Meet a Book Blogger Post Apocalyptic Playground Gaynor Smith
Meet a Book Blogger Post Apocalyptic Playground Gaynor Smith
WELCOME to my new twice-a-month feature! Because I hear everyone asking where all the bloggers have gone, Ive decided to introduce you all to some of them. Youll get a little about the blog and the person (or people) behind it, their review policy, and all the links so you can follow them! First up, we have Post Apocalyptic Playground! Woooooohoooo!! Get goin!
Hey everyone, my name is Gaynor, and I run the Post-Apocalyptic Playground book blog. Thank you so much to Jo for hosting this opportunity for us to get to know each other!
As a little bit about me, I am in the UK with my awesome husband and 2 little crazies who love to read as much as I do! I have a stressful muggle job by day which is why I love to escape into epic fantasy at night. I started the blog about 18 months ago as I felt that was a gap in the representation of some genres in the Indie blogging community, I wanted to help fill that gap and I kind of hope I have a little. Alongside with promo and reviews, I also hold my �bookish ramblings� where I like to share with my followers things that I have been up to, not only to do with books but also gaming, TV shows, and my new obsession of collecting bookish merchandise (I think I have more candles, teas, Funkos, and bookmarks on my shelf than books lol.) I am also an active bookstagrammer and occasional dabbler on twitter.
When it comes to reading, YA fantasy has to be my favourite genre of all time, but I love dystopian (1984 is one of my favourite reads) and science fiction as well. I�m pretty open as to the direction books take so if it loosely falls into one of the above I�m probably going to like it!
I�m going to come clean and say that I don�t have an active review policy on my blog, I�m kind of a �if I love it, I�ll review it� kind of girl. You won�t ever find a review on my blog that is fewer than 3 stars because I appreciate that firstly, not every book is for everyone, and secondly, I know exactly how much blood, sweat, and tears goes into writing a book, and who am I to bring that down? If you would like to approach me to review (and I am always humbled to be asked) please do. I will be open with you if it�s not my cup of tea, but if it�s on genre, the chances of that are slim ;) I don�t offer reviews on contemporary romance or erotica. I�m not against the content, however, I would just prefer it to be wrapped up in a fantasy world! As well as my blog, I also post my reviews to Amazon UK, Goodreads, and I share the review link on twitter.
You can find me in all kinds of places and I would be humbled if you wanted to contact me or follow me on any of these platforms:
