My name is Brooke.
And I am a blogger! This is my blog – The Cover Contessa
Where were you born
and where do you call home?
I was born in
Brooklyn, NY. I currently call Northern NJ home.
How long have you been
a blogger?
10 months
What is the name of
the book you most recently blogged about?
My Invented Life by Laurn Bjorkman
Did you like the
cover? Rate it on a scale of 1 stars to 5 stars, 5 being the best?
The cover was nice. I
would give it a 3.
If you could ask the author
3 questions about this book, what would they be?
1. How did you come up
with the theme for this book?
2. Did you draw on personal experience for this book?
3. Why theater geeks?
Can you name a
favorite scene from the book?
There were many.
Mostly ones that were funny. But they kind of meld together in my head so I
can’t come up with just one.
What character did you
like the most? The least? Why?
I liked the main
character, Roz the best. She was witty and funny. She knew how to steal a
scene. I disliked her sister, Eva, but grew to like her more towards the end.
She just struck me as a stuck up b***h
Was this a series or
stand alone? If it is a series, will you read the rest of the books?
Stand alone.
Was this a review book
or something you picked out to read? Do you think that influenced your review?
This book was for a
review for a blog tour. I don’t think it influenced my review.
What did you rate this
book?
I gave it 3 stars.
Have you written a
book yourself or are you planning to in the future?
Hmmm….a little of
this, a little of that. Not a complete book, but I do have a WIP. Not sure
where I’ll go with it, tho.
What genre is your
favorite and why?
YA paranormal/fantasy
or dystopian. I like how they take me out of my world.
If you were
shipwrecked on a desert island what 3 books would you want with you and why?
Ugh, only 3…this is
hard!
1. Deity by Jennifer L. Armentrout
2. Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi
3. Crux by Julie Reece
Is there an Author
that you would really like to meet? Is there an author that you really wanted
to meet and had the pleasure of doing so?
Christine Fonseca. We
have become friendly and I really would love to sit down with her in person. I
really wanted to meet Tahereh Mafi and I got the chance last Spring!
Do you prefer ebooks,
paperbacks or hardcover?
I’m a fan of hardcover
books. I just like the way they feel. But I will really read any of the three
because I just LOVE books!
Where do you buy your
books?
Books of Wonder in
NYC, Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, legal free downloading sites
Have you ever read a
book more than once? Which one and why?
I haven’t, that I can
remember. I am not sure I would. There are so many I want to read, I just don’t
have time to reread.
Do you prefer movies
over books ever?
No, I always prefer
the book over a movie. There is so much more to it that can never be fit into a
movie.
What book are you
currently reading and in what format (ebook/paperback/hardcover)?
I’m reading three, actually. All ARCs:
- Apollyon (Covenant #4) by Jennifer L Armentrout
(paperback ARC.
- Shadowlands (Shadowlands #1) by Kate Brian (paperback
ARC)
- Dulaed (Dualed #1) by Elsie Chapman (ebook ARC)
What book are you
about to start reading?
After the three I’m
currently reading? LOL! I plan on reading Touch of Death by Kelly Hashway
What book do you know
that you will never read? Why?
Are there any new authors
that have grasped your interest recently and why?
Chritine Fonseca,
because her writing is unbelievably emotional, Julie Reece because that woman
knows how to tell a story, and Alexndra Bracken because I just loved her story!
Have you read a book
that you would like to rewrite the ending of?
Bloodrose (Nightshade
#3) by Andrea Cremer or Mockingjay (The Hunger Games #3) by Susan Collins. For
Cremer’s book, I would love a different ending, but I do know there was no
other way to really go about it. For Collins’ book, I just thought it was
rushed.
Do you like book
trailers? Why or why not?
They are ok. I’m not a
huge fan of blurbs, either. I like to dive into a book with only a little bit
of knowledge and let it unfold.

favorite book covers:
1. Incarnate (Newsoul
