Blogger Interview: And Anything Bookish, Part 1

Welcome everybody. Today I would like to introduce you all to another one of my best blog/twitter buddies. Everybody meet Salena aka Kim. Kim this is everybody. :D

~~~~~~~~
Name: Salena
Alias: Kim
Blog: And Anything Bookish

Part 1: Bookish/Bloggish

The Book Pixie: Tell us a little bit about your blog.

And Anything Bookish: My blog started out as a place where I can use to rant about books that won't get out of my head, but now it's just a nice home away from home.

TBP: Who or what made you want to start blogging?

AAB: I started blogging because I couldn't get some books out of my mind. I was thinking of them 24/7 and it drove me nuts. Once I wrote out my thoughts on a word doc, I felt better so I decided to make a post instead, especially after seeing some blogs online.

TBP: What is your favorite part of blogging and why?

AAB: My favorite part of blogging is meeting other bloggers because they are all so nice. Most importantly, they share something in common with me that I don't with my friends and it is: books.

TBP: On average, how many books do you read/review a month?

AAB: I used to read about 20 a month, and only review about 10 (Yeah, I know. I stink.) With school going on though, those numbers have decreased...dramatically.

TBP: What is your most recent favorite book? Your oldest favorite?

AAB: My most recent favorite book would have to be Mistwood by Leah Cypess. Oldest favorite would have to be Two-Way Street by Lauren Barnholdt. (I WANT MISTWOOD! :P)

TBP: What are three books you are most looking forward to the release of this year?

AAB: Of course the third book in the Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins (have a feeling Peeta is evil.) One Night That Changes Everything by Lauren Barnholdt. Lastly, Whisper by Phoebe Kitanidis.

TBP: Do you write? Working on anything in particular?

AAB: Yes I do write. I'm not very good at it, but I enjoy doing it. Right now, I'm restarting my NaNo because it truly stunk the fifth time I rewrote since November.

TBP: Any advice for those bloggers/reviewers just starting out?

AAB: If you enjoy reading, keep on doing it. Don't worry about how often you update or how many followers you have--just worry about reviewing/blogging about those books because in the end, the reason why you are blogging will always be there and it is that you love books.
