Hey there! I just joined Smashbomb in June 2018 & My name is Michelle ! I'm a true book ADDICT!!! I read about 10-12 books a month & this year the goal that I set for myself is to reach 100 books read. I hit 87 last year---so close! I'm currently sitting at 79, so I’m Actually 5 Books ahead of schedule ?
I am not working currently due to an array of health issues as well as I have been taking care of my Dad who has cancer--- needless to say I have a LOT of time on my hands to read & review! Before I got sick I wrote Press Releases for a casino and entertainment magazines, and was a media coordinator/advertising assistant, followed by a writer for a local newspaper where I reviewed books, movies, restaurants & more.
I not only review on goodreads, Netgalley and amazon but I have two albums located on my personal Facebook (1300 friends) in which I upload books that I recommend versus books that I did not enjoy. I am a pretty high- rater and my ratio of good to bad books is probably 1 bad to every 25-40 books! Friends are always, always, always asking me to give them book suggestions based on their taste. I love doing that! I also frequent booktube channels and make recs there ❤

I enjoy reading books of all kind but thrillers & dystopians are definitely my jam!

I plan on creating my own booktube channel within 3-6 months including book hauls, book recommendations and monthly wrap ups of what I read.

I hope that you'll consider sending me some books, cds, dvds, products,to review! I'd be truly honored that you value my opinion enough to rate them! My goodreads avg rating is 4.03 with 380 books rated.

Listened to episode 27
I listened to episode 27 all about curses, which I thought was a perfect theme for October and Halloween! For some reason when it comes to anything scary I am all ears, any time of the year ! I try to attend any haunted attraction that I can. The two guys Steven and Kevin discuss two highly popular movies Evil Dead and Gremlins. First and foremost, they mention Stephen King which is my main man when it comes to authors! I can’t wait until the second part of the movie “It”is released. Thriller and horror books are my jam! Secondly, they bring up Beetlejuice which is another fave. Beetlejuice, Gremlins and evil dead are all similar types of the genre comedy meets horror. I have heard of loot crate before because of all of my booktuber friends that subscribe to the box. I love watching the unboxings and would really appreciate the opportunity to receive one and review it! I plan on being a booktuber in 2019. I would put the different themed Items in the box with my beetlejuice and gremlins funko pops because that was the episode that helped me win!! I even have gizmo on my keychain ! I also like how the guys bring in a brother , Rob, to interview as well. Makes me wonder what future guests they will have. A third opinion brings a whole new element to the podcast. Great job! Ps-loved Idle Hands too!

Fantastic!
I won this remote in a smashbomb giveaway and I could not be any more grateful!!! My parents already have one Roku Television & I gave this other remote to them for the second tv that they had in their home and now they can have a wide variety of shows, movies, etc. at their fingertips throughout their own little home! They live in an area where it is hard to get cable, and the installation is incredibly expensive so this works wonders for them! Especially since it can be linked to a Netflix! They are loving life! Sometimes it really is the little things! Thank you again so much! Hooking this up literally took 10-15 minutes! Easy breezy!
