The Firsts of 2023 Book Tag

Hello bookworms!!

I first saw Dini do this tag and I saved it so I wouldn’t forget about it but of course I did anyways but then Ali did it and it has stuck in my mind ever since. I wasn’t tagged by anyone but I thought it would be fun to look back all the way to the beginning of the year. This book tag was originally created by Tanya @girlxoxo. Without further delay lets get to the prompts shall we.

First Book Read This Year

The first book I read this year was Marlowe Banks, Redesigned by Jacqueline Firkins. This was a book that I got through NetGalley and I ended up enjoying it.

First Book Reviewed

On January 1 I shared a post where I reviewed 4 books that I read at the end of 2022 and you can find that post here. However, the first book that I reviewed in 2023 that I actually read in 2023 was Marlowe Banks, Redesigned by Jacqueline Firkins.

First Book By A Debut Author

I don’t think I have read any debut books this year.

First Book By A New-To-Me Author

The first book I read by a new to me author was Under One Roof by Ali Hazelwood. I’ve read 4 books by this author at this point and I’ve liked them all.

First Book That Slayed Me

I’m taking this as a book that broke my heart. And the first one that I remember really struggling to read because I was crying so much was Kingdom of Ash by Sarah J. Maas.

First Book That I Wish I Could Get Back The Time I Spent Reading It

Honestly this whole trilogy. Individually I liked them well enough but as a whole I was left very disappointed and by the last book it felt like a repeat of what happened in the first 2 books.
