Nice Rinny I don't know much about authors, but as least she is getting some exposure out of it Did you have to pay her btw ? :S I know some authors are really tight about things like interviews.

Nope, I just emailed her. Her first book was released 2000, then her series from 2002 - 2004 - I read it shortly after it came out, and fell in love with it. I've read the series so many times so I'm really proud to be able to post that, from one of my favourite authors =) And no, lots of them are actually quite happy to do these things for free - not sure about really big authors - but if you email, rather than arrange an interview in person, it's a lot easier. Next I might email some publishers/authors for free review copies that I haven't managed to get off of Netgalley or Edelweiss.

I didn't read 92 books in 18 years. Spot the differences ;D
Actually I started reading enough only in the last 2-3 years :// But mostly fantasy and such xD

As long as you're reading! =D
Honestly, being at university puts you off reading fiction for a while =(

Because the other people just go hours before and take seats for them and their friends ;D (example: 1 guy who takes 7-8 seats) Basically, since the classrooms aren't big enough, if I don't go at least 1h before, I don't find a seat or, if I'm lucky, I find it in the most far away spot from the blackboard (and I don't see a thing) >__>
