Hi everyone! I'm Ally (@read.write.books on Instagram). I love reading, writing, and running. Some of my favorite book series are TMI, HP, the Divergent Series, and The Selection Series.

[Chase]

Hey everyone. I'm Chase (@cosmicreads on Instagram)! I'm a moderator... a shitty one at that. I swear I'll be more active from here on out. I just had a lot going on. Anyway, I love reading. I'm about to be a senior in college... terrifying... my major is English with a concentration in creative writing. I hope to be one of the authors y'all love. ;) It's hard to choose a favorite book but my favorite authors are Colleen Hoover and Jandy Nelson. I also adore Jenny Han, Rainbow Rowell, David Levithan, and Gayle Forman, and Christina Lauren. I love television as well! My favorite shows are Pretty Little Liars, Teen Wolf, American Horror Story, and How To Get Away With Murder.

I'm so excited to be a part of this because I've never been able to stick with book clubs so I'm so excited to finally do this!

[Annaliese]

Hey guys, I'm Annaliese (and I don't have an Instagram). Obviously I'm really bookish, but I also like to play soccer and run cross country for my high school. I really like to listen to music (I could go on about it for hours) and my favorite TV shows are Young and Hungry, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, and Shark Tank. I'm really into any type of book, so I've read everything from J.K. Rowling, to John Green, to Rainbow Rowell, to George Orwell, to Victor Hugo, to The Best 377 Colleges (a review done by Princeton...proving that I'm a major nerd).

I'm really looking forward to discussing books, and other hotbeds of literary drama (the oxford comma is the way to go, people)! I think that's enough rambling for one post...can't wait to meet you guys!

you do not need to buy the book, all you need to (or at least should) do is read it along with us and have fun!

[Sydney]

Hey everyone, I know this is unrelated but I just made a tumblr blog about books since I don't post much on my Instagram. If you have a tumblr please go follow! It would make me so happy and I will follow you if you have a book account!!!
