Maria (mariasm) | 2441 comments Hi Emily! We like the same books, except the Infernal Devices trilogy - it felt forced to me and i thought it is not as good as TMI series :)

Enjoy it here!

Adrian (darkhale) | 6 comments Hi! I'm Adrian, I just joined yesterday.ginagamit ko lang tong site na to dati to see reviews of books before ko sila basahin. And I'm from Pangasinan, (just a small town boy living in a lonely world.. :P) most of my friends here don' really see the joys of reading a good novel. So I'm really glad to find this group!

It feels so frustrating when I read a really good book and I really want to talk about it tapos walang nakaka-appreciate or nakakarelate. :(

I've been reading since I was a kid. This year, sobrang lumuwag ang schedule ko, kaya sobrang daming books ang nabasa ko.

I'm a huge fan of fiction, sci-fi and adventure. and also comedy.

well, these are some of the books or series that I've read,

-Harry Potter Series (Best. Series. Ever. I've grown up with the series kaya super special to sakin. :))
-His Dark Materials Trilogy
-Chronicles of Narnia
-Series of Unfortunate Events, 39 Clues, Spiderwick Chronicles, Alex Rider Series (Kid's Stuff, i know, but I still love these)
-Inheritance Cycle (just finished reading Inheritance yesterday and i LOVE it!)
-Hunger Games Trilogy (AWESOME!)
-Chaos Walking Trilogy (The ending was great.:D worth the wait hehe)
-City of (Bones, Glass & Ashes) Basta yung first three lang. :D
-Da Vinci Code, Angels & Demons and The Lost Symbol
-Percy Jackson Series (basta all seven books, hehe :P)

I can't list them all, and of course, hindi naman lahat ng binabasa ko eh series. these are just the ones that kinda stood out. hehe

I hope I can find friends who can suggest other wonderful reads. na nakakarelate din sa isang bookworm na tuladko. :D

message 5471: by Gabriel (last edited Dec 16, 2011 07:04AM) (new)

Gabriel (gbcatapang) | 13 comments Hi guys!!! I just joined the group!!! ^^ I hope I'll have a great experience here. Anyway, I've been a member of the site since July and well, I haven't actually been using the site's, uhmm. . . social features--I have no friends, I have only 2 groups, that includes this one, and I don't even try adding friends. All I've been doing, I guess, was just using the site as a way of keeping track of the books I read. And so, here I am trying to actually use these social features. And I'm starting right here. ^^

Anyway, I'm Gabriel. I love books (obvious naman 'di ba?) and I love collecting them. I like reading science fiction, fantasy, horror/thriller, and sometimes, even a bit of young adult novels. But. I never read romance! Yeah, I don't like reading romance. I don't even go near those novels. No seriously, I can't stand reading those kind of novels. I feel awkward reading them.

My absolute favorite book is The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. I really loved this book, it even made me cry in the end. Also, one of my favorites is the Percy Jackson & The Olympians series by Rick Riordan. I think that these books are so cool!!! Another series that I absolutely love is The Monstrumologist series by Rick Yancey. I love the gore, the horror, and the thrill I get from reading The Monstrumologist! I honestly almost puked when I was reading the first book in the series. Yep, it's that gory!!! But the book that's most important to me is The Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan. This book was released on my birthday!!! And when I found that out, I almost shouted out loud but I held it or else my parents would have thought I was some crazy lunatic shouting at nothing! xD I also got this on my birthday, so, the book ages as I do!!! I absolutely love that!!! o(^.^o)(o^.^o)(o^.^)o

Well, that's a bit about me! I hope I'll have a great time at this group! Hehe ^^

message 5481: by Tsuna Arlovsk (new)

Tsuna Arlovsk | 1 comments Hello po, Merry Christmas :)

I am Frigga, 14, isang third year high school sa Quezon City Science High School.

When I was younger, I never liked reading books. Nagfocus lang ako sa anime and stuffs. The only books I read were those books na required sa school. Pero last month, I met a new friend who loves reading. She recommended me some books, pero 'di ko pa nababasa yung mga na-recommend nya. hehe.

So, ayun. Kailan lang ako naging interested sa books. Naging interested ako mainly because of John Grisham (A Time To Kill was one of the required books to read in our school and I loved it) and Dan Brown (someone special gave me a hardcover copy of The Da Vinci Code and told me I would like it, but no, I actually loved it), so far my favorite writers.

I like fiction, mystery, adventure and romance stories. Mga binabasa ko ngayon: Mockingjay (ang ganda ganda ng Hunger Games!!) and Pride and Prejudice (required sa school, hehe)

Since ngayon ko lang na-discover ang wonderful world of reading, onti pa lang ang nababasa kong books. Sana mag-enjoy ako sa stay ko dito, at makahanap ng iba pang books na someday ay magiging favorites ko.:)


message 5482: by K.D. (new)

K.D. Absolutely (oldkd) | 6065 comments Welcome, Frigga. Apo. haha

Mabuti't na-discover mo ang reading. Tama ka, maganda ang magbasa. At kahit lolo mo na ako, nabasa ko ang 3 libro ng THG haha. So, welcome ka rito dahil marami tayong fans ng series na yan. I also liked P&P at DB books pero di sing-ganda ng 1st book ng THG ha ha.

Joyzi (joit) | 1768 comments @Frigga mahilig din ako sa Anime, first love ko din ang Anime e

Ronald Lim (ronreads) | 1 comments Hi!

I'm Ronald, and I have a book blog. You can find out how I got into reading here: http://ronreads.com/?p=6

My favorite book at the moment is still Colette's Green Wheat. The translation is so sensual and atmospheric. It's so easy to get lost in it.


message 5487: by kento (new)

kento (daechwita) | 40 comments Hi! 1 month na po akong member ng group na ito kaso ngayon lang ako magpo-post sa introductions.
Mahilig po ako magbasa ng mystery and thriller books, lalo na yung mga libro ni Agatha Christie, gustong gusto ko yung mga twist endings sa dulo.
Nagbabasa rin ako ng mga children's books, adventure books, at biographies.

Apokripos (apokalypse) | 3321 comments Sa tuwing nakikita ko pangalan ni hahaha, natatawa na lang ako bigla.

hahaha and I are the same, our existence is a joke.


message 5495: by K.D. (new)

K.D. Absolutely (oldkd) | 6065 comments Simula lang yan. Magpapalit din sya ng pangalan kapag nakipag-meet up na. Si Sheryl dating frustratedangel so tanong itatawag namin sa iyo? frustrated or angel? Sabi nya sheryl. After few days, sheryl na ang gamit :)

Si Po or Tom, nag-reveal na ang tunay nyang pangalan ay ...

Si Jzhunagev, ang tunay nyang pangalan ay ....

So, si hahaha, I am sure hindi yan ang tunay nyang name!!! Para tuloy gusto kong palitan ang trademark kong "ha ha" ng "tuwahahaha" kaso parang mahaba.
