1. What is addict with a book all about?
addict with a book covers most, if not all, book and reading content for bookaholics and avid readers. I create book reviews and recommendations, character and plot analyses, book-related articles, bookworm memes, and the likes. I focus more on fiction books when making reviews and analyses. It's basically a Bookblr created by a reader for readers.
2. Why blog about books and reading?
One of the toughest challenges I've faced so far as a beginner blogger was selecting a blog niche. It took me a lot of Googling and brainstorming to come up with addict with a book. I decided to blog about this topic because I'm a total bookworm and I'm extremely passionate about reading. I want to provide more content for readers on Tumblr. Books are an awesome part of our society and I want people to know that.
3. What's with the blog name?
My favorite songwriter Pete Wentz once said that everyone's an addict. We're all addicted to something, and in my blog's case, it's books. The difference between "book addict" and "addict with a book" implies that my fangirl addictions other than books, and I think it's pretty cool.

If you have any queries, feel free to message me or send in your questions!
I will normally post about two to three times a week. However, when my school year starts in late August, my posting time will decrease. I am active every day on Tumblr.
I hope to make you smile and enjoy my beginner blogging content. Whether you're an book fanatic like me or a non-reader, you're welcome! Feel free to dive in the wonderful world of reading.
“A cat has absolute emotional honesty: human beings, for one reason or another, may hide their feelings, but a cat does not.” ― Ernest Hemingway
Things we should do in English class instead of just Shakespeare:
Compare & contrast a Rick Riordan book, an original Greek myth, and/or a retelling like Song of Achilles
Instead of talking about poetic devices, look for imagery, symbolism, and color theory in comics/graphic novels/Webtoons (Lore Olympus is a great example!!)
Analyze a Broadway musical instead of a Shakespeare play. (There’s SO MUCH to unpack in Dear Evan Hansen)
Have half the class read a book, and the other half listen to the audiobook. Do the audiobook kids have more similar interpretations? How much does the inflection and (unsaid) thoughts of the narrator influence ones takeaway?
10k notes and I’ll show this to my English teacher
Books with cats make the best reading environment ♡
I mean, a fictional widowed lawyer who reads a lot and advocates for racial justice is sexy as hell
