The Bedtime Reading Tag!


A Book That Kept You Up All Night Reading?
The Distant Hours by Kate Morton 
This book had me reading till the early hours of the morning till I finished it!
I remember getting up the next morning with Oisìn very very early an awful lot of caffeine was consumed that day! I only read it earlier this year but the book and author have become my favourites

A Book That Made You Scared To Go Asleep?
The Witches by Roald Dahl
I was a huge fan of Roald Dahl as a child I made my way through his books with speed!
I came to this book just after I saw the movie version (which also made me too scared to sleep)
It sat in my bedroom book shelf for a long time before I had the nerve to read in! In the end I asked my Dad to read in with me a bit each night like what we had done with The BFG. It still scared me as after reading it each night images of  Anjelica Huston revealing her witch form flooded my mind!

A Book That Made You Go Asleep?
The Misbegotten by Katherine Webb
One that comes to mind straight away is a book I tried to read this month
I do say try because after 100 pages of struggling to keep myself awake I put it down before finishing it. I was so disappointed because it sounded like something I would really enjoy but the pacing was so slow and all the characters unlikeable.

A Book That Made You Toss and Turn In Excitement For It's Release?
A Song Of War by Kate Quinn and other authors
I love most of Kate Quinn books she really knows how to tell a epic historical tale with a good twist.
Her books have love, war, friends, and bitter enemies! This one promises to have it all princes, slavers, lovers, the rich and poor. Along with Kate Quinn there is six other authors joining her to tell this epic tale.

A Book That Has Your Dream Boyfriend?
Outlander by Diana Gabaldon
Jamie Fraser of course!!
What's not to love about a hunky, Scottish red head!
Insert picture here to see what I mean!!

A Book That Would Be Your Worst Nightmare To Live In?
It By Stephen King
I have read this book but never actually seen the movie the book was enough for me!
Killer clowns, horrible abusive families and childhoods. It terrified me and I can never look at clowns the same way since!

A Book Cover That Reminds You Of Nighttime?
The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
While I haven't read this book yet its on my Autumn TBR
For the cover reminds me of night time with the black and white with hints of red

A Book That Has A Nightmarish Cliffhanger?
Dragonfly In Amber by Diana Gabaldon
I think I have gone on about this book in almost every book tag I have done!
Following on from Outlander this book just had me hooked from the very first page
Then that huge cliffhanger at the end of the book! I just loved it and am looking forward to reading the fourth book in the series in November!

A Book That You Actually Dreamt About?
The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux
As a huge Phantom fan since I was 12! I have had various dreams about this story,
some about the musical, some about the novel, and some scary ones after watching a horror movie version!

A Book Monster That You Would Not Want To Find Under Your Bed?
Penny Wise-IT by Stephen King
This little weirdo again! I think I would pee my pants and sleep with the lights on forever if I ever found this clown/alien/thing under my bed!
I off to think off happy things before bed!
