About
Ever since I can remember I have loved reading, from children’s books to (psychological) thrillers, detective novels, contemporary and classic literature, as well as metaphysical and visionary fiction and … books on (the art of) writing.
Libraries never fail to impress me, those big shelves, overloaded with so many books in all those colours. They look like magic to me, captivating and extremely interesting.
I remember going to the library and feeling like a child in magic wonderland. So many books, so much to choose from, the atmosphere, I loved it. At the age of 12, I discovered English books (native Dutch speaker/writer), the first were Agatha Christie’s mysteries.
Dame Agatha Christie has been my life companion ever since, she offers entertainment, brain exercise, insight into the hidden depths of mankind’s psychology and motives as well as adventurous surroundings. I love her characters and insights into human nature. ![Agatha Christie famous author of crime novels (Newscom TagID: mrpphotos003283) [Photo via Newscom]](https://i0.wp.com/carolinevincent.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/bb-plugin/cache/Agatha-Christie-Photo-square-circle.jpg?resize=236%2C236&ssl=1)
Reading is my passion – from romantic to fiction, classics and literature, with detectives and mystery as my favourites. Must be the influence of Agatha Christie!
My interests are widespread: from Agatha Christie to John Irving and the historic literature of Leo Tolstoy. There are many writers I love, like Thomas Hardy and Harry Mulish’s Discovery of Heaven: a favourite.
Reading feels like discovering new worlds, broadening my horizon and connecting to new characters and writers to love.
That is why I am happy to be working with authors, ‘my’ authors. I believe the creation of a book, writing, is art. One I hugely admire.
I feel lucky to do what I love. To be a part of the bookish world. To share, and spread the love for books & reading. To help authors find and grow their readership.
Let’s stay in touch!

This is a great introduction to you. You do so much writing and reading and it’s a always a surprise to remember that English isn’t your first language. You’re very accomplished!

I don’t want to say this, but … Bits About Books is a brilliant site for indie authors who are looking to have their book reviewed. Caroline writes concise, heartfelt reviews, and is professional and posts reviews immediately to all major social media sites. And the reason I don’t want to say any of this is because more authors will clammer to send her review requests, which means that when I approach her for my next review, she will be too busy!!
