Char (CharmaineElaine) | 19 comments Hi there everyone! My name's Char, I'm 22 & I'm from the UK. I'm not new to Goodreads but I took a break from here and now I'm looking for a new group home (the ones I'm a part of seem to have died...). I love reading YA and adult books (mainly YA, I won't lie.) Seriously I'll read anything and I'm looking forward to maybe making some new awesome book loving GR friends. :)

Lol well me translating spanish would be a hell of a job.. since its not my best, Dutch is my first language, spend 1,5 years in Canada where I learned english, we get german in school, from the age of 13 so that I can manage as well..

I am currently reading The mystic wolves, trouble with Angels, and The Shadow of the wind... Which are all really different.. I started of with Twilight, then Vampire diaries, Percy Jackson, Night world series secret circle, Inheritance serie... They all followed...

message 1979: by Alicia (new)

Alicia | 4 comments I've been a member for some time but haven't introduced myself yet, so hey all :) I'm Alicia. Growing up, I was not much of a reader, but as I became an adult, I really started opening myself to some great books, many of which were YA. And though I'm still picky about what I read, it's become one of my favorite hobbies.


message 1980: by Chris (new)

Chris Sorensen (csorensen) Hi Alicia - I'm the same as you. Didn't read much growing up but have found it to be a great passion and escape as an adult who still feels young at heart.


message 1981: by Lauren (new)

Lauren  (TheBookishTwins)  (thebookishtwins) Hello, my name is Lauren. I didn't used to read much until I just went into a shop and picked up a book and have been addicted ever since! I read mainly fantasy YA books. My favourite series is The Infernal Devices by Cassandra Clare, but my favourite book is The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater, and a close second would be another of Maggie's books, which is The Raven Boys. :)


message 1982: by Megan (new)

Megan  (thebookishtwins) (thebookishtwin) Hi, my name is Megan. Reading has become one of my favourite hobbies - probably an addiction as I can't stop reading! I read mostly paranormal YA books, but i'm willing to read other genres too! My favourite series are The Infernal Devices by Cassandra Clare and The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. :)


message 1983: by Rincess (new)

Rincess Hey Lauren! Welcs to the group! Curious though, what was the bookstore you went to that made you get addicted with books?


message 1984: by Lauren (new)

Lauren  (TheBookishTwins)  (thebookishtwins) Waterstones! The one I first went to was absolutely massive, like three floors - but dead expensive instore, so I shop online now :)

Hi Irene!

The Prisoner of Azkaban is currently my favorite out of the first three books! I just love everything about the book. And we get to know more about Harry's parents and their friends. :)

I read the whole series, but it is still one of my favorites, I like sirius black! I should reread them sometime I guess, it has been a while. I thought the fifth and sixth book were a bit slow, but still not to bad.. And ofcourse the Grand finale in book 7 was awesome!
