Disney princess book tag (part I)

Since I'm completely stressed out at the moment because of all the exams I have to study for, I'm gonna split this book tag into two even parts. I hope you don't mind that both posts will be pretty short and you'll enjoy it anyway! (Click here to get to the second part.)

Snow white: What's your favorite classic?

I absolutely love The great gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. The time period in which it takes place sounds amazing and I'd love to visit one of the fabulous parties. It's one of the first classics I've read and it definitely motivated me to start reading more classics.

Cinderella: What book kept you up way past your bed time?

It happens very often that I'm reading for way too long in the night and end up feeling horrible the next day in school. I'm not entirely sure, but I think the book that kept me up the longest is Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins which I finished at around 3:30 am when I read it for the first time a couple of years ago.

Aurora: What's your favorite classic romance?

A tale of two cities by Charles Dickens. I usually hate love triangles, but that one is just perfect and incredibly beautiful and sad and emotional and I love it. It's also the only love triangle where I actually like both guys equally. Another pretty cool aspect is that the book is set during the French Revolution, which is quite interesting.

Ariel: A book about sacrifices and fighting for your dreams

I think Celia and Marco from The night circus by Erin Morgenstern sacrifice a lot for each other and manage to build the world of their dreams in the circus and that's a really wonderful thing.

Belle: A book with a smart, independent female character

One of the only female characters I can think of who never did something really stupid is Margaery Tyrell from the A song of ice and fire series by George R.R. Martin. She's incredibly smart and despite her pretty young age she knows exactly how to achieve her goals and how to manipulate people for her purposes.

Jasmine: A character who challenges the social conventions of their world

 Kestrel from the Winner's trilogy by Marie Rutkoski certainly doesn't want to fit in the way her society pressures her to, so I guess it's no big suprise she ends up playing a part in a revolution.

Again, I'm sorry for keeping this so short, but hopefully you've enjoyed it. Have a lovely day!
