I
love all genres. Believe me, I'm not a picky reader! I came back to
reading with the Twilight Series so I was stuck on Paranormal for a
while. Then, surfing through Facebook and a few of the Free Book sites,
I found Adult Erotica and fell in love with that. I grew up reading
Historicals and, when I am in the mood for true romance, turn to one of
them. Recently I have found New Adult and absolutely love it.
I
have Kallypso Masters to thank for that one ... my homage to her is my
pen name "Kitty Angel" which is a combination of Karla and Angelina from
the Rescue Me series. I happened to pick up one of her books for free
and fell in love with the series and the BDSM aspects of it. She posted
that she was doing a chat on Guilty Pleasures and invited all of us to
come over. While on the site, I happened to see that they were looking
for reviewers and filled out the application. I figured that if I was
going to read, I may as well let people know what I think of the book.
Not that I feel that my opinion matters in the whole scheme of things
and I also loved the fact that there is "NO SNARK" on this blog.
My
love of reading, again. I didn't read for a very long time raising my
children. You know, baseball, football, school activities. So, I was
really excited to find that my love for books didn't die. And, every
day my children give me something to be excited about.
This
question totally scares me because I am so afraid of leaving someone I
absolutely love off of the list. So, this question is really hard and
the list, if I thought long and hard, would be huge. So, I think I'll
just name a few ... Mary Hughes (of course), Lynsay Sands, Kerrylyn
Sparks, JR Ward, Bella Andre, Lorelei James, Tara Sivic, Kallypso
Masters, Cherise Sinclair, Candace Blevins, Ryan Winfield, Rebecca
Yarros, Cari Silverwood, Karen Marie Moning, Sherrilyn Kenyon.
These
are just off the top of my head but, I do have to say that I have a lot
of respect and enjoy reading those authors that are self-published. It
takes a lot to put yourself out there and hope that you have enough of a
fan base that your book takes off.

I love country music and had a great year going to concerts. My favorite? 5th
Row Center for Luke Bryan, Lee Brice and Cole Swindell. I was a good
mom and gave up my ticket to go see Jake Owen to a friend of my son.
Then, had a blast at Dierks Bentley's "Riser" Tour with Chris Young,
Chase Rice and Jon Pardi. Hmmm, that's where my son taught me how to
play "Beer Pong" which brings me to my most favorite pastime – hanging
with my children, cooking on weekends that they come to visit or are
home from school ... just taking care of them.
Favorite color, wild animal, and/or food?
My
favorite color is Purple ... just something so regal about it. My
favorite wild animal - someday I would love to see a Koala in person.
They are just so cute! My favorite food? I grew up in a very Italian
house so really love everything Italian but Eggplant Parmesan is my most
favorite thing.

Hi!
I am a mom of 3 (all boys) that gave up reading to raise my children
and find my career. A few years ago I asked a friend if I could borrow
her Twilight series so I could see what all the "fuss" was about and
remembered what I was missing. Well, needless to say, I haven't stopped
reading since. Much to my family's dismay! Now, I'm never seen without
my Kindle in hand. It comes to my son's baseball games, grocery shopping
and work. I love all genre's of books. I will read anything from YA to
Adult Erotica; Paranormal to BDSM; Historical Romances to Mysteries. I
have to credit Lora Leigh for introducing me to the wonderful world of
Erotica and to Kallypso Masters for pointing me to all these sites so
that I could share my love of reading with everyone. I am a former
police officer and love, love, love, country music. So, you guessed it,
give me my cowboys and cops and I am one happy camper. If you mix
cowboys, cops and some military men, well, don't talk to me for a while –
I'm in my happy place! I am looking forward to sharing my thoughts and
views with everyone and, like Didi, won't give you any spoilers (without
warning). I am a firm believer in "if you can't say anything nice,
don't say anything at all." So don't expect me to "bash" a book. I will
find the good points, promise.Happy Reading!

This is part of my Interview with the Book Blogger series. Please visit and support these bloggers' sites.
Hello Kitty, I was a bookaholic for many years and then found myself in the midst of responsibilities with children and work, too. My husband is away alot and it became difficult to find time to read. Am grateful to book reviewers not only because of concerns of cost but of time spent, I can get a feel for books or authors I might want to try before purchasing or borrowing. I am one of those strange people who feel obligated to finish reading a book. Quirk, I know.
ReplyDeleteLil, I couldn't agree more! Time is precious and committing to the hours a story takes is so much easier when a trusted reviewer vets it :)
DeleteHi Kitty Angel! I love GP and everyone over there! Keep up the great work!
