Introductions!

I am newish to GR. Actually joined a couple of years ago, but never was active until a couple of months ago. I don't have an ereader - too many print books here at home just begging to be read! And yet, I keep haunting HalfPriceBooks and acquiring more. I'm also active at PaperBackSwap. Love the games there and can always be found in the forums somewhere!
I mostly read PnR and UF. Everything from YA to Erotica. I've been active in the challenges in the SOS group. Noticed one of the folks there had listed a challenge from this group that looked really interesting - so I'm off to join!
Happy reading everyone.

Can't wait to get to know everyone.



I often think of being a copy writer but un sure of were to start or to just start writing on my pc

Hi, Kristie! (waves from chick lit)

I am a 30 yr old working single mom who loves to read! I lean towards paranormal and series books. I live in Florida and have a 9 yr old son.

My name is Penny-Ann and I am so thrilled that I found Good reads. I thought I was the only obsessive reader out there, I read at least 1 novel every 1-2 days. My friends often look at me like I'm crazy when I tell them about a great book I've just read and its about vampires, werewolves, or witches. I often can't find a good book to read, but since I've discovered Good reads I've had so many great suggestions and found books I never would have tried, but ended up loving.
Some of my favorite authors are Anne Rice, Jeaniene Frost, J.R Ward, Lara Adrian, Kerrilyn Sparks, and Tina Folsom.
Aside from reading, I also love to write about the paranormal, and I've just recently released my first paranormal romance novel.
I look forward to chatting


I am 24 living in the Nashville area. I have moved around a lot but am originally from a small town in Pennsylvania. My mom and sister have always been avid readers, but i could never find anything that really caught my interest. Well that was because they don't read the books I like. When I picked up the Harry Potter series (I was in middle school and they had just started being published) I was hooked.
I had been introduced to a world of fantasy and from their my reading has taken off.
I love to read so my husband got me a nook for mothers day (i have a three yr old son) and hey may be regretting it now since I have been spending way too much money. I love romantic fantasies and can't put them down. All of my friends i have made in the area in the last two years have moved away or are not into reading very much. I need friends and I would prefer them to have this hobby in common :).
I'm so happy that I found good reads so that i may make some friends as well as get some good book recommendations.



I work in marketing and also attending University.
I love reading in my free time (if I don´t have free time I make some...LOL)
I´m pretty much into all paranormal and urban fantasy,etc...
Love Night Huntress Series, Fever Series, Kate Daniels,etcc...
glad to join this group :)

I'm Delia from NH and have just joined good reads recently (when virtual book shelf closed) I have to say I love Goodreads there is a large amount of great content and the discussion groups seem well used. As for info about me I am a mother of one, horse mother of five and a full time photographer. I am an avid reader of everything vampire/shapeshifter and the like. I also enjoy creepy serial killer novels. My goal is to turn my office into a private library and I am well on my way :) I can't wait to chat with everyone about the great books we have all been reading!


My name is Rick and I own Editio Self-Publishing. http://editioselfpublishing.com/ One of my employees was telling me about Goodreads and saying I needed to try it. This place is great. My web site is dedicated to being the hub of expert information on self-publishing. We hire experts in the field to give the latest info and advice for self-publishers. My number one goal in life is for us all to be able to compete with big publishing houses.
I am so happy to be a part of this group because I love hearing what readers and writers are talking about. I can’t wait to chat with you guys, there are so many great discussions going on. Shoot me an email if you have any questions on self-publishing. My number one goal in life is for us all to be able to compete with big publishing houses.

I have been an avid reader ever since I can remember. Started off wiht your typical kids books. Enid Blyton, then onto the Sweet Valley HIgh. As I got older I moved on to different authors Danielle Steel, Jackie Collins, John Grisham to name a few.
I stopped reading for a couple of years after getting busy with starting a family, but my younger brother hounded me for ages to read the Twilight series. Took me a bit, but I read them all within a week & found myself addicted to paranormal.
I love the Black Dagger Brotherhood & have read a few other series as well, including Richelle Mead. I am looking forward to finding more good books & to meet other bookworms too.

My name is Jen, just joined the group and I am a new book blogger (always loved to read..and write though!)
I love all genres, but always find myself drawn to paranormal romance (although I do grind my teeth too, TDF when there are cliches and I do not like regular romance novels) Looking forward to getting to know everyone!
I am currently teaching English in South Korea, exploring the country and book blogging in my free time.














Some of my favorites authors are Nalini Singh, J.R Ward, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Lara Adrian and Jeaniene Frost.
I'm very pleased to meet you all.

Val Here. I am a 42 year old mother of 3 Girls. Twins 21 and a 19 year old. I am a photographer in Southern Ca.
I like the Paranormal Romance, Shapeshifters, and dystopian
I shamelessly steal books from my daughters book shelves in the night.
Favorite Authors- Sherrilyn Kenyon-Rachel Vincent-Jeaniene Frost-J.R. Ward-Patricia Briggs and Kelley Armstrong(so far)
Always on the look out for my next book/series.
Val



Hi Paris
You'll love this group. I am just now reading


Welcome



Ditto

Some of my faves: Karen Marie Moning, Richelle Mead, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Laurell K. Hamilton, Charlaine Harris, J.R. Ward... I could go on, but typing all these names on an iPad that keeps wanting to autocorrect is driving me crazy. :)
(Full disclosure: I'm an author myself, but I read the self-promo rules and promise to abide by them.)
Anyway, nice to meet you all, and I hope to find some great reads here in the future!

My name is Trish McCallan, and yes, I am an author. My debut novel, Forged in Fire (a paranormal romantic suspense) was released middle of last week. I’ve been lurking on Goodreads for a while now, but decided it was time to introduce myself.
I've been an avid romance reader for more years than I'm willing to reveal. *g
I am also JR Ward and Linda Howard's number ONE fan. Seriously, their number one fan (although I would never chop off their feet in order to force them to write faster…yeah, I'm looking into other means of forcing-- never mind)
My first two loves are paranormal and romantic suspense; although I have been known to crack open the cover of a historical a time or two. I am also a pet lover, and the exasperated slave to three golden retrievers and a black lab mix.
That about covers me, I’m looking forward to getting to know everyone!
Heya everyone!

I'm back though ahaha, and it's awesome to be ^o^
