So what really is Book Couture?

Book Couture is a book blog where I, an Aussie teenage book blogger, am sharing my thoughts on books I love, books I don't love, and everything in between. I write book reviews, participate in memes, and aims to spread knowledge of blogger through my tutorials.

My primary goal for Book Couture is to recommend good books to other people. The most fulfilling thing for me is when someone decides to pick up a book I recommend, and end up enjoying it as much as I did. The thought that someone else out there could be as moved as I am through reading the same story, experiencing the same magic that it evokes, is what moved me to create my own blog.

My favourite genres are fantasy (Harry Potter), paranormal (Vampire Academy), science fiction (Ender's Game, The Hunger Games), historical (The Luxe), and contemporary/chick lit (think Meg Cabot). Although I started my blog initially to read more reviews about books, and record my own opinions, I have found something more - a lively community of bloggers that share stories and listen to each other's thoughts.
