About Me

 

Lynsey aka The Demon Librarian

Hey, everyone! I'm Lynsey, the blog founder, and I've been blogging and reviewing pretty constantly for around 2 years now. I'm British, and I reside in a little seaside town in the north-west of England. My favourite genres to read are Urban Fantasy, Paranormal Romance, Steampunk, Dystopian, Historical Romance (Highlanders! Och aye!), Sci-fi Romance, Paranormal Mysteries, and anything else that has a dash of romance, action and magic!

I read a lot. Usually around 250 books a year. That's a combination of real books and audiobooks. I never go anywhere without either my iPod or eReader, and more often both! My top 5 book series (this list changes all the time) are currently: The Hollows by Kim Harrison, The Cassandra Palmer series by Karen Chance, The October Daye series by Seanan McGuire, The Kate Daniels series by Ilona Andrews and the Mercedes Thompson series by Patricia Briggs.

What I look for most when reading are good characters. I can read an "okay" story with brilliant characters and call it a job well done. But an amazing story with only flat, 2D, automaton characters in it that I can't connect to, will have the opposite effect, and probably leave me very frustrated over the missed opportunity. I want to be made to care about the characters; to grin, to laugh, to cry, to ache. That's good characterisation to me.

When I'm not reading or reviewing I'm usually chatting about books. Obsessed? Who me? If you want to you can find me on the following websites:
