[K.G.]

Hi everyone, I'm K.G. and I'm on Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada.

In fiction, it's a toss up between Carlos Castaneda's The Teachings of Don Juan and John Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men. Non-fiction wise, Peter Senge's Presence speaks to my hope for a transformation in our world's leaders, organizations and our collective future.

I love this site! To fellow aspiring authors, I'd be happy to review your book if you provide me with an advance copy.

My favorite book is I Know Why the Caged Birds Sing

My favorite author right now is Rashonda Tate Billingsley, but that changes as I read new books.

Hi Ana,
What was it about this book that makes it your favourite? Was that one of King's first novels?

[Alittlebubble]

I'm Sofie from Denmark. I don't have a favourite book, but one of my favourite authors is Anna Todd.

[Mary]

Hi. My name is Mary Mack from Dundee, NY. I guess my favorite book will always be Gone with the Wind. I first read it at the age of 15 and it instilled in me a lifelong love of reading, propelling me to the next book, and the one after that, and the next...thank you, Margaret Mitchell, you changed my life!

These days, I enjoy reading suspense mainly. Currently, my favorite book is Guilty by Laura Elliot.

Hi K,
Yes! "The Long Walk" was actually the first novel written by King before he..."
Hi Ana, Wow! I'll definitely add it to my want to read list. Thanks.

[Tiffany]

Good afternoon, fellow bibliophiles! My name is Tiffany and I am a 40-year-old avid reader from Maryland. I read a variety of different topics and genres. For example, my recent check-outs are anything at all about New Orleans (I'm a tad bit obsessed, always have been), "Truly Madly Guilty" on audiobook (big fan of Liane Moriarty), Katey Sagal's memoir, a YA novel called "The Magnolia League" (not a huge YA fan but this one was pretty good), and slow-cooker cookbooks. Some topics from my personal library include Baltimore, Ireland, New Orleans, Jodi Picoult, Philippa Gregory, Nicholas Sparks, Laura Lippman, Kristin Hannah, Vikings, Joanne Fluke, Janet Evanovich, the Kennedys, anything mafia-related, and anything southern (Tennessee, Alabama, Louisiana, and Georgia, specifically). I am always looking for recommendations so feel free to tell me about your favorites. I'm glad to be here and I hope I can contribute to the fun!

[L.L.]

Hi! My name is L. L. Walters and I am from a small town near St. Michaels, Md. My favorite books are those that allow imaginations to soar no matter what the reader's age, such as the Harry Potter series.

[Tmason]

I'm excited to join the book club and have already finished "Behold the Dreamers".

I currently live in New York, but I'm originally from Baltimore.

One of my favorite authors is Jane Austen. I can reread her books again and again and enjoy them every time. If I had to pick my favorite Jane Austen books, they would be "Persuasion" and "Northanger Abbey".

[Nancy]

Hello everyone,
I am a Canadian author who recently switched from living and working around the world in the finance profession to write about my most memorable travel adventures.

You may hesitate to get excited about an accountant's book, but every company around the world needs accountants and it enabled me to get to some remote and unexpected places.

Dust in My Pack is a new kind of travel book. It mixes travel narrative with practical travel tips and guidance covering places from Antarctica to Zimbabwe.

Curious for more - see my Author link and more about the book:

Hello Everyone! My name is Nataisha Hill. I've been a goodreads member for a while, but I never utilized these services until someone told me I was missing out. I'm still learning how to maneuver around the site and get everything updated. Hope you all enjoy your reads and stay blessed.

[Teresa]

Hi! I'm Teresa from Texas. I'm author of Family Prayer Made Easy. My favorite author of all time is Erma Bombeck for her simple, direct, humorous writing style. I miss her much! Some quotes that Erma shared which I love are:
If you can't make it better, you can laugh at it.
When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left, and could say, 'I used everything you gave me' and
Never go to a doctor whose office plants have died. Enjoy life!
All the Best,
Teresa

[Sarena]

Hello everyone😁,

My name is Sarena and I'm from Southern California.
I'm admittedly a bibliophile, and can never seem to tame my veracity and hunger for knowledge or simply a new experience. I can't say that I have an all time favorite author, because in being aware that knowledge is ever expounding and there are many authors I have not yet read; I'm aware that I may have a new favorite or host of favorites in the near future. One of my current favorite authors right now is Paulo Coelho. I love pretty much all genres of literature and will delve into anything I can get my hands on.

Very nice to meet all of you, and I hope you have a wonderful day/evening.😊

[Travis]

Welcome to the group new members!!!

[Christie]

Hello, I'm Christina from San Antonio, Texas. Before I joined some book clubs last year I probably would have said the Charles Todd was my favorite author. While I still enjoy reading his books and other mystery books I have come to appreciate other genres.

The books I've read recently that I really enjoyed were The Door, A Gentleman in Moscow, A Man Called Ove, Memoirs Of A Geshia, and now of course Behold the Dreamers.

[Emunah]

A wondrous greeting to all,
I'm glad to be alive and in my right mind. I am a author, artist, truthseeking Soulpreneur. Glad to meet you, hope to have meaning and edifying dialogue in this group.

[Sarah]

I'm Sarah, 27, and I'm from Oyster Bay. Some recently read books I really enjoyed were Eat, Pray, Love Painting Sage and Outliers: The Story of Success

[WyoLady 93]

My name is Cheryl and I live in Cody Wyoming. I was actually born and lived in Laramie Wyoming for at least half my life.

It would be so difficult for me to have just one or two authors. I enjoy reading all different genres, probably historical fiction and mystery being closer to the top. Patricia Cornwell, Michael Crichton, Nevada Barr, Isabel Allende, Elizabeth Kostova, and I could go on and on!

Hello, I am Danny from Hong Kong. Look forward to discover great books around the world. I normally enjoy digital books and also physical if it's on the favorite list to be stacked on the bookshelf.

[Bhumika]

Hi...This is Bhumika....fellow book lover. I just strongly believe that the world would be a much better place if people sat together, had tea and read books to connect

[Garance]

Hi everyone, I'm Garance from Paris. I love reading many kinds of books but my favorites always tend up to be dramas with an historical or cultural background: so I can enjoy the ride while learning new elements along the way. The last great one I read was Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichi. I heard her previous books are excellent too. I'm really looking forward exchanging book recommandations with you. I've always been curious about the Oprah book club and I hope it will open myself to new reading universes. I work in the movie industry in Paris by the way. I have also always been drawn to the book world and would like to open a bookstore one day. Very nice to meet you all.

[Elizabeth]

Hi everyone, my name is Elizabeth Moldovan and I live in Sydney, Australia. My favourite books are biographies and memoirs and I love "The Diary of Anne Frank". I am a lover of The Truth and seek to learn.
Remembering Anne Frank's courage, helped me overcome my deep fear of going public with my memoir which has been placed in prison, rehabs, na meetings libraries and also Harvard University Libraries. It is helping people who suffer to find Hope and Freedom.

[Elizabeth]

Hello everyone. My name is Elizabeth Ducie and I live in Devon, UK. I have been a writer for a while now, but a reader for more than sixty years. I read most types of fiction, although my main preference is for thrillers and fantasy. I also non-fiction occasionally - mostly when my book club back home pushes me towards it; and I discover some real treasures that way. I am looking forward to getting to know you and sharing reading experiences.

[Marcia]

Hello everyone! My name is Marcia and I live in South Carolina. I am a media assistant in a middle school library and have learned to love the stories in YA books. The more I read, the easier it is to get the students hooked. I call myself a book pusher, books are my drug of choice, and I am glad to know I'm not alone.

[Cassie]

Hey y'all...I'm Cassie Selleck and I'm a native Floridian...though my roots are mostly in the Carolinas. I'm a former public library outreach coordinator and now a storyteller and the author of two works of Southern fiction. I live in rural North Florida on the Suwannee River, which is a great place to read or write. I love Southern women writers like Harper Lee, Flannery O'Connor, Lee Smith, Jan Karon and Sue Monk Kidd. Got super lucky with my first novel The Pecan Man, which was optioned as a movie and in the production stages now. I love Oprah's Book Club and have almost never been disappointed by her selections. Most are on my shelf to this day.

My mother loved Erma Bombeck! I do, too, but she was one of Mom's very faves. I lost my mom a year ago, and she had that same wry humor and sense of the absurdity of everyday life. Thanks for reminding me of Erma Bombeck! Must go dig through Mom's books and find some copies. Blessings...

"The Pecan Man"

[Irene]

Hi Cassie I love Southern fiction, Fannie Flagg is my absolute favourite. (but I haven't read your books yet so that may change!) I seem to be as obsessed with Southern fiction as people in the USA are about Scotland. I'm of to look up "The Pecan Man" see if I would like it!! Look forward to more recommendations on southern fiction and getting to know you all a bit more.

Kind regards

Irene

[Cassie]

Hi, Irene...we Southerners DO have a rich Scottish and Irish history, especially in the area of the Smokey Mountains and Appalachians. My own ancestry includes a good portion of both. Fannie Flagg is another of my faves. I own all of her books in hardcover, which I only buy of the authors I truly love. Thanks for checking The Pecan Man out! Hope you enjoy. :-)
