Why I am Passionate About Blogging

I am passionate about blogging because it give me the space to express things that interest me in general. While I do mainly blog about books, I do have my other interests sprinkled in. Due to the fact that I have my own little space on the internet I am able to discuss these interests with others I would never have found other wise. I also find it a great way to just relax. I enjoy writing and creating my images for my blog so I find it to be a creative outlet. Lastly, it is something that is just for me. I created this blog for me, I write for me, and I read for me. Other people enjoying it is just a wonderful bonus that puts a huge smile on my face.

The Questions

1. Do you read one or multiple books at a time?
   • I usually read 3 books at one time. I never intend on it happening it just always does. I have yet to confused the books and I can still follow them so I don’t see a point in stopping now.
2. Five books you would recommend someone?
   • The Witches by Stacey Schiff
   • Bag of Bones by Stephen King
   • The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware
   • The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien
   • Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell.
3. How many books do you read in a month in an average ?
   • 4-10, my months are usually all over the place. Some months I read non-stop while others I don’t feel like reading as much. I have learned from my own experience, if I don’t feel like reading don’t. It will just suck all the joy out of reading.
4. Has any book ever changed your life, or shook you ?
   • Little Women by Louisa May Alcott, it really helped shape my life. I read it very young and I have reread it so many times since. It showed me that I can be strong, smart, and brave. Something I think is an important lesson to learn at a young age.
5. Your most read author ?
   • Louisa May Alcott and Stephen King, very different authors I am aware, but I love both of their styles and I have yet to hate anything by either of them,
6. A book you feel is under-rated ?
   • I feel like any Christopher Isherwood book is underrated. He is a great story teller and his stories are all unique.
7. A book you have been meaning to read for ever?
   • This is a very good question. I have been meaning to read Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy for what seems like forever. Somehow I started reading it and my mom ended up picking it up then lost it on me. I just ordered a new copy so I am determined to finish it now that I have a copy again.
8. A book you had high hopes for , but ended up disappointing ?
   • The Shatter Me series in general, I heard so many great things about it. Sadly, I was unable to even finish the first book. I never wanted to pick it up and when I did I didn’t want to read it. I was bored and uninterested. It was just not a book for me.
9. Do you have any reading schedule ?
   • I don’t have a specific reading schedule, but I do my best to read a little each day. Sometimes this is hours others it is about 10 min. it really depends on me mood. But, I find it important to just do a little each day. It is a great time to relax and focus on me.
10. What is the biggest lesson you learnt in life, so far?
    • You can’t control everything, just do what you can and try not to worry about the rest. Easier said than done, but it something I feel is important and I need to keep it in mind often.
