Reviewers on the #RBRT are very busy hard working people who give their time freely, so I thought it was about time readers had the chance to meet them and find out a bit more about them.

Hobbies, interests, and any pets?
I love going to the cinema, theatre, and visiting museums. I enjoy long walks anywhere, but especially along the seafront, in the countryside, or through the old towns within European cities. I love cooking for friends and family. What I enjoy most is reading, discussing literature, and writing. Jacky has been living with me since she took shelter in my porch almost sixteen years ago! According to the vet, she’s part Japanese Spitz and part poodle.
I asked, “What new genres have you tried from the review team list?”
Historical, crime, romance, mystery, women’s fiction.
“What genres make you step out of your comfort zone?”
I have a hard time getting into political thrillers, fantasy and dystopian. I don’t mind erotica, as long as there’s a sound plot and character development.
“What do you look for in a book?”
Usually it’s the characters in a novel, which draw me in. I like to hear them speak and interact, feel their concerns, watch them grow, and observe them cope with the events the author throws at them!
“Book Styles you don’t enjoy?”
I have a hard time getting into political thrillers, fantasy and dystopian. I don’t mind trilogies, or series, but I’m not keen on books which are too long (more than 120,000 words).
“Do you read + review Non-Fiction?”
I’m not keen on reviewing non-fiction, unless it’s a topic I’m very interested in.
Hi Rosie – it’s good to meet Luccia – and how wonderful she lives in Spain and can get out and about in Europe so easily – I know it’s not difficult from here, but much easier to jump in a car. It’s great you’ve got such a wonderful team of reviewers .. cheers to one and all – Hilary

Thanks Hilary, Spain does appeal as we head into winter.

Thanks Hilary 🙂 The weather in Spain is definitely an advantage, and of course, London’s under two hours by plane. I do get a bit ‘lonely’ sometimes, and wish I could interact more personally with readers and writers, although, but my ‘virtual’ friends make up for that!

A terrific interview. I love Luccia’s response to “Hobbies, interests, and any pets? Except for cinema (I don’t care to watch movies unless it’s with my grandchildren watching Disney movies. etc.), we could be twins. Except for the red hair that is. Mine is grey covered with brown. Oh, and Unfortunately, I don’t have a dog, but I would love to. Just haven’t been able to convince Hubby. I also prefer character driven books. Yep, I think we’re sisters.
