Julia Kitvaria Sarene

Kitvaria Sarene has been a bookseller and purchaser in Germany since 2003. Due to eyes that refuse to do their job correctly, audiobooks are her preferred format. Her obsession with, uhm... love of books ... only grew over the years, just as her love for fantasy and sci-fi did! Especially interested in indie publishing and discovering new talents, she has been a judge for SPFBO ever since 2018. She reads every subgenre and style of fantasy, as long as it’s not overly romantic. While kissy books are fine, she just doesn't have any pations for "the feels" herself. When she's not reading you can find her out running through the woods, or hunting (foam!) animals with her bow and arrows. You can also find her in plenty of other bookish places: https://linktr.ee/kitvaria
