Ann (annrumsey) | 16927 comments Hailey, welcome to the group! I also love audio books, that format is about 80% of the books I read - plus regular podcast listening.
A favorite narrator and a good book are a special treat.

&#x1f436;Kaylee✨ | 2 comments Hi! (Is it okay that I write here? Do people still write on here?) anyway I’m just an average student trying to survive. Books the only thing keeping me afloat as I study courses like criminology (my favorite) and sociology alike. <3 huge animal lover and book nerd, plus if you haven’t guessed it dark romance lover. Oh! And I’m obsessed with Hamilton!


message 163: by Ann (new)

Ann (annrumsey) | 16927 comments LOL, fine to write here dat_kayleegirl! Hope the books you read do indeed help you stay afloat as you manage your coursework.

message 168: by Tanya (new)

Tanya (hellotanyalyn) Aloha!

I just got the biggest laugh reading your intro page! "Unrepentant Out Of Order Reader!" I'm one of those! Currently for me, that's ANY Lisa Gardner book I can get my hands on, order be damned! haha
Excited to be here!

message 171: by Jayne (new)

Jayne | 1 comments Hi all. I’m keen on reading thrillers. Any recommendations will be gladly received.


message 172: by Ann (new)

Ann (annrumsey) | 16927 comments Welcome to the group Jayne! Great places to find recommendations are the JF NR threads for in progress ‘Now reading’ or ‘Just finished’ books. The monthly lists posts and group read bookshelf will also hold potential thriller recommendations. Happy reading!


message 173: by Dilara (new)

Dilara Kocak Hey!
my name is Dilara, I live in Germany and studied psycholinguistics, which might explain why I’m especially drawn to (psycho)thrillers! 😄
I also enjoy reading nonfiction and books about art, and every now and then I love a good book with a humorous touch. I’m curious about all kinds of genres—well, maybe except romance.
Feel free to send me a friend request – I’d love to connect and exchange recommendations:)
Looking forward to chatting with you all!


message 174: by Ann (new)

Ann (annrumsey) | 16927 comments Welcome Dilara! We are happy to have you join us. We can mutually benefit from seeing what we are reading!


message 175: by Natali (new)

Natali Clark | 2 comments I live in Madrid with my cousin, Naomi. We do everything together; even share the same bed !!!


message 176: by Jade (new)

Jade | 2 comments Hi, I live alone, in a box room, in the UK and I'm a friend of Natali and Naomi.


message 177: by Dottie (new)

Dottie | 1 comments I was sent an invitation to join, so...

I'm Dottie. If you read my profile, you'll probably believe I'm dotty. I'm not dotty, I'm Dottie. I live in Scotland. I was born in England and count myself as British.

I might be a little crazy in trying to reduce my carbon-footprint to its minimum but, I'm not dotty. I'm Dottie!

I have a clothes recycling effort - it makes mums and their little-ones happy, happy, happy. And... I like sleeping in the garden. I shower in the garden too: with rain water. The health nutters drive to the beach, the lake, the river, every morning and take a swim - it's so healthy for them. Leave the car in the garage: take a cold shower; better still, shower in the garden in rain water. That makes so much sense. You see, I'm not dotty. I'm Dottie.

Friend me. :)) I'm not dotty.


message 178: by Ann (new)

Ann (annrumsey) | 16927 comments Welcome Natali and Jade it is a good thing to have friends to talk about and share books.
Welcome Dottie, it’s nice you can make Mum’s and little ones happy. You must have a very nice backyard.
We are happy to have you all join us!


message 179: by Ada (new)

Ada | 4 comments The family left the U.K. last year, I now live in Barcelona, with my parents. As yet, I've not found the courage to write a review. Maybe chatting about books is a good start. I'm thankful for the opportunity to join your group and thankful I was tipped the wink about Goodreads.

Kelly | 1 comments Thanks Natalie,

Hi, all. I'm British and living in London. Does anyone want to be my friend?

message 184: by Poppy (new)

Poppy | 1 comments Hello, I'm Poppy.
I work in hospitality: a plush establishment, patronised by more gentle, conservative folk.


message 185: by Zoe (new)

Zoe | 1 comments Hello. Everyone I know calls me, 'Zo'. I'm from a big family, my siblings are all girls. We are a family of amatuer academics. My parents who met at university and then walked out, and my parents are incredibly wise, many years ago called university (universities), 'An institution of ideological fruit cakes.' I'm here to learn from what I read. Thrilling reads are on my menu, not outlandish thrillers. Recs anyone?
Ohh, yeah. Friends would be good!


message 186: by Abbi (new)

Abbi | 1 comments Hi all. Natalie suggested I join up. I'm always happy to make friends and swap recs.


message 187: by Mandy (new)

Mandy | 1 comments Hello all,
I'm a uni student from Britain. I've never been overseas and I'm wanting to read about life at all points of the compass. I read about the world we live in because I can't afford to travel. I focus my reading on real-world fiction and non-fiction; recommendations are welcome - as are friends.


message 188: by Erin (new)

Erin | 1 comments Hi,
I'm a single girl from West England and struggling to make ends meet.
I'm a signed up member of the local library and I'm an ebook fan (it's a cost thing) and have the Kindle app on my laptop.
The library has a book group. I thought of joining, but coffee and a bun costs an arm and a leg: I'll stay home.

Friends and recommendations would be good.

Gisela | 1 comments Good-day, I'm from Down-Under.

Natalie invited me. I don't do fantasy and other world genres. I'd appreciate non-fiction/fiction recs. Non-fiction can be thrilling: Red Dusk and the Morrow.


message 190: by Bridge (new)

Bridge | 1 comments Hi, I'm Bridge. I'm 26. I'm shy. I'm single and aiming to stay that way for a good few years yet. I'm working and other than reading and work, I have a house with a garden (left me by my grandmother) that keeps me fit.

I love reading good real life fiction.


message 191: by Kori (new)

Kori | 1 comments Just a girl. Struggling to stay in the black and now reading to learn and not to escape.

message 193: by Meg (new)

Meg | 1 comments Hello, I'm Meg and I live in Greater Manchester. I'm in study, have a room in a house and enjoy my books. I'm being pulled toward the realm of realistic fiction, memoirs and geo-political thrillers.


message 194: by Emma (new)

Emma | 1 comments Hi, I'm Emma or M.
I'm not too keen on the world we are living in. Books are my escape. I yearn for the world we had between the two wars.


message 195: by Megan (new)

Megan | 2 comments Hi all! I’m Megan, and I work as a library assistant (my dream job haha.) I read a lot in my spare time, and thrillers and mysteries are my go to! I’d love to make more friends on here, so feel free to add me if you’d like 💜


message 196: by Ann (new)

Ann (annrumsey) | 16927 comments Welcome Meg, Emma and Megan!


message 197: by Heidi (new)

Heidi | 1 comments Hi to everyone,

I'm from the UK and I've recently arrived in the US of A (Boston: of Boston Globe fame). Daddy works for a bank. I had a choice of staying, but we were living in London (a very unsafe city for women) and I like the idea of a policed city. I'm a newcomer to Goodreads. I'd love some recommendations. I don't do Sci-Fi, Fantasy or Horror.
