Hi guys! It's Ana and welcome to my blog.
Today's post is the start of a new series called Q&A. In this new series I'm working with book bloggers, bookstagramers and booktubers to know more about their love for books.
The first book lover is a bookstagramer and her name is Moona. She has one of the most beautiful bookstagrams in the universe - thoughtsinprint
Before I share the questions and answers I want to share some links where you can help changing the world:

1. What made you create a bookstagram account?
— I just thought it would be fun to be able to talks aboutbooks and discover titles through the community. It was a great new way to connect to so many people who share your love of reading! Taking pictures is also a fun hobby.
2. Do you think that bookstagram talks about diversity? What can be change?
— It does, I've seen so many post and stories recently and it's been helpful in discovering diverse titles.
3. Do you think that international bookstagramers don't have the same opportunities?
— I think with the market being mostly based in the United States and with there being so many events there, I think it creates more opportunities, but I also don't know much about how the book world works in others countries to be able to accurately judge it.
4. What are the best and worst parts of bookstagram?
— The community, the people you meet, to be able to connect with a complete stranger about a book.
— I think how overhyped a book can get because it's part of a virtual tour or book boxes.
5. Who are your favorite bookstagramers?
— There are so many and here are only a few to name: @bookrepository, @bookishselenophile, @broadenyourminds @cbookaddiction @bookish_mai, @hturningpages
6. What is the best recommendation given by a bookstagramer?
— The Poppy War, I think
7. What book do you think is overhyped? What book you think that doesn't have enough hype?
— Caraval is definitely one I think was overhyped. I've only read the first book and didn't like it enough to continue.
— Dark Days Club is an underrated title I'm always recommending. Also, Retribution Falls is really good and not known at all.
8. If you could switch places with a character. What character would you choose?
— Maybe Luna Lovegood, I'd love to know what happens inside her very peculiar mind.
9. If you could chose a author to be your writing partner. Who would you choose?
— Brandon Sanderson, he's just such a phenomenal writer and I'd love to know how he comes up with such amazing stories, worlds and magic systems! I feel like he'd be able to teach me so much!
10. Who is your favorite author/s?
— Brandon Sanderson, Leigh Bardugo, Jane Austen
11. Are you a writer, a reader or both?
— Just a reader for now, I never really tried my hand at writing.
12. What is your favorite genre? What books you recommend of that genre?
— Fantasy, whether it's Adult (Stormlight Archive, Mistborn, The Poppy War, The Fifth Season), YA (Six of Crows, Dark Days Club, Strange the Dreamer, Three Dark Crowns) or Middle Grade (The Iron Trial, Harry Potter, Trials of Morrigan Crow)
13. What is your most anticipated release for the rest of the year?
— Definitely Rhythm of War by Brandon Sanderson, I'm eagerly counting the days!
14. What book made you falling in love with reading?
— I grew up reading a lot of French titles such as Klonk and Noémie. Then I read a lot of abridged classics - those are what got me into reading. My love for fantasy books came after reading Harry Potter.
15 - What is your favorite book, movie, tv show and song?
My favourite book is most likely The Stormlight Archive series. Favorite movie is LOTR. TV Show is maybe Supernatural. I also really liked Once Upon a Time, The Killing, North & South and Modern Family. I don't listen to much music to be honest.
I want to thank Moona for participating in this post and don't forget to visit her account!
