Miami Book Fair is partnering with Christina Martin, a local bookstagrammer from Westchester, Florida who provides the literary community with amazing content and is joining us to celebrate books and their impact in our community through an interactive reading challenge, Miami Reads. Introducing an amazing bookstagrammer who is a must follow for anyone who is engaged in the literary community.
Why do you love books?
Ever since I learned to read I’ve loved immersing myself in a story. I can’t pick a favorite – that’s way too hard, especially for a mood reader like myself.
Favorite part of Miami Book Fair?
I have two: Fifteen years ago I visited the fair for the first time and was blown away by the sheer size of the event and all of the authors. And going to the in-person Miami Book Fair in 2021 after things started opening up was such a joyful feeling!
Fun fact about Christina:
I can balance a sword on my head.
