Introductions

[Sam]

hi everyone, my name is Sam and I use she/her pronouns. I'm queer, a dog mom, and a witch. I am a huge reader but have struggled keeping up with it for a few years due to depression. I thought joining a book club where I'll have folks to chat with might help.

I like most genres but my favorite are YA, mystery, horror, and fantasy. I also enjoy manga and poetry. I am looking forward to what is chosen for August reading :)

Hey, we're glad to have you! I definitely relate to the depression struggle... it kept me from reading for years as well. This is a very low pressure group, so you don't have to worry about deadlines or anything. We're just happy to provide a space for those who are interested! I hope you find some comfort here, and we're excited to have you join the conversation :)

[Kate]

Hi, I’m Kate ✌🏻

I’m a 32 year old queer parent who uses she/they pronouns.

I’m a maritimer—I live in PEI, Canada with my wife and 2 young children and dog. And I’m a brewer!

I don’t have much time to sit so I listen to a lot of audiobooks but do like to have a physical book on the go. I can just listen to about 8 audiobooks in the time I can read one physical book. I almost exclusively read books about women, POC & queers. Literary fiction—leaning into speculative fiction and magical realism is generally my thing. Really love character driven stories.

Anyways, happy to talk books with everybody!

[Apollo]

Hello Sam! Hello Kate!

We are happy to have you join us, and happy to share books!

[Iselin📖]

Hi everyone! I just found this group, and are very new to goodreads!:)
My name is Iselin, I go by she/her, are 21 y/o, and live in Norway. I am studying business law and economic, and will study a masters degree in marketing next fall.
Other than that I love reading, and my favourite books are those with the typical romance-stories. I love books about teenage-romance and high-school drama. Not a fan of fiction, unless it is Hunger Games or Divirgent! :D I would love to read more queer books, and would love some recommendations if you have! As a lesbian myself I am a huge fan of books with queer characters.
Love- Iselin

[Giuls]

Hi everyone!
My name is Giulia, I'm 20, I go by she/her, and I’m from Italy. It's my first time joining a group here on Goodreads, so I don’t really know what to say. I love classics and fantasy books, though I don't disdain other genres. I'm looking forward to talking with everyone! I would love to hear your recommendations!

[al]

hi, my name's al and my pronouns are she/they :) i’m currently a sophomore in college majoring in biochemistry and minoring in women's studies. i used to be a huge reader when i was younger, and i’m trying to ease back into it. i tend to drift towards fantasy when i read, so i’d say that's probably my favorite genre :)

[Clayton]

Hi Everyone! My name is Clayton and I live off-grid in a remot-ish mountain valley of Washington state (USA). I love being surrounded by rivers, mountains and forest. Not the typical lifestyle for an older gay guy (shrug).

I just discovered this group and was pulled in by it's tag line--so clever and welcoming! I am super excited to have an outlet for my interest in books. None of the chipmunks around here even read [grin]! Cheers!
