My birthday is this week, so I decided to do the Bookish Birthday Party Tag! I got it from Kristen at Metaphors & Moonlight months ago and saved it for this wondrous occasion. π
This is how you play according to Kristen:
“For this tag, you just need to choose five different books. Then, for each question, you open the corresponding book to a random page and follow the instructions for the answer. At the end, tell us how well you think your party turned out!”
My Books
1. First Grave on the Right
2. Black Iris
3. Corrupt
4. Hounded
5. Red Rising
1. Open Book 1 β The first character name on the page is the one who plans the surprise party.
First Grave – chapter 3 – Garrett
I’m not sure how well that would go. It would probably just end up being beer and pizza. Still a good party, but not much planning involved.
2. Open Book 2 β The first character name on the page is the one who ruins the surprise early (either by accidentally mentioning it or by telling you on purpose because they canβt keep a secret).
Black Iris – 27% – Blythe.
She would do it on purpose and have a shady ulterior motive for doing so.
3. Open Book 3 β Wherever the current scene takes place will be the location of the party (as specific as possible, e.g. a personβs house, a grocery store, the middle of a forest, etc.).
Corrupt – chapter 4 – Technically it’s in the elevator, but no thanks. So it’s getting moved to Michael’s penthouse, where the elevator was going.
Woohoo! Penthouse party! Also, there’s a naked woman waiting in the living room, so …. she could be a party decoration. π
4. Open Book 4 β The first character name on the page is the one who bakes the cake.
Hounded – chapter 2 – the Morrigan “Celtic Chooser of the Slain and goddess of war”.
Well, we’ll either survive or we won’t. Who knows what would be in it.
5. Open Book 5 β The first character name on the page is the one who sticks their finger in the icing when no one is looking.
Red Rising – chapter 20 – Cassius.
Of course he would, and he’d think he’d have every right to. Then the Morrigan can deal with him.
6. Open Book 1 β The first character name on the page is the one who buys trick candles (those kinds that never go out).
First Grave – chapter 11 – Cookie.
I feel like she’d accidentally buy them because she’d be on the phone trying to deal with 100 things while shopping. No one would realize it, then it would turn into an ordeal when the candles wouldn’t blow out.
7. Open Book 2 β The first noun on the page that is a tangible object is the first gift you open.
Black Iris – 64% – Drugs “X. Oxy Morphine. Heroine. Coke. Meth.”
Good times!
8. Open Book 3 β The first character name on the page is the one who puts on the dorky party hat.
Corrupt – chapter 12Β – Kai.
Hopefully that’s all he’d be wearing. Happy Birthday to me!
9. Open Book 4 β The first noun or adjective (whatever works) on the page is what the party theme will be.
Hounded – chapter 6 – Phoenix Zoo.
A zoo theme, eh? There could be furries! π
10. Open Book 5 β The first noun on the page that is a tangible object is what the pinata will be filled with.
Red Rising – chapter 23 – Wine.
It technically says “a fly in wine”, but meh. Let there be wine!
How Did the Party Turn Out?
Sounds fun to me!
Haha this does sound like it turned out pretty awesome! I love that your first gift is drugs, lmao. Penthouse totally counts π Anyway, beer, pizza, drugs, wine, naked people, possibly wild animals (zoo theme sounds pretty cool, actually)… I think you’re in for a pretty wild party π Happy birthday!
LOL I really hope Iβm invited, Christy, I think this sounds like fun too. And you wouldnβt be too upset with me if I didnβt eat the cake, right?
Not sure if my gift will be ever to top your first ? gift, though… I might have some cannabis cigarettes, but they mostly make people sleepy π
Happy birthday to you indeed {{{hugs}}}
This is awesome!!! I think your party sounds pretty damn good. I mean there is wine so I am in. I have to do this for my birthday coming up. Happy birthday!!!
Oh my gosh I love this and so many of the characters would really do or say those things LOL! Happy Birthday Christy! Hope it is a fabulous one and you get to spend some time with your son and other loved ones. π
This is so much fun! I’m totally coming to your party! π Happy Birthday, Christy!
Oh gosh, a pinata of wine and drugs for gifts! It certainly sounds like a WILD party for sure – good thing you have a zoo theme, right?
Happy Birthday!!!
Sounds like a great party π Happy birthday!
Wow that sounds like some party!! LOL Can I come?
You made me laugh girlfriend. I am all down for that cake baked by the Morrigan. The naked lady in the penthouse as a decoration is too funny.

Haha cute tag! Hope you had a fantastic birthday!!
Haha! That’s a party alright! Fun tag! Hope your birthday was amazing and your RL party was just as good π
A pinata of wine? Nice! And party decorations lol. Beer and pizza… I’ll be right over. π
