Into the bat-cave with Anne Malcom|| Author Interview

As it so happens, a couple of months ago, I came across this really crazy good blurb on Facebook, and I have to say I was hooked before I’d even read a single word of the book. But boy oh boy, when I finally got my hands on it, I have to tell you, I was mind=fucked, because not only did I absolutely adore the story, but the writing was easily some of the best I’d ever read.

Enter Anne Malcom.

Before Birds of Paradise, I hadn’t read a single book of her’s, and really, if she’s a new to you author, then I highly recommend you pick any of her books and start ASAP. Where was I? Yes, yes- how I roped Anne into doing this. See I was so mindblown after BOP that I did what every reader ever does- I stalked. And somehow instead of getting me convicted, I was able to convince Anne that doing an interview with me would be a good idea because.. duh..

And so it began. And after about two months I’m finally here with her answers, and I hope you stay around because they’re frigging awesome. Eekk!! I am just so excited to have her here on the blog!!!

There’s a bonus question at the end of the interview, and honestly, I want to know what your answer to that is too. Let me know!

Anne Malcom

Anne Malcom has been an avid reader since before she can remember, her mother responsible for her book addiction. It started with magical journeys into the world of Hogwarts and Middle Earth, then as she grew up her reading tastes grew with her. Her obsession with books and romance novels in particular gave Anne the opportunity to find another passion, writing. Finding writing about alpha males and happily ever afters more fun than reading about them, Anne is not about to stop any time soon.

Raised in small town New Zealand, Anne had a truly special childhood, growing up in one of the most beautiful countries in the world. She has backpacked across Europe, ridden camels in the Sahara, eaten her way through Italy, and had all sorts of crazy adventures. For now, she’s back at home in New Zealand and quite happy. But who knows when the travel bug will bite her again.

Gossiping under covers with Bebe Reid || Author Interview

It’s probably no secret that I read a lot of B.B. Reid books. I have read both her Broken Love and The Bandit series, and some books in them more times than I can count (*ahem ahem* Fear Me), and while I haven’t loved all of them (also no secret), there are some of them (namely The Bandit, and Fear Me) that get me so fucking hot that it totally makes up for the books I did not like.

So as it happens, about the time when The Knight released, I had contacted Bebe, and we got to talking, and in classic me fashion, I asked her out on an interview. Because duh! That woman wrote Kieran and Bishop! I needed access into that mind dammit! So yeah, I sent her the questions and we both got busy with life and completely forgot about it. Three months later, she sends me those answers with an apology, and a proclamation of being a closet asshole, which dun dun dun- I never saw. For three more months.

Yes people, I completely missed her email, and just found it the day before yesterday when I was cleaning my mailbox. So I did what most girls do when all is lost, and asked her if I could move in with her in her closet.

So here we are at last, with an interview that I’d decided to post some six months ago lol. I hope you enjoy her answers as much as I did.

PS: She forgave me, and we bonded over how outdated the entire emailing system is haha.

B. B. Reid

B.B., also known as Bebe, found her passion for romance when she read her first romance novel by Susan Johnson at a young age. She would sneak into her mother’s closet for books and even sometimes the attic. It soon became a hobby, and later an addiction, influencing her life in a positive way.

Bebe has always wondered about the existence of her talent. When she finally decided to pick up a metaphorical pen and start writing, she found a new way to embrace her passion.

She favors a romance that isn’t always easy on the eyes or heart, and loves to see characters grow–characters who are seemingly doomed from the start but find love anyway.

Bebe resides in North Carolina with dreams of leaving as soon as possible. She graduated with a B.S. in Business Administration – Finance.

Sitting by the lake with Saffron Kent||Author Interview

If you’ve been around then you know that I’ve been gushing over this book- A War Like Ours. It was a debut book (and if you read it you’ll realize that it was better than a lot of books by seasoned writers), and seriously people, if you haven’t read it, I really really recommend it if you’re hungry for something dark and fucked up.

Where was I going with this? Oh yes, so turns out the author’s not only an awesome writer, but also an amazing person, and I had a bunch of delightful chats with her. And, she also agreed to answer some of my questions.

Stick around till the end, there are a lot of hilarious things she’s shared.. and a sneak peak into her next book. It’s pretty exclusive.

Without further ado, ladies and gentlemen, I present to you—

Saffron A Kent

Romance Writer and Reader. Coffee Addict. White Russian Drinker. Imaginary Ballet Dancer. Wanna-be Poet. Lana Del Ray & Gillian Flynn Worshiper.

I am a big believer in love (obviously). I believe in happily ever after, the butterflies and the tingling. But I also believe in edgy, rough and gutsy kind of love. I believe in pushing the boundaries, darker (sometimes morally ambiguous) emotions and imperfections.

My stories are grey-shaded and NC-17. I write what I love to read. And what I love to read is always twisted and angsty and emotional. The kind of love I write about is flawed just like my characters. My characters desperately need therapy. They tend to kiss a lot too, among other naughty things. And I hope by the end of it, you’ll come to root for them just as much as me. Because love, no matter where it comes from, is always pure and beautiful.
