One blogger to another... An interview with Justin from Justin's Book Blog

Seeing as how us book bloggers tend to be loners by definition, Brielle from Awesome Bookworm has arranged a Book Blogger Meetup and today I have an interview with fellow book blogger/reviewer, Justin from




So, i asked Justin...

Q~What is the worst book you've ever read, but finished reading anyway? 

A~I find it really hard to answer questions like this, I feel like every book I read has some redeeming quality. Which is why when I do reviews and such, and give a book a low rating I will always make sure to talk about the good qualities too. So to be perfectly honest, I can't actually pick a worst. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Q~Sometimes when people recommend a book, they praise it so highly that i rush right out and buy it. I've been disappointed a few times. Has this ever happened to you? If so, which book/books was it? 

A~So far it hasn't, a lot of the people that have recommended books to me have very similar tastes in books, so I have yet to be disappointed by any recommendations.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Q~Out of the books you've read, which was the most UNDER rated? 

A~Hmm, I am assuming you mean which book do I feel didn't get a lot of attention. If so, I would have to go with Falling for Hamlet. I loved this book, but honestly didn't see much talk about it. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Q~Who is your favorite author? Why? 

A~My favorite author would have to be J.K Rowling. I started reading Harry Potter within a few months of the book one coming out in the US. She was the author that made me fall in love with reading, if it wasn't for her I wouldn't be doing what I am doing now. And thanks to her, I have found so many other amazing authors that I really love. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Q~To be a good writer you have to be a good reader. Do you write, or do you have plans on writing in the future? 

A~I don't plan to write, I might one day but it's not something I am really interested in. I love reading, and I love blogging but that is about the limit for my writing at the moment. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Q~How many books can you read in a week? A year?

A~I can read maybe two books a week depending on what else I am doing, and if I don't get distracted. But right now I don't really try to push myself as I feel like doing things like that can lead to reading slumps and everything else. I just try and keep up a decent pace for reviews. As for how many I read in a year, this coming hear will be the first time I try to set a limit. So as of now, I am not quite sure.
