Hey Hilary! It's great to meet you! Reunited sounds really intriguing!

Hi my name is Rebecca. I live in Canada and am 15 years old. I love to read and its nice to meet all of you!

Hey there Rebecca! Nice to meet you too!

My name is Jessica, and i'm 16. I live in Missouri, i love music, reading, traveling, and meeting new people. I've never left the US, but have always wanted to :( it's awesome meeting all of you =D

Hey there Jessica! Same here, I've always wanted to travel.

Hey y'all!! (Oh no! The South is eating me!)

I'm Alex from the US (Mississippi- but not really, I swear). I'm 15 and in the 9th grade. I love love love love love reading, but always seem to have a lack of finances to buy all the books I want... Hmmmm.... Oh, I like to sing... And... Travel! I haven't gone out of the US (like y'all), but I REALLY want to!!!! Mostly Europe, but China would be neat too. Oh, I'm also obsessed with Dr. Who and Star Trek (yeah, I'm a nerd.).

I think that's about it. Hoping this will be as fun as it sounds!

Oh, it will. Believe me. What's wrong with y'all?

Doctor WHO! I love that show :)

Yey for people who love Doctor Who! It's been one of my favourites since I was a kid. <3 (PBS running Classic Who during my childhood probably shaped my life more than I will ever realise.) Welcome to the group, Alex.

Hi Soli! I dance too! I only do hip-hop and ballet but I love it. I use to swim for years but quit. I also love to read to get lost in another world!
Welcome to the group!

Welcome Alex and Soli!~

Thank you! And nice to meet all of you! And to all you other doctor who nerds: isn't Matt Smith slightly amazing?? I love him so much :) My friend found a video of him and Karen Gillan dancing around backstage (which just made us love him more)

Hey guys! This group sounds so cool, any group that contains Dr. Who enthusiasts is. I'm Holly and 15 from the UK where good weather is frequent! Sarcasm lowest form of wit? Matt Smith, I find, is weirdly attractive there's just something about him. He likes badgers too, can the man get any cooler!
Anyone else collect Dr. Who cards?

Hi! My name is sehren bloodknight (no joke) I'm almost 15 and I'm from Texas woo! I live to read 24/7 and I love to write as well. I also swim loads during the summer and love doing anything outdoors, but my all time favorite thing is chilling with my besties!

Hello new peoples! Welcome to the group! ☺

hey, holly! and i know what you mean about him. i dont, but there are other fans in the group who might.

even though I do love him and find him incredibly attractive, no, I do not collect the cards :( I haven't seen them anywhere over here though (not many nerds in MS) but I'm sure someone does!

Hey Hey i'm Caila, 13 in the 7th grade. I am SOOO OBSESSED with reading that even my teachers have to take my books away ; ) My bookshelf is filling up as we speak we all these different books that i LOVE.! I am fun and will always voice my opinion on books, so cant wait to discuss.! : D

Sounds like you're the perfect person for this group then.

Yey for all this love for the Warrior Cats! <3

Hi! I am Maxine. I am from India. I am going to turn 18 this December.

It was my sis who got me addicted to books. Now, i can't go to sleep without reading atleast a few pages of a book. Though i mostly read fantasy, i can also read books of other genres if their story fascinates me. My current favourite books are The Book Thief, Percy Jackson and Artemis Fowl

Welcome to the group, Maxine. :)

Hey there, Maxine! I'm sure you'll have a great time here getting to know everyone in this group! :)

Hey I'm Annie. I love to read! Right now I'm reading ShiverShiver. It's pretty good. I play a lot of sports and recently had an injury so i'm starting to reconnect with Goodreads. And I could never live without my laptop, iPad, my iPod, and my phone. Yeah..

ANNIE!! (Did by chance your name used to be Annie*GoSaints*?)

Stalker much, Rae?

Welcome everyone!

Yup, lol. The Saints suck now so I changed my name.

Rebecca.
I'm 17, at university studying creative and professional writing, live in Australia (Queensland to be exact), love writing, currently in the process of developing my own writing style, aspire to be a world-renown author of young-adult fiction and enjoy reading.

Hi. I'm Kayla (though most online friends call me Yums). I think I've probably read more books in my lifetime than every single family member combined, and I'm turning fourteen on April 16.

Right now, I'm reading the City of Fallen Angels.

Hello all!

My name is Brian Rowe, and I just wanted to introduce to all of you my debut YA paranormal romance novel HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME, which is now available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble!

It tells of a high school senior who starts aging a whole year of his life with each passing day! It has comedy, romance, magic, and betrayal... it's a super fun read!

It's the first chapter in a trilogy... I'd love to get some feedback and see what all you YA lovers think of it! Check it out! :)

Hello! Someone invited me to join, but now I'm not sure if this is a group FOR kids/teens or just for people who love kid/teen books--because that would be me! I'm a bit out of my teens. I'm actually an author of books for kids/teens. My name is Kristen Landon, and my latest book is a cool dystopian thriller called THE LIMIT. Pop on over to the Goodreads page on THE LIMIT to check out the cook trailer.

Welcome to you all! :D

Kate- what ever, you just aren't cool enough to be excited when someone comes back to GR after being away for a while.
