Feature Friday: Laura Hunter

Welcome to Feature Friday! Every Friday I feature a fellow book blogger so you can get to know someone new and follow what they do!

Today I am excited to welcome blogger (and author) Laura Hunter.

I interviewed Laura as an author in October. You can view that interview HERE

Today, I'm talking to Laura as a blogger! So Let's hear what she has to say in answer to my questions!

Where were you born and where do you call home?

I was born in Sydney but now call home on the Central Coast of NSW, Australia

How long have you been a blogger? 

I only recently got into blogging the past few months.

What is the name of the book you most recently blogged about? 

Broken Aro by Jen Wylie.

Did you like the cover? Rate it on a scale of 1 stars to 5 stars, 5 being the best? 

I would have to give it 3.5 stars, I like the cover but to me it is not breathtakingly amazing.

If you could ask the author 3 questions about this book, what would they be?

Where do u/have you gotten inspiration? Are there more books in the series? If so how many have you got planned? Do you base your characters on people around you?

Can you name a favorite scene from the book?

Anytime Aro is with Prince.

What character did you like the most? The least? Why?

Aro the most because she is stubborn yet brave but also has vulnerability.

Was this a series or stand alone? If it is a series, will you read the rest of the books?

Series. Yes I will read the rest of the books.

Was this a review book or something you picked out to read? Do you think that influenced your review? 

Yes this is a review book. No it didn’t influence my review.

What did you rate this book? 

I rated this book 4 stars on goodreads.

Have you written a book yourself or are you planning to in the future? 

Yes I have written a book and have more in the works.

What genre is your favorite and why? 

Young adult urban fantasy/ paranormal fantasy is my favourite to read because the worlds are amazing and they inspire my imagination, this is also why I love to write in the genre as well.

If you were shipwrecked on a desert island what 3 books would you want with you and why? 

Any of the Infernal Devices books by Cassandra Clare, a Kathy Reichs novel and my own.

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? 

I would love to meet Kathy Reichs. I really wanted to meet Cassandra Clare and had the pleasure of doing so last year in Sydney at her Nephilim Ball, she was amazing and incredibly down to earth and warm and friendly and she made it worthwhile as she took the time out to answer all her fans questions and have photos with them.

Do you prefer ebooks, paperbacks or hardcover?

Hardcover first and foremost because they feel more special, paper back second as I love the feeling of holding a book in my hands and also the smell. I have recently gotten into ebooks and I love how easy it is to read.

Where do you buy your books?

Amazon or my local bookstore.

Have you ever read a book more than once? Which one and why?

Yes. Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare, The His Dark Materials trilogy by Phillip Pullman and The Hobbit all because they were so amazing and because I needed to refresh my memory before a sequel or a movie came out.

Do you prefer movies over books ever?

I think sometimes I prefer the Hunger Games movie over the book sometimes, but some days I change my mind lol. Lets see what happens when City of bones movie comes out!

What book are you currently reading and in what format (ebook/paperback/hardcover)? 

Just finished Broken Aro in ebook.

What book are you about to start reading?

The casual Vacancy by JK Rowling.

What book do you know that you will never read? Why? 

50 shades of grey because the writing is terrible plus I am not interested in it as I am catholic and that is classified as porn to me. Also a woman should never submit to a man.

Are there any new authors that have grasped your interest recently and why?

Yes, Melissa Andrea, because she is a lovely person plus her book and its cover are amazing. Look out for Flutter soon to be released in October! Melissa is going to be stopping over at my blog in November, so check for details.

Have you read a book that you would like to rewrite the ending of? 

Yes, Mockingjay because that ending sucked! Really? Katniss having children with Peeta? I was team Gale! Plus Gale also got up and left so I am not happy with any of it.

Do you like book trailers? Why or why not? 

I don’t mind them.

Name your three favorite book covers:

1. Clockwork Princess

2. Flutter

3. Divergent (though this will probably change when I see mine.)
