My Grandpa who was born in 1939 read Resistance and liked it. :D
Go grandparents for reading new books!

I know! I was born in 1990, so I was feeling a little old for a while here...
Yay Grandpa!Ehehe. I usually feel old in my age group since I was a winter '99 baby, but now I feel a lot less old and more like a spry spring chicken. XD It's kind of nice to have a change of...well, not scenery, but, you know. Surroundings.
Amanda, I am too! I'm the oldest in my group of friends in my grade.
1996! But I relate a lot to the youngins because I can be a child at heart quite often. I also shared a room with my younger brother for a great portion if my life too, so I think that affected my inner childness a lot. :)
A'laura--ooh, cool! February 24 for me. :)
Amanda and A'laura me too! I'm usually the oldest in my group of friends! Well, until I lived in Massachusetts (I had quite a few friends older than me), but now I'm living in Puerto Rico and it is amazing.
*high fives Gabriela* Everyone was always older than us. Still are older than me. The majority of our friends here are either 18-31 or 10-14 there is just about no in between.
I know how that feels Amanda, I'm the same way. I hardly have any friends the same age as me. (I'm from the good ol' year of 1995) in fact for years my best friend was a girl 5 years younger than me. No in between ages, way older or way younger, I hear age gaps don't matter so much once you get older.
*high fives Amanda back* Yep. That's how it is.
@Gabriela You used to live in Massachusetts!? We could have met cause I live in Connecticut!!!
@Tamara were you at MassHope this year?
Yeah (That would have been so cool!), me and Amanda Beguerie (in the red shirt) met in MA a little over a year ago (that's when I moved there) and now I've moved again! Miss Jaye, I might just be your first fan in Puerto Rico!!!
I couldn't meet most of you then because I live in Wisconsin near Jaye! XD
Sometimes it sucks though because it gets so cold! But the summers are nice :D
Amanda, yes I was at MassHope this year!!! Were you? I go every year, it would be so cool to meet there!!! Although I just might freak out my siblings, them not knowing who you are and all. ;)
That's awesome! Yeah, I was there. I met Leah on Friday, which was the only day I went. If I go next year, I'll have to let you know! :D
That is so wierd! I met Leah in one of the talks too, so it's funny we didn't bump into each other. Where do you live? We should meet up next year definitely! :)
I live in Eastern Mass, at the bridge to Cape Cod. Which talk did you see each other at? Was it Friday? Because... I was with her for most of them on that day. O.o
A'laura, which town are you in in Wisconsin. Before moving to MA last year, I lived in Wisconsin for 4 years!!! I can't believe I found out about Jaye L. Knight AFTER I moved from WI. Ugh...
Gabriela, I live in Antigo. It's about an hour north-east of Wausau.
Amanda wrote: "I feel like the baby here..."Being the baby's fun! And I think there's a twelve year old on here somewhere.

I think that's funny, I'm ALWAYS the youngest in my groups. Y'all are so much fun! :D
Awww... Well, that's about *rushing over to look it up on the Maps app* 2 hours and 15 minutes from where I used to live in Sturgeon Bay, WI. Now from Puerto Rico to Antigo, WI...lets not even talk about that.
Amanda wrote: "I live in Eastern Mass, at the bridge to Cape Cod. Which talk did you see each other at? Was it Friday? Because... I was with her for most of them on that day. O.o"I always go over the bridge on my way to my cousins' house, so I've been like right near you so many times!
*jaw drops* the Bourne bridge or Sagamore?
Jaye wrote: "And here I am, an 80s baby. XD 1988 to be exact."When's your birthday? >:D I'm sure it'd be a good thing for us fans to know, if you don't mind telling us...
@Amanda. Going back to MassHope, I don't remember which talk it was, but it was one of the Ludys. I think it might have been on Saturday though,. but I'm not sure. We just sat together for one of the talks. :)
Where do you love Firefly? Are you close?
*watches everybody line up by age**quietly slips over near Jaye*
All these people who've been near each other and didn't know it. SADNESS.@Sarah--most of my friends have been older or younger, too.
@Resterwen--haha...
Amanda wrote: "*jaw drops* the Bourne bridge or Sagamore?"Mostly the Sagamore, but we've gone over the Bourne, I think, as well, when the Sagemore was under construction.
Tamara wrote: "Where do you love Firefly? Are you close?"In Massachusetts.
Actually - when my best friend went to summer camp she became friends with a girl whose older sister knows your family.
Wait, really? Can you say who? And that's cool, we live so close! :)
You shoild come to MassHope too Firefly! :)
Whoa, Firefly. I live literally a mile from the Sagamore.
I mean technically, Ilyon was written for '97s and older...
I'm such a rebel then, if it's written for '97's and older.
That was my point: Not all but many of us are way younger then the age range of the Ilyon books. XD
I usually read books that are for the "more mature" audience because I find them more interesting and I relate to the teenage characters better because I am a teenager XD
GUYS. THIS IS CRAZY.I have the most comments out of everybody in the group. Even more than Jaye. And I joined 10 months after this group started. March of this year, I think...
Do I talk too much?! I promise I talk nowhere near this much in real life.
And I have the most comments over on the Jorum. I'm number 4 here. I guess it's 'cause there isn't a character chatroom over here.
Character chat room? Dude.I've literally been on there 10 times MAX. I haven't got time for another obsession. You see me over in Rizkaland. (Number one over there too...)
That's okay. We understand each other.
