Aimee Janetzki (aimeejanetzki) | 2 comments Hello everyone!

My name is Aimee and I am a young teen from Vic. I have had a love for reading my whole life and started my blog (http://www.ponderingbooks.com/) to share my passion with the world. On my blog I review books which is an amazing experience for me. I am also absolutely obsessed with GoodReads, so you will probably see me on here a lot, Lol!

message 7340: by Susan (new)

Susan Preston | 4 comments Greetings folks - my name is Susan and I have just found you. In fact Goodreads has been a bit of a mystery to me. Let me introduce myself. I am from Perth, originally from Scotland - very different out here LOL, but I have been here a long time and I am used to it. I read a lot about Australia when I first came here, but I must confess this country was not on my 'bucket list' of must live here. (I married an Aussie, that's how I became transplanted.)
I am an author, but I don't write about Australia. My genre is Christian historical fiction, and I really enjoy reading and writing about them. The people became real to me. :)
I hope to visit here often now that I know you exist :) Thank you for having me.
Susan

T.J. Adams (tjadamsauthor) | 7 comments Hi everyone my name is Terina and I live all the way over in the west, Perth. I used to be a great reader of print books and then decided to try my hand at being an author. Learning the craft, then writing, plus working, took up a lot of my time (plus all the others things that need to be taken care of when you have three kids) so what I found was my time to read diminished.
I'm slowly finding a happy medium, kind of, and entering into the world of the ebook, which I resisted strongly at first. What made me cave in was my loss of time; I simply couldn't spend hours at the bookshop any more trying to deciding what I would buy next. I also love the convenience of sitting up in bed and deciding what to read then clicking a button and it appears on my computer for me to read straight away.
I'm only just finding my feet in goodreads so happy to stumble on this group. I'm eclectic in my choice of reads, although lately I have been reading more paranormal romance, dystopian, urban fantasy because they are the genres I write in. I do love a good psychological thriller eg Gillain Flynn. Recently brought a huge tome by Dean Koontz called Ashley Bell, but have only managed the first chapter in over a week because my head keeps falling between the pages I'm that tired. I'm not normally into thriller/spy/espionage but I do love Daniel Silva and his Hero Gabriel Allon, a more reachable James Bond. I'm also aiming to try some Mark Dawson as well, a recently discovered author in that genre, whose blog I now follow (he's a bit of a self-published guru).
Any how look forward to exploring this group some more
