I'm Candice and I am the owner of the Paperbacks & Purrs blog. I am a Bookstagrammer and my favourite genre is anything Young Adult. In the past I mostly read Young Adult Contemporary fiction or Young Adult Romance, but I have finally started reading and loving Young Adult Fantasy and Dystopian books and I am always willing to try new genres. I am always open to new book recommendations, so let me know your favourites.

​

I will post reviews and other posts on this blog. For Bookstagram challenges I participate in and more book related posts, be sure to check out my Instagram account.

​

I am a slow reader and my book buying habits heavily outweigh my reading habits, so I always have a long TBR list.

​

What I love most about Bookstagram is meeting new friends all over the world who share the same passion and I am so grateful for all the friends I have made through a mutual love of books and for everyone who supports my page.

​

You will see my two cats, Tinkie and Nismo, feature on my page every now and then as well.
