Greetings! My name is Tamara, a thirty-something year old mama of two little ones. I am an aspiring and engaging (and quickly growing) Bookstagrammer (nerdybookmama) and Photographer. I am a book-addicted nerd who absolutely LOVES YA sci-fi, fantasy and fiction books. I have approximately twelve plus years of photography experience, and have studied graphic design and business administration. Being a busy mom, reading is an escape and moment of self-love when I am able to sink into a beautifully written book. I have found that audiobooks are amazingly life-saving when it comes to getting decent reading in on a daily basis. Even though I am still growing my following, I am excited to work with authors and publishers to bring exposure to books, which I love so deeply.

#qotd🌸 – Have you ever read a fictional book written by an actor? . I’ve seen movies and shows with actor @loudphillips since I was a kid. When @booksparks reached out and mentioned he had a new scifi/fantasy book, I was instantly intrigued! . SYNOPSIS: “From the imagination of actor Lou Diamond Phillips (La Bamba, Prodigal Son) comes an epic and unforgettable Science Fiction Fantasy tale. Two worlds at war will bring them together – or tear them apart. Everson didn't want to be a soldier. His parents forced him to serve, as all good Indiran men should. The only problem? His first battle against their mortal enemies goes horribly wrong and he winds up stranded on the enemy planet. Now, Everson has to survive in this strange new land where everyone is out to get him. Not to mention, the planet Mano is covered in unforgiving desert. And he's the target of traitors who want to use him in a dastardly plot to overthrow their mad king, Xander the Firm, by having him retrieve a piece of mysterious and powerful ancient technology known as the Tinderbox. Everything changes during a chance encounter with the king's daughter, Allegra. Despite her station, she's in as grave of danger from her own people as Everson is. Though their peoples have been at odds for centuries, an unlikely spark forms between them. As their worlds come crashing down around them, their forbidden love might be the only chance to end this war forever. Or, it might just be the doom of everyone. Imagine the intrigue of Game of Thrones mixed with the star-crossed romance of Romeo and Juliet... but in space! Inspired by Hans Christian Andersen's famous fairy tale of the same name, Soldier of Indira is perfect for fans of #Dune, #AuroraRising, and #Stardust.” . . This book is right up my scifi loving alley. It is a perfect mix of everything I love in a book. The gorgeous cover is a glossy hardback with stunning artwork. . . Thank you to @booksparks / @gosparkpoint for gifting me this copy of #SoldierofIndira / #TheTinderboxSoldier. . . #fall2020stacks #bookstagram #bookish #instabooks #ilovebooks #readinglist #bookblog #readmore #reads #currentread #booknerdigan #readingaddict #avidreader #newread
