Where are you from? Were you a big reader as a child?
I’m from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I have always been a big reader. My parents always encouraged saying that it didn’t matter how tight the budget, they would always do their best to give me any books I wanted.
What made you decide to start a book blog?
My blog started as a personal blog, but after talking to a lot of authors and bloggers on twitter I decided to shar my love for books and opinions back in the end of 2009.
What’s your biggest challenge as a book blogger?
Living outside of an English speaking country and blogging in English.
Who are some of your favorite authors and why?
So many, like: Ilona Andrews, Larissa Ione, J.R. Ward, Eileen Wilks and so many others. I follow over 100 book series.
What’s your biggest book/story related pet peeve?
My biggest book Pet peeve is being interrupted while reading. People just assume you are available to talk. My biggest book story is going to the AAD Convention in 2011, making friends with Larissa Ione and being one of the bloggers in a group she dedicated a book to =)
If you could only read one genre for the rest of your life, what would it be and why?
Probably Paranormal Romance, however I am extremely addicted to Procedural Thrillers right now.
