Kevin Dia daoibh muintir na Goodreads! Cén chaoi a bhfuil sibh? Is mise Caoimhín. Is Éireannach mé agus cosúil le gach duine ar an suíomh seo, taím gafa le leitheoireacht!

Hello all! My name is Kevin and I am from Limerick, Ireland. I am a twenty year old student of English and Irish literature who conveniently also has a strong addiction to reading. I like to think of this site as the AA for those that carry the book-worm monkey on their back, so I look forward to seeing you all at our book discussion sessions!

Trelawn Hi Kevin and welcome, this group is more likely to feed your addiction to books than temper it. I envy your fluency with Irish, I had a decent level but haven't used it regularly in years.


message 3: by Paul (new)

Paul Welcome Kevin. We're more enablers for addiction ☺Definitely a good spot here though do jump right in to the book chats and let us know what you're interested in.

Barbara (bdegar) | 4626 comments Welcome. As Paul said, we are definitely enablers. Not only do we turn people on to various titles, but we cheer when others buy books. Emma's right about increasing TBR piles.

Kevin Maybe a disclaimer so you aren't sued for destroying peoples' lives :) . Talking about TBR piles, I've spent the summer working for a bookshop and I still haven't got around the scanning them all in. No wonder the owners love me when I'm putting all my wages straight back into the place!

Kevin Being paid in books... If only! Though I can't imagine the local subway taking too kindly to a true crime novel in exchange for a footlong turkey and ham :)


message 7: by Kevin (new)

Kevin I think if any of us ever open a restaurant, payment by books should be allowed :)

Susan | 4707 comments Hi Kevin. Glad to have you join us. Seraphina is from Limerick too. I bet she's glad to have company.


message 12: by Kevin (new)

Kevin Trust me Susan, you need far more than company to survive in some parts of Limerick! :)

Welcome Kevin from the other group co-moderator! Sorry for not welcoming you sooner, but you did arrive when I was out being sick!. I can already tell you're going to make many useful contributions to the group.


message 14: by Kevin (new)

Kevin Thanks Sara. I will try to keep my contributions useful at least 50% of the time, but no promises! ;)

At 50% useful comments you will show us up ;)
