Claire is a UK author of two books, both of which sound like such fun reads!
The first book by Claire that was out in March last year is called 'Pretty Bad Things' and a hardcover for this book is coming out in July this year, l love both covers. l think the July cover is perfect for the summer and the March one makes the book look very 'alive!'
Another fun looking cover the the blurb? This sounds like such a great read! The only reviews l have seen on this are positive so it is definitely a book to check out!

And finally, welcome to Books for Company - Claire/CJ! =)
A book you have been meaning/wanting to read for a while?
I’ve got loads of graphic novels that I have bought and they’re just sitting on my shelves, still in the wrappers, so probably one of those. I’ve read most of the Fables graphic novels, but I think I’ve had Number 10 in the wrapper for quite a while, so probably that one.
Favourite book? Probably The Madolescents by Chrissie Glazebrook. I found it in a bargain bucket when I was about 23 and it was the best reading experience I’ve ever had. I laughed, cried, empathised and wanted to be that main character. I’ve probably been trying to emulate that experience in my own writing ever since.
What would you if you found out there won't be internet after today?
Die. Or Google ‘What to do in the event there won’t be internet after today.’
Would you change anything about your books?
Nope.
At an Odeon which arm rest is yours?
Both or neither. No half measures for me
If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go? Japan
How do you spoil yourself?
I eat bread and watch TV whilst not typing.
Movie or Books?
Books.
Night Owl or Early Bird?
Night owl. But because I have to get up early for work, I have to go to bed early too which means my brain is always racing and it takes me ages to get off to sleep.
Book or TV?
Book. There’s very little good stuff on TV at the moment, and when Being Human finishes there will be one less
Paperback or Hardback books?
Paperback. Though reading a hardback does make me feel intelligent
Thank you SO much for joining us Claire, l loved your answers and it was great fun!
Make sure to check out both of Claire's books.
This author seems so nice and fun !! I'm definitely going to check out her books (especially Pretty Bad Things) !! Thank you ;)
ReplyDeleteOoh, I'd love to go to Japan too! Plus, I actually don't think I could live without the internet. I love the cover of both books - lovely interview, thank you!
ReplyDeleteFunnest interview ever! I love those book covers and the author's personality is energetic and infectious.
ReplyDeleteNow I want to eat bread while googling ‘What to do in the event there won’t be internet after today.’
Gonna go look up these books. Thanks for sharing.
