Post by jewelzeyes »

Hello all! I'm Amber. I'm a Florida transplant living in Richmond, Virginia. I never could get used to that heat!

I used to be a total bookworm as a child, but not so much as an adult and I hate it! And want that to change. So I'm trying to read books about particular interests of mine with educational value. For example, Astrology, Tarot, Crystal Healing, Herbology, Feline Behavior and jewelry making are my big interests right now.

Any tips about how to get back into enjoying reading are welcome and appreciated!

I'd really like to start doing book reviews in exchange for free books. I don't really know how to go about this so any advice is welcome. I'd hope to be able to choose books of interest to me to review instead of just being offered random ones. How does it work?? :doh:

Thanks!
