Hi everyone! This is Demmi (@demmi_writist on Instagram) and I'll be filling in for Tasha today! Like Marne did on her guest post on Sunday, I'm gonna start by introducing myself. My name is Demmi, I live in Greece, I am undeniably obsessed with anything bookish, my current favorite author is Sarah J Maas (I adore all her books and characters) and my absolute favorite book series ever (and also the one that has influenced my bookish life the most) is none other than Harry Potter of course! Big surprise right?
Anyways, let's get to business! I wanted to do something different than the usual discussion, so how about some bookish fun? Have you guys heard of a game called Kiss, Marry, Kill? If not, allow me to introduce you to it. It’s quite simple, really. Usually, a friend of yours has to present you with a set of three people (celebrities, movie characters etc) and all you have to do is decide which one you’d kiss, which one you’d marry and which one you’d kill. I’ve already done this on my own blog and it was extremely fun to play, so I decided to share it here too! And of course I’m going to be doing it with book characters. I asked my best friend to pick some characters from me and I also randomly picked a few using a random name picker. You can do that too, since it's super easy! So, here we go: Round 1 Kaz (Six of Crows) Khalid (The Wrath and the Dawn) Will (The Infernal Devices) Starting off super hard because I absolutely adore all three of these characters. How ever am I gonna choose? Okay, okay. I know that I’d definitely marry Will (because he’s Will and I couldn’t possibly live without him) and I’d probably kiss Khalid. Shahrzad has established he’s a pretty good kisser and plus he’s the King of Kings. Who wouldn’t want to hit it off with the King of Kings? And yeah, as much as it pains me, I would probably kill Kaz mainly because he’d never let me kiss him (or even touch him) and because I’m pretty sure he would annoy the hell out of me at some point. I love him but he is infuriating! Round 2 Adrian (Vampire Academy) Maxon (The Selection Dorian (Throne of Glass) Another really hard choice. I already know I’d kiss Adrian but here comes the dreadful decision of whether I would kill Maxon or Dorian. I love them both the same and they are both princes. But I’d probably marry Dorian because he’s also a bookworm and we’d never run out of things to talk about. Sorry, Maxon but I’m gonna have to kill you. Just because I can’t kill neither Dorian nor Adrian. Round 3 Dorian Aedion Rowan Looks like we have a Throne of Glass round. Without Chaol and thank goodness for that because I can never decide between him and Dorian. Although, I'm leaning fairly more towards Dorian, to be honest. This is slightly easier than the first two rounds. I’d definitely marry Dorian (again!) and then I’d probably kiss Aedion because I loved him in Queen of Shadows. Sorry guys, but I’m not an obsessed fun of Rowan. I do like him a lot and I think he’s great with Celaena but I like the other three guys more. Of course, Celaena would probably kill me if I killed her other half but I’ll take my chances. I can worry about that after I finish this blog post. Round 4 June (Legend) Celaena (Throne of Glass) Isabelle (The Mortal Instruments) This should be fun. I’d have no problem kissing either Celaena or Isabelle but I don’t think I would want to marry Isabelle so I’d kiss her and marry Celaena. Because she’s badass and awesome and a ‘fire breathing bitch queen’. I don’t mind the bitch part at all. And yeah, I’d probably kill June because she’s the one I feel less connected to. Round 5 Four (Divergent) Day (Legend) Justine (Gameboard of the Gods) Boy, I’m having trouble with this one too. I love al three of these. I already know I’d kiss Day because I’d never want to kill him and I don’t think he’s mature enough for me to marry either. And then I’d probably marry Four because I loved him in Divergent even though he did get in my nerves in Allegiant. Sorry, Justine but I’m gonna have to kill you. You’re pretty awesome but I don’t think I could put up with your drug and drinking habits for too long. Round 6 Sebastian (The Mortal Instruments) Voldemort (Harry Potter) Draco Malfoy (Harry Potter) Going dark side for this one. But this is easy. I’d definitely kill Voldemort without second thought. I mean, seriously? Why would anyone want to marry or kiss him? And then I’d kiss Sebastian and I’d marry Draco. Because I believe that Draco is the more normal one between these two and he is not trying to destroy the world. Round 7 Clarkson Schreave (The Selection) Amarantha (A Court of Thorns and Roses) The Darkling (The Grisha Trilogy) Another batch of villains. This is a bit harder but I’d definitely kill Amarantha (I absolutely hate her) and I’d kiss Clarkson. I hate him too but I’ve also read Happily Ever After and he was pretty decent in The Queen. And of course I’d marry the Darkling! He’s hands down my favortie villain of all times and I just can’t help but love him! Round 8 Harry Potter Rhysand (A Court of Thorns and Roses) Wolf (The Lunar Chronicles) Ah no, no, no! Why? I don’t want to kill either of them. Do I have to do this? Okay, I’ll do it but I have no idea how. Well, I think I’d marry Harry. I mean he’s Harry Potter and I’d never forgive myself for killing him. And now I’m supposed to decide whether I’d kill Wolf or Rhysand? Ugh, alright. I guess I’d kill Wolf and Kiss Rhysand. I love Wolf but I just cannot bring myself to kill Rhysand so… Sorry, Wolf. Round 9 Christian (Vampire Academy) Tamlin (A Court of Thorns and Roses) Matthias (Six of Crows) Here we go again. Why does this have to be so hard? Okay, I’d definitely marry Christian. He was my favorite in Vampire Academy and I’ve always loved his bad boy attitude. And I guess I’d kiss Matthias and kill Tamlin. I haven't read ACOMAF yet but I've heard he's annoyed a lot of people and I already said I’m a Rhysand girl anyway. And I’d hate myself if I killed Matthias so… Round 10 Elias (An Ember in the Ashes) Theo (A Thousand Pieces of You) Gale (The Hunger Games) Hmm okay. That’s a good batch but it’s not that hard to sort out. I’d definitely marry Gale because he has always been my favorite in The Hunger Games and I think he deserves a happy ending after the way things ended with him and Katniss in Mockingjay. And I’d probably kiss Elias because I loved him in An Ember in the Ashes and I thought he has a great personality. And I’d have to kill Theo because, even though I did like him for the most part of the story, things got a bit confusing with him in the end. And I would never have chosen him over Paul anyway. That was it guys! Hope you had fun with this because I certainly did! Happy reading and blogging, Demmi.

Hi there! So I am standing in for Tasha today and she asked me to do a guest post for her. So I think that I should introduce myself to you before we actually get into anything amazing. Hi I am Marne but I post under the name Melleny because I like it. On Instagram I am known as @abooktropolis01 and my website is www.abooktropolis01.blogspot.co.za. I also have a YouTube channel (Abooktropolis), if you want to look at that too.
It took me while to think this post out because I had to think of Tasha's audience. It was super difficult until I remember that if you are looking at this blog, then clearly you like books. So there you go! I hope you enjoy this post and that I get to see you all over on my blog! Why I decided to join the Book Community: A lot of us who you see on these blogs, Instagram, youtube and twitter all started pretty much the same. A face behind the screen, scrolling through their feed. I remember how I had finally decided to join the community last year. I was sitting on my bed, watching YouTube on my laptop. I was catching up my subscriptions of all the boo tubers that I watch and then it just hit me. A single thought raced through my mind. Getting louder and louder with each passing second. I quickly brought my laptop closer to me and opened gmail. I thought if I was going to do this, I was going to do it right. So there I was sitting, creating not only a gmail but a YouTube Channel, a Website, a Tumblr and an Instagram. As I slowly got accustomed to the community, all I could feel was this sense belonging. Every week I got more more followers on all of my sites. And suddenly I went from having maybe 50 followers on Instagram to over a hundred in under a month. People just started to follow me. That was the moment when I Knew that I had found my niche. I now have over 500 hundred followers on my Instagram and everyday it’s growing. When I told my parents and best friend, they were all super supportive of me and even helped me through my first giveaway. My thoughts on the community and Why I think you should join:
Why I prefer Instagram over everything else:
This community is absolutely amazing and if there was one thing that I could change… Then I would wish I had started this journey a lot earlier Yours in Reading, Melleny |
