Hi all!

Today I’ll be sharing 25 bookish facts about me! I’ve seen this tag floating around on Booktube, so I wanted to do it too. Enjoy!

1.) My Hogwarts House is Ravenclaw, my Ilvermorny House is Wumpus and my Patronus is a White Swan.

2.) My favourite reading genre is YA fantasy/contemporary.

3.) I’ve published two YA fantasy novels, with a third on the way.

4.) I’ve met authors: Anne Rice, Jay Kristoff, Amie Kaufman, Angie Thomas and Melissa Keil.

5.) I sent a fan letter to Darren Shan in 2017 and in 2018, he wrote back!

6.) One of my favourite places in the world is the Bodleian Library at Oxford University.

7.) I like to read multiple books at a time; typically 1 audio, 1 electronic and 1 physical book.

8.) I’ve re-read the Sweep series by Cate Tiernan, more than any other book/series.

9.) My favourite literary classic is Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte.

10.) My most despised book of all time is A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man by James Joyce.

11.) Last year, I took part in the Sassy Book Club, run by MissSassieKassie on YouTube. This year, I’m a member of the Books With Friends Book Club, run by Common Spence and BooksWithChloe. Prior to that, I had never been part of a book club.

12.) I like to match my book with my bookmark. For example, if I’m reading a book with a blue cover, I’ll use a blue bookmark.

13.) My favourite place to read is in a hot bath.

14.) As a child, I used to borrow 20 books from the library, reading them all in one day!

15.) The books that got me into reading were The Magic Faraway Tree trilogy by Enid Blyton.

16.) I own Agatha Christie’s entire set of works!

17.) When I was younger, I read books out loud to help with public speaking issues.

18.) I love the look of hardcovers, but prefer the feel of paperbacks.

19.) I cannot resist a book with sprayed edges.

20.) My absolute favourite Booktuber is Common Spence. He’s hilarious!

21.) I don’t understand people that read books in a series out of order. That makes no sense to me.

22.) I once had an interview to work in my local library but didn’t get the job.

23.) I’ve never read a Stephen King novel, but when I do, it will be IT. I plan to annotate the whole thing.

24.) A book that scared the crap out of me was 172 Hours on the Moon by Johan Harstad. I’m still creeped out by it to this day.

25.) I buy the majority of my books from Book Depository.
