Jamie (treesofreverie) McMahon (treesofreverie) | 6 comments Hey, I'm Sarah! I've only recently joined Goodreads after many recommendations from friends on Tumblr that this is a great place to meet new people and discover some awesome books. I started up a book/quotes blog on Tumblr earlier this year as a way to keep track of the books I read and the quotes I love from those books - it's definitely inspired me to read more and even though I've always loved books and reading I'm even more into it now than ever before. :)

Shannon (clarabellas) | 2 comments Hi everyone, I'm Shannon, from Perth. I'm a pre-law student at UWA. I have a book blog on Tumblr, but have been a member of Goodreads for several years.
I read a range of different genres, but mostly epic/high fantasy. I always love reading new things, though. It's lovely to meet you all. :)


message 4319: by Shane (new)

Shane Thanks Brenda, Sharon :)
Thought I'd give it another go. It's hard for me to keep up with conversations on account of being busy... But I do miss reading everyone's comments.
Happy reading all

Laura | 16 comments Hi guys,
I'm Laura from Brisbane - I've been a member of Goodreads for a while but am only just getting around to exploring it properly. I will read pretty much anything I can get my hands on - literary fiction, fantasy, comedy, biographies, anything.
Nice to meet you all :o)

Bec | 2 comments Hi everyone!!
I'm a married SAHM from Sydney who loves to read alot of different genres but currently loving biographies and memoirs. I read when I can, as it helps keep my mind active and also is a way of relaxing. :-)

message 4336: by S.K. (new)

S.K. Munt (wordwhisperer) Hi I'm Samantha and I'm an author and BIG reader from Mackay in North Queensland. I've never belonged to a reading group before, unless you count screaming my opinions about whatever I'm reading on Facebook. I confessed that I joined for promo but I'm really into the discussion groups.
I'm 30, a mother of 3 girls and married.I've just debuted a book on Kindle (and silently hating myself for selling out to e-books) but I also work part-time as a karaoke host and run a small, very boring business with my husband.
I've been reading literally since I was 2. Nothing is out of my scope. I would easily flip open an edition of The Baby-Sitters Club as I would Life Of Pi, Twilight, Pillars Of The Earth or 50 Shades Of Grey. All words matter :) BUt my FAVOURITE book is 'Twilight Eyes' by Dean Koontz.

message 4344: by August (new)

August I'm Ruth, 23, and I've been a bookworm since I can remember. I come from a family of them. I read mostly Sci Fi and fantasy, some YA fiction, and some non fiction books generally related to gender, feminism or mental illness.

Wilmar Luna (wilmarluna) Hello everyone!

My name is Wilmar Luna, and I am actually a Guatemalan American author from Trenton, New Jersey.

I was recommended to join this group after Litbug left a review of my book The Silver Ninja. Since I've been friends with many aussie's online, I thought I would stop by and say hello!

I'm looking forward to participating in any discussions going on in the group.

I don't think I've ever gotten a G'Day from the Ozzie's I spoke to. Though one did give me the stereotypical, "I'm Ozzie, Oi! Oi! Oi!" to poke fun. :D
