Brittny | 3 comments It's so hard to find good books, need some friends on here to share with. I read a TON, some of my fave books are:
Ten tiny breaths
My favourite mistake
The edge of never
Closer to you
The sea of tranquility
Taking chances
Crash/clash/crush
Beautiful disaster

And the list goes on!

If your reading interest sounds similar to mine...let me know. I am addicted to reading and would love to share recommendations with someone :)

Arpit Goel | 1 comments Hey do you like crime/mystery thriller? The names you mentioned are unknown to me, so just asking.


message 3: by Brittny (new)

Brittny | 3 comments No, not really!


message 4: by Jade (new)

Jade (jadeherrera) do you read historical fiction?


message 5: by Brandy (new)

Brandy I have Ten Tiny Breaths, Edge of Never and Beautiful Disaster all on my to read list but I haven't gotten to them yet.
It appears you like fiction, but how about Urban Fantasy?


message 6: by Brittny (new)

Brittny | 3 comments What do you mean by urban fantasy? Have any examples? I tell people I like to read for entertainment only - not to have to think too much while I'm reading! I realize this makes me sound a little hollow but I assure you I graduated college with a 4.18 GPA so I'm not too shallow! Haha
I like a romance novel but I'm not into the erotica genres much. I also have enjoyed a few bad boy books. One of my fave books was Passion by Louise Bagshawe which is a romantic suspense.

Amanda M. Lyons (amandamlyons) Not sure if I'd be a very good fit for a book buddy or not (I read mostly horror but also other genres like fantasy). Here's a list of some of my favorite romance titles:
Morning Song
Silent Heart
Under a Twisted Moon
The Devil Earl
The Last Rogue
The Silver Wolf
Devoted
Beguiled
Fool's Paradise
Walk Into The Night
I also highly recommend Jennifer Weiner if you haven't already read her books. She has some real strength in storytelling. These are some of my favorites from her:Good in Bed
In Her Shoes
Goodnight Nobody

Brandy Urban Fantasy Examples: Kim Harrison the Hollows Series
Darynda Jones Charlie Davidson Series, Karen Marie Moning Fever Series. Just books that have Creatures I guess would be the best way to put it (Ware wolves, Vampires, Elves, Pixies, Witches.)
I also enjoy a good "chick" book.
I also just read for entertainment, I am doing it to relax not to further my education.

Amanda M. Lyons (amandamlyons) Kim Harrison's book are excellent! I've not tried Karen Marie Moning.

I read historical fiction and write it! I read all sorts of other genres, as well. If you want a good historical fiction story with romance read Julie Klassen's books.

I would gladly be your book buddy. It sounds like we have similiar taste in books and like you I read a lot. I have read all of the books on your list, but if you are looking for any other recommendations, let me know.

message 16: by Heather (new)

Heather (haswilliams) Great idea! Anyone looking.g for a book buddy, let me know. I read whenever I can. Mostly YA but I'm game for anything good! I also like biographies, fiction such as Jodi Picoult, Stephen king, Wally Lamb, sci fi/fantasy (depending in the book), and much more. I'm also a 2nd grade teacher so I'm even up for sharing good reads for that age or instructional purposes.

If you'd like to request a specific book you'd like to read, look for someone to read with you, or join in on a buddy read that someone else suggests you can do so there.
