Book Faery: Introduction

A Note:

6/2/13

I once told myself: IF I am accepted into grad school, this blog would no longer be updated. As it turns out, in April, I received news of my acceptance for the Fall 2013 semester, where I will attain a Master's degree of Science in Nutrition.

Running a blog, as many of you may already know, is a demanding side job once the excitement wears off. And once I fell out of the blogging community's loop (have you SEEN how many blogs there are now? Wow!), it was like the kiss of death. Despite my best efforts, I couldn't get into a blogging routine once this happened due to the disconnect I felt from the community.

So I took a break. I struggled with the loss and with missing my blog. And then I realized I didn't have to run Book Faery to still be a book reviewer; I could read my books and post reviews online. I'm still a book review blogger, just not in the traditional sense.

I'll still be online. You can chat with me on Twitter, where I'll be posting links to my reviews and talking books. I'll also be posting links to nutrition articles. And if you'd like to connect with me where I guarantee I will post reviews, just add me as a friend on Goodreads.

So that's all, folks! It's been a fun and amazing journey, and I thank you all for listening to my thoughts about books. I hope we all can keep in touch elsewhere :)

Introduction

Hi! My name's Tori. I'm 21 years old, live in New York, and attend college in Manhattan.

I am an avid book reader. I love paranormal books, particularly romances, though as long as the book is good, I will probably enjoy it.

I decided to start a blog writing book reviews because I wanted to practice writing as often as I could. That, and because the books I read are amazing and they deserve to be praised!

As for the ones that aren't as enjoyable? Well, I'd like to talk about that with others and see how they feel. I'd also like to give a fair warning to others who may have a similar taste in writing styles that I do.

If I am criticizing a book, I am not trying to offend anyone. We all have our own preferences, and I want to give a good enough reason as to why I don't like the book I read.

So here I am, and I hope that as I write more, and visit other blogs, that I make lots of friends and broaden my reading horizon :)
