Hi, my name is Cortney and I'm addicted to GoodReads...

[Cortney]

So I just joined GoodReads a few days ago and LOVING IT. The only problem? I wish I had more people to talk, recommend, and compare books with. :(
Otherwise, this site is AWESOME (as I'm sure many of you already know). I figured if I joined some groups I would find more people to talk with, hopefully.

I like a wide variety of books and am willing to try just about everything once. One of my favorite features of this site is the reviews and reading status updates because I like to see others' opinions and hopefully get comments and critiques on my own reviews.

Anyway, thanks for at least reading this thread, and hopefully I can get to know you!

By the way, advertising myself out is REALLY awkward to me. So hopefully I don't come off like a used car salesman or something in my post. :)

Welcome Cortney! By joining groups I am sure you will find a lot of threads to discuss and recommend books. Be prepare for a huge increase on your To Read list :)

[Bridgit]

Welcome to the group! Get involved in some of the discussions here and you will have more book recommendations and conversations than you can handle!

But Cortney... how can you read with your hands covering your eyes?! ; ) Welcome!

[Sasha]

Hi Cortney! I did a compare with you because I love the compare thing; you'll dig Into Thin Air whenever you get around to it. (Almost) everyone does.

Hi Cortney! You are going to need both hands at this site. This is a busy club.

Hmmm... perhaps I should've thought about that... No wonder everything is so dark... :)

I've read some excerpts from Into Thin Air that were in my high school literature book a few years ago, and I was just really intrigued. Hopefully sometime this summer I'll get around to reading it, then I'll let you all know what I think. :)

Thank you everyone for the warm welcome! I'm really excited about this group and can't wait to take place in more discussions.
