Greatest Show': Name a book that’s as entertaining as a circus:
A Riddle in Ruby - by Kent Davis. It has been awhile since I read this, but I do remember it being hectic. It was funny, entertaining, confusing, and crazy.
'A Million Dreams': Name a book that’s set in a fantastical world:
Peter Pan - by J. M. Barrie.
'Come Alive': Name a book that makes you outrageously happy:
Flipped - by Wendelin Van Draanen. I don't know why, but I love this and the movie so much.
'The Other Side': Name a book that changed your mind about something:
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - by J. K. Rowling. I didn't really like the Harry Potter books up until the last half of this book. It is amazing.
'Never Enough': Name a book that you’ve re-read more than once:
I don't usually re-read books. I love them, but I just want to read new things. I can't think of any book that I have re-read more than once. But, if I do re-read a book once it means I like it.
Here are some that I have re-read:
Holes - by Louis Sachar
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland - by Lewis Carroll
The Penderwicks - by Jeanne Birdsall
Ella Enchanted - by Gail Carson Levine
The Chronicles of Narnia - by C. S. Lewis
'This Is Me': Name a book with a character that reminds you of yourself:
Fanny Price from Mansfield Park - by Jane Austen. She and I are so alike! (Though, what does she see in Edmund?)
(Here is a list of more people I am like.)
'Rewrite the Stars': Name a book with a forbidden romance:
Hm... forbidden? I can't really think of one.
The Little Mermaid - by Hans Christen Anderson. The original. It is stunningly beautiful!
'Tightrope': Name a book with an adventurous main character:
Janie from The Apothecary - by Maile Meloy. By the way, it's a really good book.
'From Now On': Name a book with a wonderful family (related or otherwise):
The Lord of the Rings - by J. R. R. Tolkein. They aren't really related, but all the characters have such fellowship for each other. I'm fitting this into the "otherwise" bit of this question.
(Just to let you know, I could have answered The Chronicles of Narnia for all of these questions.)
I tag:
Elanor: she told me again and again to watch it.
Lilah: because she is the musical expert.
Anyone who saw it for the first time recently.
Thanks for the tag, Hamlette!
Hm, notice anything different?
My little sister made me a new header!!! Isn't it great! It perfectly combines my love of books and movies!
That's all folks!
MovieCritic
Welcome back! Your new header looks amazing. :D
ReplyDeleteI like the Greatest Show, but I'm sick of it right now because my siblings won't stop blasting the soundtrack. XD
Thanks, Gray! :D
DeleteI totally know what you mean. A few years ago my sisters and I watched Les Mis. They learned every. single. song. And would not stop playing them! I finally banned Les Mis. XD
I'll add this to my drafts! So glad you saw it at last. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd I do love the header! All the Disney books from the movies!! (But which one do you think is my favorite?) It's such a cute idea!
I am, too! It really was enjoyable. I'm excited to see your answers!
DeleteMy sister did a great job! I love her ideas. :) Your favorite? Hm... is it Snow White?
Aaaahhhhh, I LOVE your header!!!!! It's everything goals <3 <3
ReplyDeleteFun answers! :)
Thanks! I love it too! She made me two different ones, but I love this one! :D
DeleteThanks, Olivia! <3
I can't get the Greatest Showman songs out of my head!!- Jose
ReplyDeleteJose, same!! They are just stuck there!
DeleteFun tag, and I love the new header!!
ReplyDeleteCatherine
Thanks Catherine! My sister is so glad everyone loves it. :D
DeleteFUN TAG! I just saw the Greatest Showman twice since it came out on DVD. Love it - and the tag!
ReplyDeleteIf I find time, I just may steal it. ;)
It is so good! I could definitely watch it a second time!
DeleteDefinitely steal it if you have time! This tag was a lot of fun to do, and I would enjoy reading your answers. :)
Oh my goodness, I LOVE this tag! I may have to steal it!!!
ReplyDeleteLove your answers. <3
Isn't it such a cool idea!? I'm so glad Eva came up with it.
DeleteThanks! Please take it, I would love to see yours! :D
I usually hate musicals, but I actually liked the greatest showman. - June
ReplyDeleteUsually I only like pre-1970's musicals, but this one was really great! Thanks for commenting, June.
DeleteI haven't read many of these, love finding more books.
ReplyDeleteGreat tags!
That is the best thing about book tags, you learn about new books! Thanks, Skye! :D
DeleteI saw "The Greatest Showman" recently as well and liked it. The songs are so catchy! I loved pretty much all of them. And yeah, I know- I probably could have used the Narnia books for each of my answers as well. :) Some things are just timeless...
ReplyDeleteEver since watching it, a day hasn't gone by that I don't have one of the songs stuck in my head. They are really catchy! Since you watched it recently, please take this tag!! The Narnia books are so amazing! Definitely classics. :)
