Hallie (wiinchesterlogic) | 5 comments Hi guys! I thought maybe that we could start a little get to know each other discussion, as this is a new group. What do you think?

Iris Emma (irisemmareads) | 5 comments Mod
Sounds like a good idea!
My name is Iris, I am 17 years old, I live in the Netherlands. My hobbies include reading (surprise surprise), ballet, playing the violin and many more things. I also love watching TV shows (the Vampire Diaries is my all time favorite). I like drawing a lot too. My favorite books include Divergent series, Throne of Glass series (Celaena is bæ) and the Shatter Me series.
Uhh, what else is there to say?
Oh, my bookstagram is @iris.and.anna.read :)
Now I am curious what you guys have to tell!
xo, Iris

Hallie (wiinchesterlogic) | 5 comments Hi Iris, I love your name! My name is Hallie, and first of all, I LOVE Dylan O'Brien, my obsession started with him as Stiles on Teen Wolf, however Daniel Sharman (Isaac Lahey) will always be the most adorable human being that will ever grace my universe. Anybody else here a fangirl/boy? I am, die hard. My fandoms are supernatural, teen wolf, The Infernal Devices and The Mortal Instruments, Harry Potter and of course Zootopia (because I watched the movie a few days ago and now I cant get over it, bless you Disney). I also really love the TV shows friends and the big bang theory. At the moment I'm working on writing my own novel, after the authors Gena Showalter and Jenna Moreci inspired me! I love chocolate, puppies, icecream, tumblr, pinterest, books, the internet and did I mention Isaac Lahey?
Well, anyways, I feel like I've written too much, so that's me! I hope none of you find me too weird, because believe me, I am!

Tomàs (castpe) | 3 comments Now it's my turn.
Hello to everybody. My name is Tomas and it's a pleasure to be in the group. I'm 19 years old, from Barcelona, Spain. Currently I'm studying modern languages and literatures (that's why you're going to find a lot of german literature on my profile). I love reading anything in general, even though my favourite genre is mystery. I'm also a huge fan of Dylan O'Brien (he's the best!!) and Teen Wolf, Friends, OUAT, Grey's Anatomy and Sense8. I love reading fanfics (M/M is my kryptonite) and listening to pop music.
My favourite author is Spanish, but I recommend her to all of you (Laura Gallego) and my favourite book, obviously, is by her (La emperatriz de los etéreos). BUT I couldn't live without the Mortal Instruments (Alec ♥♥♥). And that's everything more or less.
Nice to meet you all ^^

Oh! And I love the idea that everyone is from different places (lots of different cultures). ^^

message 23: by Leila (new)

Leila | 1 comments Hi everyone,
I'm Leila. I'm from the Netherlands and I am 17 years old. Iris is one of my friends and I go to the same school as her. She is the only one of my friends that likes to read books, so she is the only person I can fangirl with about books. I'm in desperate need of some more book friends! There's not really anything special about me to tell you guys. But I read some of you like shadowhunters (I like the books way more than the tv series), teen wolf, sense 8, the throne of glass series and I like all of those too :). Another book series I love is red queen, oh my god, so good!
I'll leave it at this for now, seeing I've already written a paragraph, but I look forward to talking about books with you guys!

message 25: by Chloe (new)

Chloe Rhiannon Saunders (chloerhiannonx) | 1 comments Hiiii! I'm Chloe, 21 years old and from Wales, UK.
I've been a FanFic writer for 6 years and an avid YA book reader for 4 and a half years, but a book lover for my entire life! The Hunger Games was my gateway into YA so will always hold a special place in my heart, but my biggest loves include the Shadowhunter chronicles (here to cry over Simon), The Raven Cycle (here to cry over Gansey), and most John Green books (just crying all round!)!
I love food, and animals, and my reading companion is a very grumpy cat called Gizzy (named after Gizmo from The Gremlins)
I'm also a huge Marvel nerd, in love with Agents of Shield and Agent Carter and all MCU movies! I don't watch a lot of TV shows but I do love Shadowhunters and Game of Thrones!
My book goal of the year is 52 (one a week) and so far I'm doing awesome on that, hoping this group can help me keep going :D

message 28: by Serena (new)

Serena (serenatx) Hello!
My name is Serena, I am 20 years old and live in the UK. Ive been an avid reader all my life and found myself enjoying mostly YA books until I started university in September of 2014 where I stopped reading for a year and a half!! Ive just fallen back in love again with reading and have been enjoying lots of psychological thrillers and horrors (Stephen King specifically). My favourite book is Jane Eyre (I have 12 different editions....) and I will give pretty much any book a go. Oh also I love watching tv shows and watch way too many.

Emily | 1 comments Hi!
My name is Emily and I hope I've come to the right place because I haven't been on this website long and I'm a little shy haha.

Anyway, I'm 18 years old and I'm an A Level student in the UK, I'm currently studying Politics, History and English and I am going to do a degree in Politics starting in September. Other hobbies include reading, wasting hours of my life on YouTube, and eating pizza.

I'm reading a lot of Romantic and Victorian literature at the moment for my English course, but I enjoy pretty much anything as long as it has an interesting plot and is well written!
