Do you have a guilty reading pleasure, and if so will you tell us about it?
I tend to read everything, I love horror/apocalyptic and zombie ones so much so they have their own tab on the blog. Folk can be quite snooty about them so probably that

Give us four essential items that a blogger absolutely needs?
Getting into it for the right reasons, if it is to get "free books" don't even hit the create button. For me it is a passion for books (I am one of the few who review books they loved and didn't, what doesn't work for me can be the selling point for another reader).
Focus, keep in mind why you start and don't get bogged down. Learn to say no, don't take on too much, if you constantly read to schedule it no longer is a fun hobby and becomes a chore.
Most importantly just enjoy it. I started my blog for me, never thinking for a minute anyone else would bother reading it. I use words/phrases like I talk, wow, Omg, no way, awesome, bantz, eek.
Just do you and enjoy it!

Tell us a little about your blog and why you are so passionate about books and reading?
My blog covers reviews of all the books I have read, liked, loved or meh. I read almost any genre and have help from little paws. Princess Trixie passed in July and my new blogging assistant, miss Luna paws is in training. I do a giveaway every month with some additionals, Q&As with authors so mostly all centred around books. I started reading when I was a pre teen, IT by Stephen King, I was about 8. I fell in love with books/horror and never looked back. I think reading is such a great escapism and fun way of learning and just letting go. You can never go wrong with a good book.
