Hello Alan,
Tom rejected taking your book, didn't he/did he?
Dear teacher, I have two questions:
1) Which tag is more correct/standard?
2) Does the verb "reject" convey negative meaning and, if so, is the sentence considered negative?
Thanks.

Re: Tag question
Both tags are possible, but we say 'refused to take', not 'rejected taking'.
