I was tagged by Krysti at YA and Wine (who also happens to be the creator of this fabulous tag!) and haven’t stopped thinking of it since! Strong kick ass girls are always a big motivator for me in books. I grew up watching Disney movies but never seemed to relate to the princesses. It was always the girls who took matters into their own hands, fought with their hands or their minds, and showed incredible amounts of strength that I admired.
The rules:
- Thank the person who tagged you
- Mention the creator Krysti at YA and Wine
- Match at least one YA girl with each of the themes below
- Tag as many people as you like
WARRIOR GIRLS
Manon – Throne of Glass
Helene – An Ember in the Ashes
GIRLS WHO FIGHT WITH THEIR MIND
Art3mis – Ready Player One
Cress – The Lunar Chronicles
GIRLS WHO FIGHT WITH THEIR HEART
Feyre – A Court of Thorns and Roses
Shazi – The Wrath and the Dawn
GIRLS WHO ARE TRAINED FIGHTERS
Celeana Sardothian – Throne of Glass
Isabelle Lightwood – City of Bones
STRONG GIRLS OF COLOUR
Starr Carter – The Hate you Give
Sarai – Strange the Dreamer
GIRLS WHO FIGHT TO SURVIVE
Eden – The Sandcastle Empire
Yeva – Hunted
GIRLS WHO ARE WEAPONS MASTERS
Kady – Illuminae
Katniss Everdeen – The Hunger Games
GIRLS WHO DON’T CONFORM TO GENDER ROLES
Mariko – Flame in the Mist
GIRLS WITH KICK ASS MAGICAL POWERS
Celia – The Night Circus
Hermoine – Harry Potter
STRONG GIRLS IN CONTEMPORARY NOVELS
Julia – You’re Welcome Universe
Dumplin – Dumplin
SERIOUSLY FIERCE GIRLS
Aylin G – Throne of Glass series
Cersei Lannister – Game of Thrones
MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK WITH A STRONG LEADING LADY
Warcross – Marie Lu
Wonder Woman – Leigh Bardugo
I’ve seen this tag all over the place lately so I don’t know who to tag and who’s already done it. So if this tag looks like fun then, TAG! You’re it!
Until next time, happy reading!
How didn’t I think of Hermione Granger???

Lol! I do that all the time! I think of the answers and I’m positive I have it all figured out – until I see someone else’s answers and then I question my abilities as a sound minded reader 😂

I feel like it happens a lot when I use reader on my phone, but on my laptop it’s fine. Most likely it’s just user error though honestly. 😉
