Amanda | 4 comments Thanks. Glad to be here. So I got a link emailed to me about reading shook and Skype. I don't have Skype and is it mandatory to read the book? Not sure how it all works.

Lina | 5563 comments Hi Ruby!! The bridgertons are one series I keep meaning to get back to. I need to move them up my TBR list. So far I've only read the first 2.

Lina | 5563 comments Joani - is that a big move? Will it be your first move with three kids? What kind of romance do you read?

Theodora (needlessly_unkind) | 1 comments Hello everyone :) My name is Theodora and I'm from Greece. I can't really remember the first time that I read a book nor what my first book was because I was really young. I'm 16 and I proudly admit that I am a bookworm. My favourite book will always be Harry Potter but there are so many others that I like too for example Pride and Prejudice , Les miserables and The Ballet Shoes. That's it for now I guess :)


message 865: by Lina (new)

Lina | 5563 comments Hi Theodora!! I loved Les Miserables, too. I read it when I was 17 and it took me ages, but then for my 18th, my mum took me to see the theatre production... it was fantastic in a completely different way:-)

Glad to have you here! Bookworms definitely welcome :-)


Rachel the Book Harlot Hi Amanda and Theodora! Welcome!

Victoria Valentine (victoriavalentine) Hi. I'm Victoria Valentine, a New York writer and indie book publisher. I love writing in all genres and have written a children's storybook, horror story anthology, a romance novel, and will be releasing a serial killer novel in two weeks. I also dabble in poetry, and published a collection of romance poems last year.

I'm happy to have found this wonderful group!

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 20787 comments Welcome to RLftCI, Victoria! Still ♥ children's books.


message 871: by Lina (new)

Lina | 5563 comments Hi Victoria! I'm interested that you've written in all those genres. Do you use the same name for all of them, or have you altered your nom-de-plume to be identifiable in specific genres?

Hi Carol.

I do use two different names. I started writing as Victoria Valentine, but when I wrote Love Dreams (kind of erotic), I used my birth month, January, to try to separate it from the children's books. My next book may or may not be YA :D it depends upon what develops, so with that one, I may or may not use Victoria. I've had a project waiting on my desktop for several years, a collection of short stories and poetry. I even have the cover designed. If I ever get to editing on that one, I'll use Victoria.

Thank you, Lisa :-)

The Cutest Little Duckie has his own website if you'd like to check it out. Duckie 2 has been written for about 3 years ? give or take. I have a bad habit of starting and not finishing my own projects. Right now I have a third Dream book started, along with 15,000 words of another romance. Maybe some day I'll get to finish them all. We all know how busy life is - and writing takes so much time and energy. Plus I'm fanatical and revise time and time again, so I find I don't get very far! LOL

Victoria Valentine (victoriavalentine) Hi Everyone.

I'm going to try to keep up with the book readings. I'm just wrapping up Sweet Dreams and have 3 books to publish for others, but would like to join you with Breathe. I may be slow and disappear for a while :-)

How funny, I started the same way! My mother was constantly reading romances. I didn't think they were worth reading until I picked one of her's up and gave it a shot. I can't get enough of them now. :)


 Danielle The Book Huntress  (gatadelafuente) Small world, Heidi!

Lisa Jo (lisajo85) | 35 comments Hey everyone!

My name is Lisa Jo and I'm from the St. Louis area...any other midwest romance fans out there? :-D

I will read any sub genre of romance, but my favorites are historical and paranormal.

I don't think I could pick a favorite...I just love too many! Like Elizabeth Hoyt, Carrie Lofty, Lisa Kleypas, Kresley Cole, Gena Showalter, Larissa Ione...this list could go on forever! lol

Looking forward to spending some quality time here! I love talking to other romance fans!
