Introducing... BOOK JUNKIE

What drew you into the book blogging world?
It was about a year ago that I started my blog, at first I just felt like I wanted to put my own thoughts and reviews down online. I didn’t know if anyone would follow and honestly not sure I cared because I was and still have this feeling deep down and no one wants to hear what I have to say, that no one will read it anyway so what the heck. Then I started skimming around and saw all the contests, well I was over the moon excited, free books! Get outta here! I was all over it, and the people I meet were so helpful and amazing I couldn’t be happier that I took that first step.

What's your favorite part about book blogging?
I would have to say the interaction, authors, other bloggers. You put a call out for help with someone and 10 people write you back instantly. Everyone is so kind and I love how everyone is just so excited about books! It’s my happy place.

Who's your favorite author?
Right now I am all over Keta Diablo, she found me! I was asked to do a review for her and I haven’t looked back, there isn’t a story I haven’t fallen in love with and I can’t work my way through her backlist fast enough. She writes everything from erotic historical to erotic paranormal. My others are Shiela Stewart and Shelli Stevens, I can pick up ANY of their books and know that I will be taken away even if only for a moment into their world. Again never been disappointed!

What kind of fiction are you into? or are you a nonfiction reader?
I am pretty much a fiction freak, contemporary romance, erotic, historical, western, mystery and paranormal. I am open and finally this last year spread my wings in the historical a year ago I wouldn’t touch them. But to be honest I can’t take the ones that are a little to rich on the historical facts, often times losing the essence of the story.

If you could change your name what would you go by?
Wow, what a great question… I would have to say Ryan. I grew up watching Ryan’s Hope (the old Soap Opera….aging myself I know), at my grandma’s. I always loved that name for a girl.

IF you could have an AWESOME super power what would it be?
Oh, I so know this, I would be invisible. Think of all the things you could get away with!!!

What is your guilty pleasure?
Extra dark chocolate covered strawberries at the Godiva shop in the mall. Just one makes me happy…. Until I finish it and want another and another!

why should I visit your blog?
I would hope you would visit because you like my reviews, or even to get some possible ideas to grow your own TBR list perhaps introduce you to an author you might not have known even existed. I try to spread my wings a bit and not go so mainstream all the time, a lot of ebook authors need some love too!

And.. anything else you'd like to add?
Thanks you for this opportunity! I am truly thrilled and everyday I am meeting someone knew out there in the blog world and making new friends. I hope readers enjoy my blog and the contests I run. I have had a wonderful first year and I hope to continue!!!
