About The PJV
Parajunkee’s View, started in August of 2009, primarily focuses on books, fiction genre books to be specific. But, over time the blog has morphed into a community outlet for much more, including movies (usually based on books), television shows and other entertaining, artistic outlets. The blog also features tutorials for other bloggers on how to improve their own blogs, and memes that target improving page views and networking. The blog was created by Rachel Rivera, who is also known as Parajunkee. She continues to maintain most of the blog, only letting go slightly of the reigns on the weekends, when her friend and fellow New Orleanian, Patti of LovesFabRomance slips in a bit of contemporary romance.
Parajunkee.com has won several awards, including the BBAW Best Written Blog Award and Best Feature awards. Parajunkee.com was also a finalist in the Goodreads.com Independent Book Blog awards.

LovesFabRomance
aka Patti – Introvert, worrier, owner of the blog “Caught in a FAB Romance” and Romance guru on Parajunkee’s View. I work full time, have been married to my high school sweetie for 20 years (I’ve decided to keep him) and have three awesome children to show for it. I read to get away from it all… You can also find me on twitter: @

Mother. Book blogger, book reader, book lover, book writer. I also make a mean pizza pie. Find Lori on
Twitter.
I’m a 24-year-old graduate student living in New York. You can often find me in my car, outside my workplace, reading; in my workplace reading; or lying in bed, with the TV turned to Cartoon Network, reading. I’ll read anything as long as it’s not non-fiction, but I usually prefer paranormal romance and erotica. My other interests include psychology, shopping in Manhattan, and constantly redesigning my room. Find Michaniya on
Twitter.
I am 14 and live in the wondrous land of tea and scones, England. I am starting to think I have a strange obsession with books, but doesn’t everyone? I do have a tiny confession, though – I absolutely loathe tea and scones.
I’m just a girl who adores books! Reading has been my passion for as long as I can remember and I’m hoping I can pass that on to my son. When I’m not buried in a book I enjoy spending time with family, kicking my husband’s butt in video games, and watching my favorite TV shows (I sort of have an unhealthy obsession with reality TV). Random fun facts: I used to be a Registered Nurse until I realized I just wasn’t happy, and my husband is 20 years older than me! Feel free to connect with me on Twitter:
