Introductions
Hi Bridgett! Great idea for a group :) I'm Kathy and I am also clearly a book nerd. I run my blog and am currently engulfed in way to many review books to even consider putting books down any time soon. Ummm... I'm 25 and live in Massachusetts and I'm also a huge sports fan too!
Hi, I definitely belong in this group. I read around 200 books a year and I have a family of 10 kids and a husband to take care of. So when do I read? All the time and sometimes my kids complain, but then I got them reading and we have some of the best discussions about all the great books we read.
Thanks for the invitation! I live in N.C. I'm retired, and reading and reviewing have become my life! I buy too many, want even more, and would rather read than just about anything. Right now I'm in Colorado (freezing) helping take care of my 6 mo old grandbaby who has been diagnosed with a serious illness. I'll be here till Christmas, and have just started to have time to read again!! Lokking forward to the discussiona.......By the way, Hi to Kathy and Briidgett! Pat
Hi, I'm 36 and live in Pennsylvania. I work nights in a group home. They sleep so I'm able to read a lot. I usually read a book a night (unless I'm really tired) I love to read and buy books. I have so many favorites and so many to read. I don't think I'll ever catch up! I have my own little library and love it! My girls call me a "book nerd",but I don't care..
Hey everyone :) I'm Danielle, I live in NYC. Not much else about me other than I try to get reading done when I can, evne if it means sneaking out to Starbucks and reading there.Thanks for the invite to this group

Hi there! My name is Julie & I live in Vancouver, WA. I love to read (obviously), have way too many books on my shelves, and cannot seem to stop adding more. I'm addicted to series books, but try not to have too many going at one time. Have two boys & am about to become a first-time Grandma next Spring. Hope all is well with everyone & happy holidays!
Hello I am Patrice.it is great to meet other book lovers. I have read 69 books and still going strong. I can be seen at the loan at at least twice a month.
Hello! My name is Suzanne. This is a great idea for a group. I love books. Especially the young adult genre but I will read anything honestly. Look forward to reading about the other members and their book recommendations.

Hi, I am Jennie. I love to read. I read a little bit of everything, but mostly YA stuff. I am a children's librarian in Wisconsin, so I get to spend all day hanging out with and talking about books! (Well, kinda. I'll just pretend it's all fun and games!)
Hi, my name is Ashley. I will read any kind of book, but my taste is mainly YA. I look forward to participating in this group, meeting all of you and looking for new books to read.
Welcome to the group Lizz and Ashley! Happy New Year!
Happy New Year everyone! Here's to a wonderful year, full of health, fortune, and of course, reading! :)

Happy New Years everyone! Hope everyone had a nice one!
Hey everyone! My name is Amber and I am a wife and stay at home mom to 2 wonderful kiddos. I am addicted to books and yarn (I also love to knit) so i have hordes of both and not ashamed of it at all :) I live in a small town in farm country Ohio so enjoy being outside as well! But you will never catch me without at least a book with me at all times ;)
Hi Amber....I was wondering why your picture looked familiar. I think you just joined Seasonal Reading Challenge too. :)
Hi everyone, my name is Josie, I'm known to devour ungodly amounts of books and prefer to live 1000 lives rather than just the one real one. I am a twenty-something working in the UK and a long commute means I get to read a lot. Which makes me happy unlike my poor fellow commuters. I generally like any sort of book as long as the plot and writing is gripping, but generally look towards children/YA/fantasy genre. Anyway, that's me hope you're all nice and I get to know lots of new reading buddies :)
I am so excited that our group is growing! Please take some time to check out the different discussions. There are a few different buddy reads going on now. And the polls for February's BOM are up as well.Happy reading everyone!
I'm a newbie! Hi everyone! I enjoy talking books and I read mainly YA/dystopian/apocalypse books.

Hi everyone, my name is Emma and have only just worked out this whole Goodreads business :). Prior to getting my kindle for Christmas, I didn't even known it existed, boy have I been missing our :). I am very excited to join in some of the read a longs and discussions with you all.
Hi everyone! My name is Jordan and I love buying and reading books!! I am also the mother of 2 beautiful daughters aged 3 and 8 months. I will read anything and everything but I mostly stick to fiction! My favorites are fantasy( witches, vampires etc.) but like I said I will read anything. Thanks for adding me!!
Hello, I'm Halli :) I've been looking for some groups to waste my time on when I'm not reading, so here I am!Obviously, I love reading with a passion. I'm a quick reader, and will spend a whole day on a book if I need to ;) I'll read anything I get my hands on, and wish I lived in a bookstore.
I recently found out that owning books make you the richest person in the world, because seriously, books are portals to other worlds. Besides reading, I like drawing as much as reading, I'm a new DW fan, and I try to write my own stories as well.
Cheers!
Hey :) I'm new in this group and well ... I'm an addict too ^^ reading all the time, whenever and whereever I can! :) I'm 24 years old, coming from Luxembourg, but studying in Bremen (North of Germany) at the moment! I finished my Bachelor in Social Work and will start my Master studies in October! Means half a year free of studies and lots of time for my books! xD

Hi, I'm Diane, 29 years old... Lately I've been realizing that life has been getting in the way of my reading..... I'm always reading half books here and there too, putting them down and picking up another, so I have a gazillion books unread.. I think being in a group (this one looks like it fits me best) will help me read full books one at a time....

My name is Katrina and my house is filled with books. For real, for real...no exaggeration. I have more books than clothes. I have a dream of quiting my day job and moving to Cali to follow my dream of becoming a big time fashion desinger. I will sell EVERYTHING I own...except my books. (No that's crazy talk) I wouldn't dare go THAT far.

My name is Bridgett, and I have a reading problem. I mean, My name is Bridgett and I buy too many books....I mean....My name is Bridgett and I love to read, and I will buy as many books as my heart desires...and read them all. Because I am a book hoarder and proud of it :) (though, I can happily say I do not belong on the tv show;) )
