An Introduction

Hello all!

My name is Taylor and I review books. I am a twenty-year-old avid reader and writer living and attending university in Texas. Currently, I intern in both the marketing department and the submissions department of a small publishing company (and am loving every minute of it!). This is my first shot at a blog, and I'm excited for the opportunity.

I read all kinds of books, but my favorite genre is New Adult. Coincidentally, that is also the genre of novels I'm the most inclined to write. I love elements of fantasy, science fiction, adventure, and historical fiction.

I have just recently started to exchange copies of e-books from authors in exchange for an honest review on Amazon or Goodreads, and I thought that it would also be a good idea to make a blog dedicated to my reviews in order to keep track of the books I've read, enjoyed, and provided feedback on!

For now, I foresee including both book reviews and helpful links concerning reading and things of a bookish nature in my posts. I don't think that I'll have a set date and time for when I update; rather, it will most likely be as I finish a book or stumble across something that I think my guests would find interesting.

Please contact me if you'd like me to leave a review of your book, have any questions or comments, or simply want to chat! I can be contacted at bittybooknook@gmail.com.

You can view the submission guidelines here.

Thank you very much!

Very sincerely yours,
Taylor Watkins

A Review of "Tales of a Paperboy"

Introduction As always, let me first put the disclaimer that I received a free .mobi file of Tales of a Paperboy from author Andrew J. Mair in exchange for an honest review. Readers, I am so delighted that this book was the book that marked my return to reviewing. It was a beautifully heartwarming Christmas story that really replenished a "Christmas Spirit" in me that I haven't felt in quite a few years, and I'm so thrilled that I was able to read it so close to the holidays.

A Review of "Over the Pass, and Other Stories"

Introduction When author Susan Mary Malone contacted me about this book and told me that she was a native Texan, I was delighted! I don't get too many opportunities to meet Texan authors outside of writers' conferences, and I don't recall ever reviewing a book by a Texan author before. She kindly gave me a .mobi file of Over the Pass, and Other Stories in exchange for an honest review, and I'm certainly glad that she did, because I loved this book! My Rating:  ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Synopsis: "From the expansive openness of Texas to the steep peaks of Montana, this collection of stories mines iconic landscapes--the internal mirroring the outer realms. Many previously published in Literary journals and anthologies, some, original here, all explore what it means to be human. They are stories of the heart."  (via Goodreads) Thoughts and Comments Pros Let me start by saying that I think this book is extremely well-written. I was impressed by the syn...
