March 2nd is “Read Across America Day” Since our members are from all over the world, we're calling it “Read Across the World Day”!! We've opened a thread for this for a few years now and you don't have to answer only on March 2nd, you can do it anytime this month. Give us any fun facts about you and your reading!!

What are you currently reading?
Do you read an e-book or prefer an actual book?

I am from Oklahoma, USA!!
I am starting next.
I love ebooks because I can read anywhere with out having to carry the book around!!
I love to read at home in bed
I buy my books on amazon mostly but there is a local book store I buy books from that I loved as ebooks.
I love all genres except murder mystery or suspense....if it has love I am there!!
My favorite authors are Elle Casey , Jennifer L. Armentrout, Colleen Hoover and seriously like a 100 more I feel like I add new ones to my list weekly!!
I don't think I have an all time favorite ....but I do have a feeler book....so whenever I meet people in real life who say they love to read. I have them read ...to see if we are book compatible. This book has all the elements that I love in a book! If they love the book then I can recommend more if they don't then I know we prefer different writing style. Haha, actually writing that out makes me sound crazy and a little like a book snob...

Barb and Deanne! I loved reading your all your reading stuff!!!!

I'm from the California coast in a suburb by San Francisco.
I'm currently reading &
I totally prefer e-book, because I can have thousands of books available to me at anytime!!
I always read in the morning in bed. I'll wake up earlier so I can spend some time reading. At night I read on the couch.
I get my books on Amazon, love Kindle Unlimited.
My favorite genres are YA Contemporary Romance, M/M Romance and NA Romance...I can read mysteries and fantasies too, but I add the romance!!
So many broken down by genre. My YA Favorites are Stephanie Perkins, Katie McGarry, Miranda Kenneally My M/M favorites are N.R. Walker, Lane Hayes, Riley Hart and my NA favorites are Colleen Hoover, Amy Harmon, Kim Holden but seriously I could add so many more!!
My all time favorite book is
I read around 130 books a year.
A fun fact is that even though I'm always reading a book, I'm also always listening to an audio book. I have to have an audio book going to listen to in the car, while exercising or cleaning the house. Books make all of that more fun!!

Love reading everyone's comments!

I am from rural Ohio in the U.S.
I am currently reading
I prefer E-Books, but for some reason I still buy actual books. I have a kindle fire and a regular kindle that I use for outdoor reading.
I set my alarm for 30 minutes before I have to get out of bed, so I can read in bed before I get up! I usually read in bed or on my couch, but I love reading outdoors. Especially the beach on vacation!
I typically purchase my books from Amazon, Kindle Unlimited, NetGalley, bookoutlet.com, and the library (e-library for e-books).
My favorite books are romance (of course), and I think I can read anything as long as it has an element of romance...I don't like Horror, I'm a big chicken.
A few of my Favorite authors: Krista & Becca Ritchie, Kristen Ashley, Abbi Glines, Jennifer Armentrout, and Colleen Hoover.
Favorite book: (it was hard to choose)
I read about 120-130 books per year.
Fun reading fact: When we go to the beach (or any vacation), I always pack like 7 physical books, both my kindles, and of course my phone. I wouldn't want to be caught without options :)
