Gopal!!!!! Get over to the hotseat, it's getting cold.
Hi, I am from Hong Kong. I read English fiction sporadically before but it become habit recently. Chinese is my first language. I think I understand most of the content if the book is not too difficult. I am now reading the Millennium trilogy (The girl with dragon tatoo). Glad to hear any recommendation of good books for non-english speaker like i am. Thank you.Vincent Johnathan Wan
Welcome Vincent ! I admire you for not only learning a second language but also reading books in a second Language! Have you read any Stephen King books? I liked "Mr. Mercedes " I also just finished 11-23-1963 - a Time travel book about what would have happened if President Kennedy had not been assassinated. I am now reading "under The Dome" which has been made into a TV series.
Thanks all. I will try to read books from Stephen King. I have heard this famous author for long time but haven't tried before because I thought the English he used is difficult to me. I take "Mr. Mercedes" is good. I will try. Using a kindle with Chinese dictionary, I am on the third book of the Millennium. I am now a bit more confidence to read books other those for six-grader or teens.
Awesome Vincent! Stephen King is great and unique. I heard that "Mr Mercedes" is a great book and i will read it on the future. Now i m reading "22-11-63" and i m really enjoying it, it s an amazing book. I also read "Firestarter" and "the Long Walk", both good, but the "Long walk" is psychological and special, that s all i can say :) Aw yeah, stay away from "Dreamcatcher", not that bad but really some parts are really disturbing, at least don t start with it.
Duma Key is also a very good Stephen King book as well as Doctor Sleep. Christine and Pet Semetary are excellent too.
Yes Paula i heard that "Duma Key" is great. About "Doctor Sleep" is it connected to "Shining"? I heard that but i m not sure.
Yes Aymen, Doctor Sleep is about the young boy from the Shining who is now in his 30's and has all kinds of problems.
Thanks Paula i ll make sure to start with "the Shining".

Welcome, welcome, welcome!!! There were 50 new entries since I have been able to log in here! I have been having to use my tablet, and it will not let me see the most recent comments, and there is no way I can go through thousands of comments sitting at my desk at work! Sigh. I miss when I could log into GR on my work computer. I am so happy to have all of you with us! My name is Autumn and I try to help out whenever I can. If I can ever be of any help to you, please let me know!
Be sure to check out our Book Pals! It is a great way to get to know other members of the group one on one and take down that TBR list with a partner.
Like I said before, I am so happy to have you with us. Look around, jump right in, and above all HAVE FUN!!!

Welcome, Deldon! Lots of friendly folks here. You'll grow your to-be-read list for sure!
I got to say this! I LOVE the energy we get in here. The moderators are definitely enthusiastic, helpful, and fun, not to mention Goofy, OCD (per Brenda), and certifiable! :P Some members are really great with following your reviews, recommending books and just love to get to know you! All you got to do is say "Hi, I'm so-and-so, I'm a new member" and bam, instant book friends! Be careful of the stalkers though, (who me?!?). :P Welcome!

Hello Group Members,Thanks for accepting me into the group. I live in Canberra, Australia. I love books mostly thrillers and mystery. I have published 2 non-fiction books, indexes for International Bonsai magazines and when I retired I published my first novel Inheritance. I write to keep the grey cells working and I enjoy writing very much.
