Hello there guys and gals, I'm Alvin Tabontabon from Valenzuela City. newcomer lang po ako rito sa GoodReads.com recently lang kasi nabuhay yung passion ko sa pagbabasa HAHA. Please to meet you all :)
Ang daming newbies! Hi sa inyong lahat! Francis na fan ni GGM, sayang, diniscuss namin ang love in the time of cholera last July, ang dami mo sigurong insights sa discussion. Hehe.
Hello po! I'm chel, 24yo from albay. Bago lang s group pero not so much s goodreads. I'm a book lover(xmpre nasa goodreads eh, hehe) and my preferred genres are paranormal romance, urban fantasy, and historical romance. Pero once in a while ngbabasa din ako ng iba to break monotony.Aside from reading, i also love singing, math, online games, word games, and trivia/gen info games.
Sana magkaroon ako ng friends here thanks po.
Hi Chelssie, I bet you also like manga and anime. You like Nura too, I think, from your name, that is.

Here's the details: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/1...
See you there! :)
Hi everyone!I just joined pretty recently, so here goes. I'm Lyra, 22, and I've been reading my whole life. I read all sorts of genres, but I mainly blog about YA and NA. If you guys are interested in checking out my blog, please do so. Here's the link - http://defiantlydeviant.blogspot.com/ (Some giveaways are running too!)
Great to meet all of you! :)
Hi, I'm Dre. Obviously, I love to read :) I also blog about it here. I like a lot of genres, including dystopia/sci-fi, romance, mystery, and a whole lot. I mostly read fiction books because I like to escape reality. So there, hello!
Hi, folks! Am new to the group, a fantasy buff and looking for kindred souls. I don't get to read as much as I would want (adult life gets in the way) but I'm always in search for the good stuff. I have to confess that I'm a picky reader and I seem to have set some kind of standard that I'm finding hard to match these days so I'm hoping the group will help me find good leads. :) I also go for graphic novels, sci-fi and the classics but it's fantasy--- swords, shields and magic--- that gets my blood pumping. :) I have recently discovered flintlock fantasy courtesy of newcomer Django Wexler and I have to admit that I enjoyed it and am open to more suggestions.
hi sherwin! welcome to the group!!!try and join the F2F discussion this month,we're reading Tigana,it's a high fantasy, check out it's thread for more details...i hope that book will keep your blood pumping!!!
Hello po everyone :) My name is Zoe Guadalupe :D I'm a new member here so please be kind to me XD.
I've been obsessed with books since I was in third grade. I remember myself reading a lot of science books back then but I still suck at science :)))
I enjoy all kinds of books and my favorites are the works of John Green, Neil Gaiman, Stephen King, Shakespeare, Bob Ong and David Levithan.
I also enjoy writing stories and poems. :)
And I'm also a huge SUPERWHOLOCK fangirl :D
My favorite doctor is ten
And I love Tom Hiddleston, Ed Sheeran, Johnny Depp and Zooey Deschannel.
As you can see I'm a multiple fandom fangirl and starbucks always mispells my name.
And oh, I'm short, with a 1960's haircut and braces. Lots of people have mistaken me for being a 6th grader but I'm really a senior. :)))
And I'm very awkward and I hate math. :D
Long live and prosper.

At first I thought it was weird or I'm just lazy. I can't review while having an unfinished novel in my hand. So I learned.
Now I scheduled a time frame for a novel so that it wouldn't hit the day of the exam.
And also I realized I'm a bookworm.
Hi guys, Ays here. I'm based in Singapore. Total bookworm. I read a lot of different genres, except Science Fiction.
hello! Just joined yesterday. I'm a chick lit/YA writer, bookworm, mom, corporate slave, etc. My thing now is retelling classics as contemporary romances. Recently released Well Played, which is basically Pride & Prejudice in UPLB, and now working on something similar for Jane Eyre. After this I think I'll try a completely different genre naman: dystopian S/F!
Hi, I'm Hannah, I've been a "mushroom" member for a few years now haha It's just that I'm cleaning my room(doesn't happen very often) and realized that I need space for new books, so, even though it pains me... I need to sell/trade/giveaway some books :( I dunno how to attach the pic here, but it's in my profile if you're interested. P.S. Proceeds, if there are any, will be used to buy new books. (House of Hades, Fall of Five, Prodigy). :)
Thanks!!!
