What is a book tag?

What is a book tag?
A book tag is a short list of themed prompts — “a ripper you couldn't put down”, “a comfort re-read” — that readers answer with books they've read. It started as a social-media game and it's an easy way to share a month of reading in one post.
How does the BookYarn tag work?
Every month we publish a new theme with 15 prompts. You keep the nine that suit your reading, search for each book, and download a print-quality card to share on Instagram, Facebook or Pinterest. No account needed.
Can I still do an older tag?
Yes. Every tag keeps its own page forever, so you can fill in Winter Down Under whenever you like, or browse the full archive.
