Armchair BEA Introductions

Hi Everyone!

Just stopping by to letting you know that I am participating in Armchair BEA. This is an event for all the people who are not able to attend Book Expo America in real life, to still have lots of wonderful bookish conversations! The first part is to introduce ourselves...so here is my info:

Group 1:

1.  What is the name you prefer to use? Valerie or Val, either is fine

2.  How long have you been a book blogger? It will be one year in just a couple of days!

3.  Have you participated in ABEA before? Nope, first time!

Group 2:

1.  Do you have a favorite book? If you cannot choose a favorite book of all time, pick your favorite book today - just this second. Remember that favorites are allowed to change if something affects you deeply enough. 
I do! It is The Richest Man in Town

2.  What is your favorite genre and why?  I have a bunch! Check out my 'What I Read' List

3.  How do you arrange your bookshelves? Is there a rhyme or reason? Or not at all? (#ABEAShelfie) They are sort of grouped by topic, for example all of my outdoor/hiking books are together.

4.  What book are you most excited for on your TBR?  I just got Love & Gelato from the library, so I am looking forward to that!

5.  What is the most interesting thing that you have learned through your reading this year so far?  
How wonderful the book community is! 

Are you participating in Armchair BEA?  What are you most looking forward to?

Happy Reading!
