Welcome to This is YOUR song, a book meme hosted by Lizzy’s Dark Fiction.  Meme name is inspired by the Elton John song.  Here, I find that perfect song to fit some of the most popular books. I’ll pick 5 books from different genres or age groups and match them with the song that I think describes the book the best.

#1 –  Animal Farm  |  The Giving Tree  |  Christ the Lord:  Out of Egypt  |  New Moon  |  Shatter Me

#2 – Slammed  |  50 Shades of Grey  |  Alice in Zombieland  |  Revealing Eden  |  Cinder

#3 – Everneath  |  Hunger Games  |  Noughts and Crosses  |  Eve Hallows  |  Anna Dressed in Blood
