Cristina from Girl in the Pages Twitter: @girlinthepages | Instagram: @girlinthepages Tell me a little about yourself: Hi I’m Cristina and I run the Young Adult book blog Girl in the Pages! I was an English major and college and wanted to create a space where I could keep writing after I graduated, and so my blog was born! My love of reading started before I could even read (I used to flip through picture books and make stories up out loud) and my love of YA started around age 8 when I discovered Harry Potter and The Princess Diaries. I finally got to merge my love of scholarship and YA literature together by writing my senior thesis on Harry Potter! When I’m not blogging or reading I’m traveling, watching the Food Network, going on adventures with my boyfriend, or planning some sort of Disney trip! Talk about your blog (what you blog about/kinds of books, features, etc.): My blog was mainly created as a space where I could merge my love of Young Adult literature and academic scholarship, which for some reason many people find mutually exclusive! I think there’s so many fantastic […]

I’m Brittany and I’ve been blogging for ALMOST three years now at The Book Addict’s Guide (3 years in April!). I read a little bit of everything — from YA to adult, contemporary to fantasy to sci-fi — and you’ll find it all on my blog (and more). I just got married in November and it really was an awesome day! I love the color blue, books (of course), Harry Potter, The Princess Bride, camping, homebrewing & craft beer, and pretending I will catch up on all of the TV shows I started and never finished. Talk about your blog (what you blog about/kinds of books, features, etc.): I actually started blogging when I was reading mostly adult cozy mysteries and YA dystopian. I started reading YA when I could ONLY find dystopian books in the YA section (The Hunger Games got me HOOKED) and then I discovered how amazing YA was and it stuck! I still read some adult here and there but more fantasy lately than anything. I’ll read a little […]

V.Walker from V.Walker Views & Reviews Twitter: @VWalkerViews | Instagram: @VWalkerViews | Facebook Tell me a little about yourself: I just started blogging a few months ago and am still learning all the ins and outs of it.  I’m also writing my very own novel, which is a contemporary romance (and have ideas for a fantasy series also).  I’m usually found reading, writing, or marathoning something on Netflix (usually while sitting next to my husband). Talk about your blog (what you blog about/kinds of books, features, etc.): My blog is a mix between book reviews (YA, fantasy, paranormal, and romance genres), some of my own writing (little bits and pieces), and my writing journey.  I started a new feature called Adventures of a Writing Blogger, which is a monthly post about adventures that I have outside of book reviews & writing. Favorite genre: I absolutely adore the fantasy genre.  I’m a huge fan of witches, and an even bigger fan of alternate worlds (see: Middle Earth).  I’m also a pretty big fan of contemporary romances & paranormal/urban fantasy romances (like the Dark Hunter series by Sherrilyn Kenyon). Three books you recommend most often and why: I just read Some Boys by Patty Blount […]
