It's Feature Friday, again! Today I would like to welcome blogger Cynthia Cyn to The Cover Contessa. Cynthia runs We All Make Mistakes In Books. She has generously agreed to answer my barrage of questions and I'm really excited to have her here. So without further ado, let's hear what she has to say!
Where were you
born and where do you call home?
I was born in
Buenos Aires, Argentina and have lived here my entire life.
How long have you
been a blogger?
Almost a year...
What is the name
of the book you most recently blogged about?
I just schedule
the post for Love Unrehearsed (Love series #2) By Tina Reber to go live next
week :):D
Did you like the
cover? Rate it on a scale of 1 stars to 5 stars, 5 being the best?
Not very much… I
give it a 3.5 star
If you could ask
the author 3 questions about this book, what would they be?
Why is it so much
shorter than the first and has so many jumps in time?
Would the book
have been different if a publisher wasn’t involved in this one? (She was an
indie author)
Was it easier to
write about them now or keeping up with all the drama made it harder?
Can you name a
favorite scene from the book?
Yesss! Napkins
scene! (I call it that hehe) It’s sooo cute and funny you just melt right there
reading that. Taryn and Ryan just start writing things they’ll do for each
other over napkins… *sighs*
Or when they start throwing shoes (expensive shoes, mind you) around the room but they aren’t fighting. Actually they end up having one of the sweetest conversations of the book.

What character
did you like the most? The least? Why?
The best: Marie
(Taryn’s best friend) because we get to see so much more of her and see her
grow as a person. She gets to finally go after her dreams.
The Least: Tammy
(Taryn’s other friend) because she turns into an evil person out of nowhere… I
can’t really get her reasons for it and she was plain mean most of the book.
Was this a series
or stand alone? If it is a series, will you read the rest of the books?
Is the sequel to
Love Unscripted. If there’s more (and I hear there will be one more, YAY!) I
will definitively read it.
Was this a review
book or something you picked out to read? Do you think that influenced your
review?
I picked it. And
no… I always try to be nice and kind when there’s something I don’t like and
ramble over the things I loved weather I was given the book to review or buy it
for me.
What did you rate
this book?
5 stars! Ryan is
an A-List movie star after all, he deserves the best.
Have you written
a book yourself or are you planning to in the future?
Nope. I wrote fan
fics when I was younger and I only finish one full length so… you can imagine lol! It is something I’d like
to do but I just can’t find the will to sit down and write it… there’s so many
awesome books to read first!
What genre is
your favorite and why?
YA or this new
mix between YA and adult. I think I prefer the first because I want to be like
that forever, no big obligations and discovering yourself and the world for the
first time. Yeah that’s awesome. And the second choice I guess it’s because I’m
20 and some things in YA aren’t as easy to relate as they were before.
But if you wanted
something more specific, Urban Fantasy or Paranormal. Give Vampires and were
things and that “I gotta save the world” thing and I’ll be the happiest puppy
in the house.
If you were
shipwrecked on a desert island what 3 books would you want with you and why?
Only 3?! So hard…
Uhm…
Just On Wish by
Janette Rallison because I absolutely love that book even though it makes me
cry like a baby.
Vampire Academy
#1 by Richelle Mead because Rose is my favorite character ever and I can never
get tired of reading that series and even though that is not my fav book in the
series I need, as in my OCD doesn’t let me do otherwise, to take the first.
And Fever #1 by
Karen Marie Mooning because that series is awesome as well besides I’m sure
Barrons in a desert island would be the best company… :P
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?
Yes! Richelle
Mead! And sadly because I live so far away from everything that’s cool in the world
of books I haven’t met any of my fav authors.
Do you prefer
ebooks, paperbacks or hardcover?
You’re making
hard questions… what’s next? Chocolate or Vanilla? Please no!
Right, to the question... Paperbacks. Easy to handle and take in your purse or backpack.
Right, to the question... Paperbacks. Easy to handle and take in your purse or backpack.
Where do you buy
your books?
Honestly wherever
I find the book I want or the Book Depository. Amazon if it’s ebooks.
Have you ever
read a book more than once? Which one and why?
Yes. More than
twice too… All Vampire Academy, Fever series complete, Godmother and Just One
Wish by Janette Rallison. Obsidian and Onyx by JL Armentrout. Hush Hush series…
You know what?
I’ll stop there LOL! And why… because I love the story and the characters and
sometimes I kinda miss them… I read the Hush Hush ones when I got the
paperbacks in Spanish again and sometimes I have to re-read before reading the
latest one in a series.
Do you prefer
movies over books ever?
NEVER.
What book are you
currently reading and in what format (ebook/paperback/hardcover)?
Ceaseless (existence
Trilogy #3) by Abbi Glines in ebook format
Ahhh how much I love Dank…
What book are you about to start reading?
Ahhh how much I love Dank…
What book are you about to start reading?
Beautiful
Disaster before my friend kills me for not reading it.
What book do you
know that you will never read? Why?
I was gonna say
none, actually I had that as an answer for a day then I decided there was no
way I’d read Leif by Abbi Glines,
I hate that character
Are there any new
authors that have grasped your interest recently and why?
Rachel Harris
debut novel My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century was really good so I’m looking
forward the second book.
Also Ginnifer Albin’s Crewel trilogy looks really good.
I wish I could give you something more specific but the truth is I might get interested in a book because the blurb is great or because I had a little chat with the author and really like them.

Have you read a
book that you would like to rewrite the ending of?
Oh yeah! Shadow
Heir (Dark Swan #4) By Richelle Mead, that ending is cruel. I want another
ending, in my head it ends very differently hehe
Do you like book
trailers? Why or why not?
I do! It’s so
good to get to see a bit of what you imagine in your head in film for the book.
And I like how now books gets more publicity.
Or maybe is because in Argentina they don’t do that sort of stuff so I really like it.

Do you have any pet peeves?
I know I do… I
can’t think of anything right now though.
I hate people
leaving lights on around the house, just turn them off on your way out…
I have a “right way” of putting the hangers in my closet… so is annoying when other people put them the other way…
