Chelsea Covey (chelseamayohmy) Hey!! I'm Chelsea from Texas. I love classics and am so excited to join a group that will discuss them with me. Why is reading such a dying hobby? It's so frustrating when I only have 2 real life reading friends and they only like one genre. I can't wait to hear everyone's opinions and views on stories!!

Coralie (calimus) | 1 comments Hi everybody! My name is Lily, and I am 23 years old. I am from France, but I currently live in Poland as this is where I have met my (American) husband. I love reading classics, but I am always looking for recommendations as well as people to share my thoughts with! Also, I have read a good number of French and Russian classics, so now I am working on the English and American ones. I hope this group will give me ideas of more books to read!

message 3490: by Rhedyn (new)

Rhedyn  (fernffoulkes) Bonjour! I do have a real name, but I'd prefer for you to call me by one of my nom de plumes, Rhedyn. I am extreme bibliophile, and enjoy writing as well. As my favorite book (A Tale of Two Cities)is a classic, and I believe all the classics are there for a reason, I would love to join and get some recommendations. I am a Texan, adore my chickens, and live under a rock with a huge library. I am currently a student, which means I may or may not have time to respond to things. :( My favorite genres are History, Historical Fiction, Biography, Non-fiction, and the Classics. :)

message 3500: by Mahala (new)

Mahala | 1 comments Hello, I'm Mahala from Tennessee! I'm a graphic designer with a semester left in college and I am trying to get back into reading for pleasure before I come fully into the working world. I'm hoping to aquire a more 'adult' pallet for books, or atleast fill in any gaps in my cultural literacy.

I prefer any sort of fiction really, but if something is classified as straight mystery or horror I'll have to spoil it for myself so I won't panic while reading. Hope I can make some friends here.
