Hi! :) I'm Anastasia, I'm 17 (almost 18, no hurry to grow up but being born in December can be tedious D:) and I'm from North-Italy too (!). I bumped into this group thanks to..The Perks of Being a Bookworm. :P I'm so glad that we can continue to talk about books together, I enjoyed very much those reading groups made in the last months.

Welcome Anastasia - north Italy where? - and Stella.
Wow, someone from Iran! You have to forgive my prejudices, but I thought that for women it was not so easy to go in internet and read literature. But I have to admit that all my informations come from Reading Lolita in Tehran

[Achitophel]

Thanks , and I should say my socity is not patriarchal nor matriarchal !! Actually in my country women are free to do many things that men do too !
Many people misunderstood about my country and make a horrible and fake picture that will scare others ! But its not so.
Don't be sorry its okay my friend :)

Hello Scott & Welcome!

[Betty C.]

Hi -- I see a lot of familiar faces here from The Book Vipers, so I thought I would join here too. I may have to divide my reading allegiances but I like your choices, so plan to read at least some of the books.

I'm originally from Olympia, Washington and live in Rodez, France.

[Scott]

Jenny...we maintain seperate bookshelves...he keeps reading Of Mice and Men.

[Jenny]

Hi Betty, what brought you to France? Love? Work? Or the fact that nobody makes a crème brûlée quite like the French do? ;)
