Hi Nagwa,

Thanks for your interest in my novel. You can have a look here-

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Secret-Arts-A...

I'd love to know what you think! It's a mystery set in Pakistan- a bit of murder, humour and black magic...

Best wishes,

Azma

[Maria]

Salam everyone :) My name is Maria and I just joined this group as I figured I should get more active on goodreads considering I've had my account since 2011. I'm 23, am a student teacher and like reading in my spare(ish) time. These days I'm into literary fiction, but also enjoy fantasy, children's books, classics, and nonfiction books about Islam. Like someone just said, it's so awesome seeing such a lovely Pakistani reading community here. Looking forward to being more active on this group.

[Maira]

Ashraf welcome to the group. never mind the "pretend" sarcastics here. they are just angry at life in general and like to take it out on unsuspecting people. sorry that was your first impression of the group.

i agree... discounted flummery... thanks alot

[Ayesha]

WELCOME NEWBIES!!!!This is a really cool place minus some pretend sarcastics as Maira pointed out!

[Uzair]

Hi,i'm ozair.I like reading fantasy books and basically anything that involes swordfighting,medieval stufc e.t.c.,but i will read anything .My fav genres are fantasy,sci-fi,dystopian,mythology and middle grade.I enjoy playing chess and reading about history.I HATE bad grammar.I have an INTP personality and consider myself something of a lazy genius.

[Thall]

If you're an INTP and consider yourself a genius, then you're most likely a dumb person.

I'm speaking from experience because I'm an INTP and consider myself a genius too.

[Uzair]

I was going to give you a detailed explanation of my words but i see that you are one of those "pretend" sarcastics.You obviously have no idea about the INTP personality type.
P.S
Some advice to you:Insulting everyone when you haven't even met them or the moment they join a group won't get you many friends.
And a good day to you
*Walks away*

[Thall]

I AM an INTP. And I can give you a whole lecture on the cognitive functions. Do I want to? No. Do I need to? Probably. Do I have to? Definitely not.

If you deem my harmless banter an insult, then you're on the path to acquiring less friends.

FACE ME!

[Uzair]

I already have a close circle of friends in real life and online,i have not insulted anyone as of yet so there is no reason for anyone (except you)to dislike me whereas you upon someone join the group simply criticize them.I have not insulted you either so the reason for this outburst is unknown to me i simply responded to you calling me "dumb".I hadn't claimed to be the smartest person on the face of the earth i just said that am intellectually strong but am a lazy person.
There i have faced you
*Continues to walk away*

[Thall]

There's a difference between 'banter' and criticism.

Your critical reading is weak <--- This was a criticism.

I haven't insulted anyone either. You people just have really thin skins. If you could have minds that sensitive, that would be great. I wasn't sure of my calling you a dumb person before (hence the 'most likely'), but you're just affirming my banter. Like, come on!

FACE ME!

[Uzair]

I grow weary of this and it seems you have nothing better to do ,so yeah bye

[Thall]

I've grown*

WAIT!
FACE ME!

[Uzair]

(I grow was intentional,makes it more dramatic)
Your words might have been "banter" but remember that i had just joined the group and had no idea of knowing that it was "banter",I have met some people in my time that simply hate everyone for no reason so i assumed that you were one of them and answered accordingly.

[Thall]

Your being a newcomer cannot change the definition of banter. It was obvious that it was banter. Even if it were not, you should be playful enough to play around with hateful people.

Trolling is a way of life. Embrace it.

[Uzair]

I have no intention of playing with hateful people,they have caused me a sh*t load of suffering.Now if i meet hateful people i destroy them or publicly unveil and assault them

[Maira]

Ozair welcome to the group. althought i can see it was a very bad welcome. i will deal with it. plz dont mind her.
i hope @seriously@ you like it here. and please ignore the pretend sarcastics they are not worth getting angry over.

[Uzair]

Actually i agree with him i'm quite a Troll myself but i keep to my friends and Genio many a hater has caused me pain by the means of what they call "harmless banter" so that was why i was aggressive.And no it was not obvious.

Welcome to the group, Ozair! ^_^ Love it how our favourite genres match! :p

[Maira]

Gino..if you cant be pleasent to other members of the group then take your anger issue somewhere else please. this thread is not for arguements on pointless issues with people you dont know. ATT ALL

[Maira]

Ozair..if you like mythology the you must read American Gods by Neil Gaiman.

[Uzair]

About 90% of books i read are fantasy and all that but i try to get books which are appropriate and well if the book does get mushy i try to draw a line,if it crosses that line well..................*throws book out of window*(Hence Middle grade)

[Uzair]

@ Maira I will try the book.

[Thall]

First of all, I'm male for God's sake.

Secondly, who is hating who? it's banter. And banter is fun.

Thirdly, I'm preaching my wisdom. Am I not allowed to do so?

[Uzair]

(says with an air of innocence )First of all who said you're a female?

Secondly banter is fun only with friends,you don't go to a random person and say Hey man YOU SUCK or whatever.

Thirdly NO!This is not a wisdom link thread/group nor a preaching thread/group

[zoha (A book maestro)]

Welcome all newcomers ! i hope you guys will like it here ...... !!

[Sohaib]

@ozair and @Ashraf so very much welcome to the group.. hope you like it here.. and hope that u project the impression of a few to all others... please feel free to explore the group. you will find huge number of threads on nearly all topics and many i hope will interest you..

@All else let me remind you that this thread is just for intro and intro alone... all link postings and banters have their own specific threads.... you dont wanna wake up the "ahm ahm" :-P

[Sohaib]

*dont project

[Uzair]

@Already starting to get addicted,most threads are very interesting or curiosity arousing.Others not so much.For one i love the Book section(Obviously) and the Chit Chat section.
P.S
A little late with the welcome though.Still thanks.
