Getting to Know Conversations of a Reading Addict
I’ve gotten behind on doing the “Getting To Know You” posts and also keeping up with nonstop giveaways from posts like these and other posts. So I do apologize for that and as you’ve seen, I’m going to make some changes to these posts giveaways. Instead of print, I will be giving away digital. It’s simply easier for me to do it that way. So please note that these books will be gifted via the Kindle.
But these posts aren’t about getting something for free. They are about getting to know your fellow bloggers, so hopefully there isn’t a decrease in interest due to that change.
His name is Charlie. In case you didn’t get that.
Onward…
It’s getting to know you time!
Blogger of the Week:
Conversations of a Reading Addict
What country are you in?
Canada
How long have they’ve been blogging and rolling?
1 year and 5 months
Q1. Why did you start blogging?
I was interning at Harper Collins Canada and we had a blogger event. I met all of these amazing bloggers that seemed to live books as much as I do and I wanted to become a part of it. So that night I researched blogs and how to create one and with the help of some of the bloggers I met that night, my blog was created!
Q2. Do you do weekly memes and if so, what is your favorite meme and why?
I love doing WOW posts because they allow other bloggers and readers to see new and upcoming books that they might now know about previously, and my TBR pile always grows because of those posts!
Q3. What is your favorite aspect about blogging?
I love the community the most because it gives me an outlet to be a book nerd with no shame. And the people I have met over the past year have become some of the best people I know. I just love talking about books and getting them noticed!
(AW HUGS)
Q4. If you can be stuck on an island with any author, who would it be and why?
I would love to meet Jane Austen and pick her brain in being a writer in a world where women do not write. And also pick her brain about Darcy and it he was based on anyone 
(Don’t hate me, but I’ve never willing read a Jane Austen novel. I think I did once for class, but I don’t think I read it all.)
Q5. What book would you give up your left arm and maybe even a leg to see it translated into film or TV? Tell us why!
I would love to see The School for Good and Evil by Soman Chainani made into a movie because when I was reading it I could just picture everything so clearly and everything fairy take related should be made into a movie right? 
Q6. What is your favorite question to ask an author and why?
I always love to ask them who their favourite character is and why. I usually ask this because the answers are so different and some might surprise you. And also if the author has more than one book or series it’s always interesting to here who is the favourite:)
Q7. What TV show is a not-miss for you?
My favourite tv show right now and has been for a while is Castle because it blends drama and comedy so well and well who doesn’t love Nathan Fillion??
(I can’t get into this show for some reason. Maybe it’s because I was watching reruns one day, and in one season the chicks hair was super short and the VERY NEXT SEASON her hair was longer than mine, and that stuff just distracts me. Like what did she use? Miracle hair grow? Extensions? WHHHAAAAAT?)
Q8. What is your favorite movie that you can watch over and over again?
The Breakfast Club and Easy A. The Breakfast club because it’s a classic and Easy a because I love Emma Stone and that movie is Hilarious:)
Q9. Are you a cat, dog, fish, or gerbil person?
None of the above? I never had pets growing up so I was never a pet person but i have always wanted a pug dog named Felix
(We need to get you a pet)
Q10. Do you prefer print or digital?
Both. I love digital for travel and easy access but I also love print for many reasons one being the smell(I know that’s weird) and because I love the feel of having a book in my hands!
Q11. What is your favorite genre to read and why?
I love YA the most because I think the stories and the way the characters relate and the effect the stories have in me after I read them. And they have the most versatile genres out there right now for potential for amazing things.
Q12. What would you like to read more about?
I would like to read more about parallel universes because they can be so many different things! They can be contemporary, sci-fi or even a thriller. I love that kind of book! Mostly because it involves the same characters in different situations and there is usually a choice involved at the end which usually leads to me in tears! Haha
(Well, A Thousand Pieces of You is right up your alley then. It’s got all kinds of parallel universes)
Finally, what is your favorite book of all time and why?
That is a very hard question because I read so much, but I love anything by Courtney Summers, especially Some Girls Are, Fall For Anything and This Is Not a Test. The reason I picked her books is because she has a way of making characters so freakishly real and heartbreaking and has a way of capturing high school life so well. And the writing is so different and capturing.
(This is another author I need to check out.)
