Welcome to Addlepates and Book Nerds!

 

I was a book blogger for a while, and I now blog about every little thing in life I can think of. Bear with me while I try all these new posts out… 

I’m a New Zealand teen who gets angry about the world (but not angry enough for tumblr). I like to capture the world through photos and words, and read in all the moments in nz-squadbetween. I have an overwhelming desire to see every corner of the world I possibly can, and hug the people I love in all those corners. I can’t do make up to save myself, and you’re more likely to find me buying matching stationary than matching clothes. 

My nerd hobbies include a new found love of the Avengers, reading YA, watching Game of Thrones, How I Met Your Mother, and every vlogger I can find, and being the last person on the music bandwagons. 

I have big plans for the rest of my life, including university, teaching, travelling, and having an army of puppies. I plan to blog every second of it!

  10. Oh, wow awsome.
    But pleasee can you help me out a little here, yesterday I discovered about the memes and stuff and I really want to do those but I can’t figure how to post, so should I simply do them and they will apear in the home page along with every other post? But I see here you have different pages where you post, how do you do that? Once I opened a new page, no new post option showed up. I’m really confused. Please help.

    1. Just do it like a normal post. With pages, it’s generally for a collection of things (like my book reviews) or a meme that’s been made up. If I were you I’d stick to just doing normal posts, then work out pages once you’ve got a bigger blog 🙂

  18. Hello! 🙂

    We are from Club Bookie, a new website that aims to bring bookworms together through listing up and creating a haven that would feature compilations of anything and everything book related. From bloggers, to vloggers, to bookstagrams, to book clubs, communities, and events — you name it!

    We were just wondering if you might be interested to be a part of the book bloggers list. We would like to inform you ahead that the questionnaire might be a bit long. We really wanted to bring the connection of the readers and the bloggers a bit more closer, thus, the feature-like questions.

    If you’re interested to become a part of our mini project, we hope that you could fill out our form here: http://goo.gl/forms/H6kVjX8drC

    If you have friends who might also be interested to be a part of the list, please feel free to have them sign up!

    Looking forward to hearing from you soon. ❤
