About readmyblurb

Hey everyone! I’m Readtheblurb. I mostly review fantasy books but try to sprinkle in some sci-fi, horror and non fiction into the mix. I’ve always lived abroad so I’m kind of a travel addict, which works great with reading as I love to read on the go…or on a beach. I also can’t survive without coffee, so I try to add that on the go as much as possible. Computer games is also one of my major hobbies as they feel like interactive stories to me. I’m mostly still new to reviewing, but am trying my best to review as many and as much of a variety of books as possible, which I hope will give you a better idea of what you want to read. Oh. Yeh. I’m also in the process of writing my own sci-fi book. I’m not to far in but maybe (hopefully) you’ll see it somewhere down the line! Anyway, am also open for a chat, particularly about games, travel and books, so come drop me a line on Twitter.
