INTERVIEW WITH - MARIAH - "READER'S ADVENTURE BLOG"



As anybody who has read me reviews interviews or heard my comments on either my own radio program or where I have been a guest, you will know I am a great believer in what I call the "Small Blogger". These are the people who read, write and live books are "The 'Sham Wow' of Teen/YA literature", soaking up everything they can read. Today's guest is fairly new to blogging, and this interview I hope will encourage her and show others how much bloggers are appreciated by us authors.

Name, (name that you blog under) Mariah

Blog spot name, A Reader’s Adventure

Blog address:http://mariah-readingadventure.blogspot.com/

How long have you been blogging?


I have been blogging for about 2 months

What books do you read?

Mostly YA books but sometimes Middle Grade books as well

What is your favorite book and author of 2009?

So far I would say Eyes like Stars by Lisa Mantchev probably because I just read it and I loved it.

Beauty by Robin Mckinley

How many books do you have in your library?

About 200 (I use the library and buy the ones I really like)

About 7

Not counting yours, what is your favorite blog to follow?

The Story Siren http://www.thestorysiren.com

When is your favorite time/location to read?

Late at night when I should be asleep Location- in my bed

If you could be a character in any book who would that be and why?

Right now probably either Katsa from Graceling or Katniss from The Hunger Games because I really like both of those books but it would be really scary and I don’t think I would be as brave!

Have you ever thought about or actually written a book yourself?

I am attempting to write a book right now.

If you had a chance to advertise your blog in any way you could, what would you chose and why?

Having a bookstore support/advertise me because I love bookstores and what better way to connect with readers?

If you had a chance to interview any one author who would that be and why?

A really famous author like Judy Blume


If you had a chance what period of history would you live in

Probably the Elizabethan Era because I am fascinated with it even though it is not as great as it sometimes sounds what with no indoor plumbing!

What is one thing about you that readers might not know?

I am very shy and quiet in real life!

What would you like to change about you if you could?

I wish I was less introverted but it gives me more time to read!

Have you ever heard of a “Tree Kangaroo?”


Yes, and they are adorable

  3. Watch out. Blogging can be addictive, especially if you follow other posts and comment. It may reduce your 7 books a week read to less.
