Mei (meijey) I am Mei, 16 and currently residing in the Philippines. I am more into books in these kinds of genres: YA, Contemporary, Romance, Mystery, Suspense, Academic, Memoir, Inspirational, Realistic Fiction. I'm not into Vampires, Gothic fiction or dystopian or any fantasy or sci fi but I'll try to explore more genres as soon as I can.

I am currently a college student studying computers, and I am kind of an introvert :D

Guesa | 5 comments Hello everyone :) My name is Guesa and I'm a addict reader. I like to read all kind of books but definitely YA is my beautiful addiction! If a book has a good plot, is well written and has one or two hotties...I'M IN!

This is a little off-topic but have you read Quiet - non-fiction explaining introverts? I'm an introvert and wished I read this when I was younger because it would have help me understand/accept myself a lot more when everyone was telling me to be outspoken. You'll LOVE it! But, of course, keep reading YA romance! Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking

message 417: by Kathleen (new)

Kathleen (hellokathleen) The name is Kathleen, and I love to read all things, but especially romance because it makes me smile. As to my favorite book "I could no sooner chose a favorite star in the heavens". Oh, and I love quoting movies. :)


message 418: by Carla (new)

Carla Hanna (carlajhanna) | 25 comments I just came off of a Nicholas Sparks-fest. He's not YA romance but some fit into the genre. I love his love stories! Rather than get tired of the formula, I found it so easy to read the next one in a flash. I started Safe Haven and stopped. Does it get better? I have not seen the movies except The Lucky One. I own Notebook but know that when I see it I'll cry so I haven't played it yet!

Susan I'm Susan and a newbie! I've been reading YA for years and the contemporary romance is fast becoming my favorite kind! I don't really like the dystopian books......the only sad part about being here is most of you were born after I graduated high school! Hahaha I'm excited to be here and I can tell you my TBR pile is exploding because of it! :) I love getting book recommendations so please......FIRE AWAY!!!

I'm Michelle--and I've been reading YA (and everything else) since I was probably too young for it--which is probably the reason I'm such a romantic, I'm sure.

Valeria (rainyvaleria) | 34 comments I'm valeria <3
I'm 13 years old, and I've never really been interested in books until I began middle school, when I was 9 years old. I am almost 14 now and moving onto middle school <3 My favorite authors are:
James Patterson, Veronica Roth, and a few select others.
I usually zone out once I read, and, I read rather quick :D.
