Which YA Book Should You Read Next Based on Your Myers-Briggs Type?

Image
As quarantine rolls on, we all have to find things to occupy our time. I love to learn new, weird things, so given as excess of time, I will most assuredly develop a few new obsessions. One such new obsession is MBTI, or the Myers Briggs Type Indicator. The Myers Briggs test is a personality test that assigns you one of two letters for four different categories, making it possible to have sixteen unique “types.” The letter options are as follows: Extroverted vs Introverted, iNtuition vs Sensing, Thinking vs Feeling, and Judging vs Perceiving. Your type, or combination of these letters, is determined based on your answers to a number of questions that ask  for your level of agreement/disagreement with various statements. Since MBTI is the most accurate personality test I’ve ever taken (and I’ve taken a lot ), I thought it would be a useful tool for personalizing some book recommendations!             I am certainly not the fi...

Book recs based on my roommates' unhinged spotify playlists

Image
 If there are two things I'm good at, it's niche playlists and specifically tailored book recommendations. There's something about finding the perfect book to fit a vibe that is just so satisfying. I typically use this skill for good whenever I pick out birthday presents, but today I'm choosing chaos. I have taken the best, most unfiltered playlist titles my roommates and I have to offer, and selected book recommendations to go along with them. Some are more literal choices while others make me really stretch to make it work. Either way, it's some silly fun for me and maybe a new music/book recommendation for you! Enjoy.  If you want women toting lots of guns (as seems to be my taste in country music), then I have the book for you. Cynthia Hand and her coauthors’ take on Calamity Jane and Annie Oakley is one Miranda Lambert would be proud of. While this is technically the third book in the My Lady Janies series, each book can be read as a standalone. The 4th-wall-b...

Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard Book 1: The Sword of Summer

Image
   The time has come for a new era of Riordan. The first book in a Norse mythology series has been released, and wow did it impress me! It was exactly what I expected and nothing like I expected at the same time. Rick Riordan, you've done it again. You've woven a beautiful tale from the legends of generations passed. I simply cannot express how much I loved this book without revealing too much, so please, I beg you, pick up a copy of The Sword of Summer. *****SPOILERS*****     This book surprised me in so many ways. In a way, I was expecting another series starter like The Lightning Thief , but this....I don't want to say better because TLT will always have a special place in my heart, but in a way, it was. I've been saying for years, that Heroes of Olympus would make an amazing YA series if Riordan added cursing, slightly more gore, and more romance. Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard is fulfilling my dream. I struggled throughout the book, trying to est...
