Nucking Futs the Fire Fairy Book-a-holic (firefairyholic) 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.

Ranee | 1902 comments Hi Chelssie, I bet you also like manga and anime. You like Nura too, I think, from your name, that is.

message 8036: by Sherwin (last edited Oct 04, 2013 07:46AM) (new)

Sherwin (sherwinsherwin) | 1 comments 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.


message 8037: by Questian (new)

Questian (sakurastrife) | 922 comments hi sherwin! welcome to the group!!!

message 8038: by Soy (new)

Soy (soyreads) | 1 comments 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.

Beth Mendez (bethmendez) | 1 comments 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.


message 8042: by Ays (new)

Ays (aysrandrup) | 1 comments Hi guys, Ays here. I'm based in Singapore. Total bookworm. I read a lot of different genres, except Science Fiction.

Meliza (mecawish) | 720 comments Welcome Beth and Ays and everyone. :D


message 8044: by Katrina (new)

Katrina Atienza (katrinaramosatienza) | 4 comments 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!


message 8045: by Hannah Shane (new)

Hannah Shane De Leon | 7 comments 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!!!
