Feature and Follow is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read.
Hi, everyone! Janhvi and I are so excited and elated to be the featured blog this week. We'd love to thank both Alison and Rachel for this.
Today's question is:
If
you were to get a tattoo, what would it say or what would the graphic be? Or if
you have a tattoo, share a picture and its meaning.
Our answers:
Janhvi:
I
already have a tattoo of a butterfly on my neck. It symbolizes beauty, grace,
life and change. But I do want another one which says "read." On my
wrist. It will be a matching one with my BFF and co blogger, Sarika.
Sarika:
I
don’t have any tattoo(s). Janhvi has already said what was on my mind and I’m
hoping that happens soon. Other than that, I would love to get a few very
magical words tattooed.
Here is what we were asked as the featured blog:
When
did you start blogging?
Janhvi:
We
started blogging in August 2012. We are going to be celebrating our 3 year
Blogoversary soon. Can't believe it's been 3 years already!
Sarika:
Janhvi
and I started blogging in 2012, so we’ve been blogging for nearly three years.
What
is your favorite part of book blogging?
Janhvi:
Meeting
other bloggers and finding out new books is the most exciting part. I love that
we can share our love for books through blogging.
Sarika:
My
most favourite part about book blogging is definitely ranting about books.
Whether it is writing reviews, pretending a book character is real, getting
recommendations from other readers, recommending books to others, drooling over
book pictures, endlessly stalking authors… It is so much fun. Also, I’ve met
some really spectacular people because of blogging, and I feel proud to call
them my friends.
What
type of books do you mainly blog about?
Janhvi:
Well,
Sarika and I have pretty different reading tastes so I'd say we are pretty
diverse in our reviews. I love reading any and all kinds of romances with a
dash of young adult.
Sarika:
Even
though I love to read anything and everything, I find myself mostly drawn to
contemporary realistic fiction and LGBT reads, so I try to include them in my
reading, and hence, blogging list. Having done my Masters in French literature,
I also make sure to share some French marvels that I come across.
What
are your favorite books?
Janhvi:
The
Psy-Changeling series by Nalini Singh, The Lucky Harbor series by Jill Shalvis,
F.B.I/U.S.Attorney series by Julie James, The Sea of Tranquility by Katja
Millay, I'll Meet You There by Heather Demetrios..this list can go on and on..
Sarika:
That’s
a very tough one! Some of my favourites are: the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling, The Stranger by Albert Camus, The
Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini Two
Boys Kissing by David Levithan, Made
of Stars by Kelley York and many, many more.
What
has been the best thing that has happened to you because of book blogging?
Janhvi:
Meeting
new people is very cool. We also love reading all the comments people post on
our blog. Getting to read arcs is also a pretty sweet deal.
Sarika:
That
would definitely be the fact that I can freely and easily spread my love for
books and it has definitely got Janhvi and I closer. Getting to know authors
and fellow readers is an added bonus.
We will be forever grateful to you for following us, and make sure you provide us with the link to your blog, so we can follow you back.
Thank you so much! Happy reading, and see you around!

Oh congrats on getting featured guys!! So cool. And I definitely APPROVE of you guys getting matching "read" tattoos! I am so glad to have found your blog some years ago because I agree that one of my fave parts of this blogging experience has been chatting with and getting to know other book-lovers :)
ReplyDeleteCongrats on being featured girls! I loved reading your interview. Blogging with my co-bloggers has strengthened our friendships too. I think it's great that you two have diverse reading interests! It means that there is something for everyone to read and enjoy on your book blog.
