HEY, I’M CYNTHIA…

Welcome to Cyn’s Fiction Addiction, my personal book haven where book lovers, authors, and avid readers unite!


If you love to read, you’re in the right place! I’m obsessed with books and read as much as I possibly can. This blog started as a way to share my thoughts on the books I’m reading, but it has since grown into a space where I also support and publicize the hard work of authors bringing their stories to life.


Originally called The Book Basics when I launched in 2016, my focus was mostly on book reviews. A few years later, I began conducting author interviews, and after joining the “bookstagram” community in 2022, I rebranded as Cyn’s Fiction Addiction to reflect my love for all things fiction.


Along the way, I also launched Pinto Prose & Publicity, my editorial and PR services business, where I offer support to new and indie authors, specializing in thrillers, romance, and fantasy. I know from speaking with many indie authors that traditional services can be out of reach, so I offer affordable pricing to help authors make their dreams come true without breaking the bank.

Here’s what you can expect to find on the blog:

📚 Book Reviews (including ARCs and already-published novels)
🔍 Book Spotlights & Features (highlighting upcoming releases)
🖋️ Author Q&As
📅 Monthly Wrap-Ups of what I’m reading and watching
✍️ Tips & Checklists for editors and authors, covering everything from the editorial process to media relations and growing your audience


I can’t wait to connect with more book lovers! Feel free to email me at cynthia@cynsfictionaddiction.com or DM me on IG @cynsfictionaddiction to chat all things books and life in general. If you’re looking for author services, you can reach me at pintoprosepublicity@gmail.com or fill out the contact form below.

When I'm not reading…

I’m a full-time Project Manager and a proud mom of two boys (5 and 2).


I’m also bilingual, speaking Portuguese fluently, and I’m a first-generation American.


I love trying new foods, experimenting with wine pairings, and hosting dinner parties (though my husband is the chef in our house)!
