message 51: by Jessica (new)

Jessica Lowe (jeslowe115) | 1 comments My name is Jessica and I am 43 from the USA. I'm in a couple other challenge groups and always am looking for a fun challenge.

I average 6-8 books a month and love to read romance (sports mainly), psychological and legal thrillers, and sports type biography.

Once I find a challenge to my liking, I will break the ice and join. Just let me get a feeling for them first.

I love sports romances as well (actually writing one right now haha)

I hope you'll enjoy our challenges :)

Ange Jones | 1 comments Hi! I’m Ange 24 Aussie.
Trying to get into posting on here instead of just Insta would love some bookish friends to keep me accountable! 😂

I’m into romance recently but I like most genres fantasy, thriller, dark romance and a bit of comedy!

Anastasia (anastasiaruff) | 432 comments Hi, I'm Anastasia and from Sydney, Australia. Thankyou for the invitation to join the group. I love mysteries amd I love challenges although feeling a bit overwhelmed this year with them this year. I think I am burnt out on big books and hoping to cut down on challenges this next year just so I can take my time and enjoy the books I want to. I hate reading a book just for a challenge and not enjoying it.

Richard (richoman25) | 95 comments Hi peeps. Richard's the name, reading's the game. From Albury, Australia.

I only like to read non-fiction, across many subjects. I just have a passion for learning new things & becoming a better human than my past self.

I've recently discovered I have Inattentive ADHD, Autism, & Hyperlexia. If you didn't know, hyperlexia is where children learn to read at a very young age (I was 2) & can affect how we read as adults. So with hyper-focus & a passion for learning, this definitely explains how I can read so much...

Shia (808bookdr) | 17 comments Aloha!

I'm Shia from Hawaii!

I LOVE reading challenges! They push me to read books from my physical library so I learn to stop hoarding lol. Also I love making new friends!

My favorite genres are romance and fantasy but I will step out of my comfort zone!
