Feature and Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by two blogs, Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read. This week, I have the honor of being the featured blogger... yay!!
Part of my job as a feature is to answer a few questions about my blogging life so, here are my responses:
When did you start blogging?
I started blogging about three years ago and it was instantly addicting. It was an entire new world of ways to share my book thoughts with others who share the same passion. Love it!
What is your favorite part of book blogging?
My favorite part of book blogging is the ability to share my thoughts. When I read a good book and I come across something that strikes me, I want to share that moment with others. I don't come from a family of readers so I now feel like I have a community or readers who blog just for the purpose of sharing their books and thoughts with others.
What type of books do you blog about?
I review a lot of the books I read, some ARC but mostly my own purchases. I especially love anything with a paranormal element to it. I also enjoy many other genre as well. You can see from my blog archive that I have a mix of YA, Urban Fantasy, Realistic Fiction, Mystery, Historical fiction, etc... Right now, I'm reading The Girl on the Train and it is fabulous! I often participate in other memes such as Teaser Tuesday and Waiting on Wednesday.
What are your favorite books?
Favorite books, hmmm.... that's tough so I will just list a few that I love (well, maybe more than a few). Interview with a Vampire by Anne Rice, The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern, The Winter Sea by Susanna Kearsley, Silver Linings Playbook by Matthew Quick, and Miss Peregine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs. Oh! and all of the Percy Jackson books, Hunger Games, Mortal Instruments... too many to choose from!
What has been one of the best things that has happened to you because of book blogging?
One of the best things to happen in my blogging world aside from just joining this great community of readers is becoming part of the She Reads Blog Network at SheReads.org. I love being part of this group and sharing the reviews for our club reads with other bloggers.
And now... this week's question
If you could have any animal in the world as a pet, what would you pick?
Well, I think I would choose a Savannah Cat.
This is a mix between a wild Serval and a domestic cat. It's big and acts more like a dog and has beautiful markings. You can read about them here if you like.
