May is the month of new beginnings or fresh starts. Could you suggest a book with themes about growth, renewal, or personal transformation?? If you haven’t read this book, you’re probably thinking I just added the last book I read, but that’s not true. I read this one and the personal growth in this is…
You are in a dilemma: stream your favorite TV show or movie, or read your favorite book. Which one do you pick? Ok I’m going to be a weirdo and pick my favorite show, WHILE I read. Because then I can keep reading different books and not really have to actually pick a favorite book….
Do you think contemporary book covers lack originality?? No. Because they have real people on the cover. I don’t think they lack originality. There’s people, there’s the scenery, so many things you can do with it and so many artists and so many styles, etc. Just like any other kind of books. They’ve been done…
If you could live in any book, which one would you pick and why?? Ummm what? How am I supposed to do this? Like just one? Yeahhhh not happening. I think I’m going to say something more like “any fantastical place.” Anywhere that’s not the current reality I have. Because Lordt knows this shit is…
In elementary school, did you participate in the Book-It! reading program? I might have. I went to a Catholic school and they might have been getting them for us, but I don’t remember ever getting a thing that said I could have a pizza. Most of my celebrations of reading came from me visiting the…
Which has more power over readers: a book blogger or a professional critic? I think bloggers do. Why? The readers could feel they’re more personable and can relate to them more. I’m pretty sure most readers don’t seek out professional reviews, they see a pretty picture on Instagram, a video with a cute quote on…
Do you remember your first library visit? Not at all. I don’t remember a time I wasn’t going to the library. My mom used to take me to Toddler Times at my home library, and I just never stopped. What about you? Do you remember? Let me know in the comments!
Do you use a book’s synopsis for your review?? I used to. Until people started getting “mad” about it across the internet. They said, they’ve already read the synopsis, so why do they need to read it again. (Which is hilarious because I didn’t even think about that because I DON’T read the synopsis lol)…
What was your gateway book—the book that made you want to read more—into reading or into a specific genre? To be completely honest, I can’t remember a time where I wasn’t reading. I learned at 4 or before and have been reading ever since. The book that stuck out most to me was always Goodnight…
How do you organize your bookshelves? In true librarian fashion I put them in alphabetical order by author’s last name. And I also have a section for graphic novels and non-fiction. I DO put my MG, YA, and Adult fiction altogether tho. I have too many to try to seperate them lol What about you?…
