Types of Books I Read
Duh. Everything romance
(Adult, Erotica, Dark Erotica, Non-Consent, YA, New Adult, PNR, Historical...if
it has romance, I'm all over it.)
So how did I get started with
reading? Good question. I wish I could say that I've been reading since I was
nine years old, but that would be flat out lie. Quite frankly, it all started when
my friend took me to see Harry Potter & the Sorcerer Stone. I had NO idea
who or what Harry Potter was all about, but she is my BFF and so I went. First
thing I noticed: What's up with all the witches and wizard costumes? So lame,
I thought. However, once the movie was done, I was hooked. She lent me the
first four books to read and that was that. I went out at midnight on book
release days just because I was obsessed. After my Harry Potter phase, came
Twilight. Yea. You know where that was headed. I started reading PNR and when I
exhausted that genre, I found Goodreads and the rest is history.
I've met so many
wonderful people all because we love books. I
love reading, reviewing and pimping books. Yea...that
pretty much sums it up.

Hmmm….I like to think I have
all kinds of quirks but one that will really stand out is the fact that I love
curse words and use them often! You will realize this when you read my reviews.
I mean seriously, curse words add so much color, don’t they?

I am a TV and movie JUNKIE!!
I love getting lost in a great TV series or movie almost as much as I love
getting lost in a good book!! Some nights it’s a major decision on how to end
my night – my book or whatever great shows I have DVR’d.
Types of Books
I Read
Oh Wow….like everything!!! I
am a book lover through and through. I love any book that rakes through all of
my emotions and leaves me feeling completely used! Romance, New Adult,
Paranormal Romance, Erotica, Dark Erotica, all of it – I like to push the
boundaries a bit! I love books with dirty talkers, tattooed & pierced
hotties, rock stars, bikers….pretty much any yummy Alpha you can find for me!
So, a little about me…I have
been married almost 20 years to the most amazing man and have 2 fabulous
children! Oh, and I LOVE TO READ! It is the way I end pretty much every day,
curled up with a great story. I can’t remember when I began my love of books
and reading, my first job was at 15 working in the library over the summer. So
yeah, a really long time! I spend a great deal of time, probably to the
annoyance of my family and friends, talking about fictional characters! I
absolutely adore pimping the books that I love!! Every time I am introduced to
a new author that gets my blood pumping I think about how lucky I am to have
such wonderful friends who love books as much as I do!!
My motto: I don’t care what
you read – JUST READ!!!

If I had to pick one to share
with you I would probably go with how I obsess over things. I find something I
enjoy, like reading, an author, a TV show, anything lol and it completely
consumes me, it turns into a complete obsession.
Other interests
Camping, boating, snorkelling
and fishing all great ways to have some quality time with the other half; he is
very adventurous so in the past 4 years of being together I have got to
experience things I never have before, truly blessed. I love my Rugby League,
if we have no plans on a weekend you can bet we are sitting in front of the TV
watching the gameJ. I love photo editing, doing teasers and making book
trailers, it’s something I really enjoy.
Types of Books I Read
I’m inlove with love so
anything romance. New Adult, Young Adult, Paranormal Romance, Contemporary
Romance, you name, it I want to read it.
Most ladies I’ve met through
our book world started reading from a very young age but unfortunately for me
that wasn’t the case, I was a late bloomer. I did read a little growing up and
through my teen years but it was not a necessity like it is now lol. It all
started a short 18 months ago, give or take, with a little story called 50
Shades of Grey, you might of heard of it ;). I fell head over heels with the
intensity and fierceness of the love and relationship in this story and I
needed more, so I went in search of something similar and in doing so
discovered my older sister and I have very similar taste in books. When she
learnt I was reading, or what I was reading I should say, she recommended me a
beautiful author by the name of Tillie Cole and my fate was sealed, I will
forever be a book lover. My whole life has been consumed by the book world, I
feel truly blessed for the friendships I have gained not only with these
amazingly talented authors but also other readers.

I have a few little quirks
apparently. I will randomly talk with a slight accent to my children, husband
or dogs, its British/Irish sounding… When I read books you can tell what kind
of scene I’m reading because I have these peculiar facial expressions for
different situations. When I eat KFC (chicken) I always have to peel the skin
off the chicken first, then I eat the chicken and finishing by eating the skin.
Other interests
Currently I’m self-teaching
to make cakes i.e kids birthday cakes, baby showers, Christenings etc. I do
plan to enrol into a proper cake decorating class and possibly sell my cakes
one day? I love scrapbooking, however with 4 children I don’t have much time on
my hands, so I look forward to the day I can throw myself back into that. I love
my T.V series!!! HUGE Sons of Anarchy fan (slight Charlie Hunnam obessesion),
CSI, Law and Order SVU and I’m even a sucker for The Bachelor/Bachelorette!!!
I’m a hopeless romantic at heart…
Types of Books
I Read
Anything romance: New Adult,
Young Adult, Paranormal Romance, Contemporary Romance, Erotica, Dark Erotica,
Historical...
I was not much of a reader
throughout my schooling days, it wasn’t until my mid-twenties that I picked up
a little book you may know of “Harry Potter and The Philosophers Stone”. I had
actually bought the book for my then 6 year old son and planned on reading to
him until I realised they were just slightly a little dark for a 6 yr old. That
was my first major series I read and I continued along that sci-fi paranormal
genre, the second BIG series was of course “Twilight”!!! This was the starting
platform for my introduction to romance… From there I was basically reading
standalone books until it came to the release of Fifty Shades, this opened up a
whole new window for me!!!! I love Alpha males, although I don’t mind seeing a
strong female setting her man straight!!! I also love a HOT tattooed
dirty talking biker or rock star… Or a HOT sweaty cowboy that knows how to
treat his woman… All these and more!!!
I just think in this day and
age we are so lucky to have so many talented and gifted writers that hand us
stories that we can loose and immerse ourselves into another world!!!!
