Reviewer Interview
What is your blog
called?
Around the World in Books - http://www.aroundtheworldinbooks.ca/
How did you come
up with the name?
My blog’s theme is books around the world … hence ‘Around
the World in Books’; pretty self-explanatory.
What sort of books
do you review?
For the most part, I review anything and everything. My
only exception is erotica; I do not care much for the genre. Ultimately, the
theme of my blog goes by countries of setting/origin as opposed to the book’s
genre.
Do you take part
in tours?
I am participating in one tour or another practically
daily.
Why did you decide
to start a blog?
I have crippling anxiety; so book blogging became a way
of coping for me. I began focusing my time and energy on reading/blogging
instead of being panicky. It has helped a bunch and I have met some fantastic
people.
