But, it's fun and rewarding as well. You will find vast amounts of books that you will want to read, be prepared for a huge to-read list.

Yes, Goodreads is dangerous, as the size of my to-read shelf shows, and it does take time away from reading, but I've met so many wonderful people and read so many excellent books I'd never have found otherwise. So worth it! And, I particularly love this group and its members!

[[deleted user]]

Yes, I've discovered all sorts of new stuff by this site! The people here are wonderful, it's nice to get on and commiserate other book fanatics.

[[deleted user]]

Hi Dominique, and everyone else too!

Goodreads is more than dangerous! When I started last year I had a few hundred things on TBR... now that number has quadrupled! and the number of books at home has quadrupled too.

[Noems]

Hi, I'm Noemie. I'm francophone, so sorry if my english is not really good! My comfort reads are the Harry Potter books or Pride and Prejudice. I know these books by heart now, that's what I love.

Hi Noémie, Welcome to the group! Your English seems fine.

Many members here love the Harry Potter books and Pride and Prejudice.

Take a look around and feel free to post in any of the threads for various types of books, vote in the polls, etc.

Hi Noemie! I love all of Austen's books. Welcome to the group. I like your little "thumbs up" guy, too! :)

[Lee, Mod Mama]

Welcome to the group Noemie!

[Wendy]

Howdy! Christine mentioned this group and I've been lurking the last few days to get a feel for it. I figured it was time to come out of the woodwork and say hello. I love the idea behind this group and am eager to be a part of it.

I love to read all sorts of books from crime fiction to fantasy, all the variations of fiction, and some nonfiction. Among my favorite comfort read authors are Charlaine Harris, Sue Grafton, Karen E. Olson, Jim Butcher, J.K. Rowling, and Jane Austen. I could go on forever! I just discovered John Green and after reading An Abundance of Katherines by him can't wait to read more. I find him hilarious.

I look forward to getting to know all of you and being a part of this great group.

[Lisa]

Hello Literary Feline, and welcome! Looking forward to getting to know you also. I loved An Abundance of Katherines too and have meant to read more books by John Green since reading it, but I haven't yet. Many of your favorite authors are shared by other members here!

[Wendy]

Thank you for the welcome, Lisa! I'm trying to talk my husband into reading An Abundance of Katherines next. I think he'd get a kick out of it too.

Hi Amelia, Thanks for joining us. Welcome to the group. Check out the bookshelves and the threads that might appeal to you. I hope you find some comforting books to read.

[Wendy]

Welcome, Amelia! I'm with you on enjoying a good comfort read after a long day at work. I hope you enjoy being a part of the group!

[Lee, Mod Mama]

Hi Amelia, I'm glad you've joined us. We have loads of comfort read suggestions in all genres so I'm sure you'll find something to your liking.

[Dawn]

My name is Dawn, and I just found this group a couple of days ago. I spend my work days as a legal admin. assistant and my nights and weekends mostly reading. My all-time comfort book is "The Wind in the Willows" and it has been since I first read it at age 8. In the intervening 47 years, I've had to buy new copies many, many times. I read it to my kids when they were young and not so young, and its the first thing that I've bought for every one of my grandkids.

[[deleted user]]

Welcome to the group Dawn! I think you will find lots of new friends here who share your love of books. :)

[Lisa]

Welcome, Dawn! I'm glad that you found us. I also first read The Wind in the Willows when I was eight. Thanks for sharing your very favorite book.

Please check out our genre threads and post whenever you'd like, and also check out our polls and bookshelves.

[Wendy]

Welcome, Dawn! Wind in the Willows is one of my husband's favorite childhood books. His copy is so worn, but he refuses to replace it. :-)

[Lee, Mod Mama]

Hi Dawn, welcome to the group!

[[deleted user]]

Hi Dawn.... I've been meaning to read Wind for centuries. I never read it when I was a child. I must get to it soon.

I think the first Fudge book was either "Tales of the Fourth Grade Nothing" or "Otherwise Known as Sheila the Great" as they were both made in 1972.

[Lee, Mod Mama]

Welcome to the group Ronyell! Nice to see you here.

Hey, Ronyell, check out the sections on children's literature, they are wonderful.

Oh really?! Thanks! I'll go and check it out!

[Manybooks]

There are I think two sections on children's literature in the discussion section. Also, the bookshelf has children's literature listed. You might find some cool ideas, I know I did.

[Ronyell]

Gundula,

Thanks! I'm checking it out right now!

[Trixi]

Hi! I'm Trixi and decided to join and introduce myself.

I love almost all genres, I've been reading a lot about world war two and the holocaust, so I'm taking a breather from "serious" fiction and moving onto things that are funny and will make me laugh. I recently read Lamb by Christopher Moore and have since moved onto It's a Dirty Job.

I also enjoy all things lemon flavoured.

[Lisa]

Hi Trixi. Glad you joined us and started posting. Welcome to the group.

[[deleted user]]

Hi Trixi and welcome. We have several food and cookbook threads, too!

[Ronyell]

Hey Trixi! Glad you joined this wonderful group!

[Trixi]

Awwww shuckins *blushes* you all are very lovely.

[Lee, Mod Mama]

Hi Trixi, welcome to the group! I love a good lemon pie!

[Jessika]

Hi everyone! I'm Jess!

I just joined and thought I would introduce myself. I'm looking forward to chatting with you all!

My favorite genres are historical fiction, southern fiction, YA, fantasy and some chick lit every so often, but I will give every book a try. My favorite author is Stephen King :)

Well, I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone!

[Lisa]

Hi Jess, Welcome to the group. It sounds as though you'll fit right in. Have a look at our book genre threads and chat threads, bookshelves, and polls. If you mention your comfort read books in the genre threads you can add them to our bookshelves, or Lee or I will be happy to do it for you. Looking forward to getting to know you.
