[B.A.]

Hey, I'm Becky. I'm a MS Librarian, and I like to write YA too (only for fun...not published). I read in most of the genres, but I'm more partial to Sci-Fi/Fantasy/Speculative Fiction genres. I could use more Goodreads friends, if anyone wants to add me. :)

[Natasa]

Hi guys! I'm Natasha, art student. I'm pretty new on goodreads and so far I'm quite excited and loving it :) I love various genres, recently I like to read urban fantasy, YA, contenporary and mystery books.

I noticed you said that your current fave is A Discovery of Witches . . . I've kept seeing that book in my college library,(It's a really thick number, right?) Is it any good?

[Marina]

Hello, guys,

I'm Marina, or Nina (I prefer Nina :)) and I'm from Rio, Brazil. My story with YA is different from the most part of you. I just started reading YA when I was 20 (i'm 22 now), since I spent most part of my teen years reading Adult Fiction. When i finally discover YA...I was blown away by how much this books can contribute to literature.

I love Fantasy AND contemporary YA. My tastes run from Cassandra Clare to John Green and J.D Salinger.
I'm definetly an eclectic reader.

Hope to find friends here.

Best

[Harold]

Hello, my name is Harold. I'm 23 years old, and in very new to reading. I've only started reading over the last few months. I have managed to read 3 books so far. None are YA from what i can gather (The Broken Man by Josephine Cox, Skulduggery Pleasant book 1, and Street Kid by Judy Westwater). I would like anyone to recommend me a good YA author and maybe even a book or two by that Author so i can begin my journey on reading YA books. Im amazed at how much a book can touch you and your imagination can run wild trying to pixie every scene. So hello everyone. It's good to be here.

[Charlotte]

Hello I'm charlotte I'm 12 years old. Some of my favorite books are where the red fern grows, Matched, and my life next door!!

Glad to have you join us! I would suggest Looking for Alaska by John Green (although I haven't read it yet, It seems to be getting a lot of good reviews), The Hunger Games, Harry Potter, Farenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky, The Princess Bride by William Goldman, The GIver Series (I've only read the Giver, It was pretty good), and last but cretainly not least The Mortal Intrument Series by Cassandra Clare! I could go on forever, but I suggest you read the summary and Reviews for each and choose whichever you are interested in!! Hope I helped!!

Hey Charlotte! Wow, 12 so young! I can't get any of my siblings to get interested in reading! WELCOME!

[A.m.runyan]

Hi I'm Avery. Currently 18 years old and in my first year of college, but I still enjoy reading yound adult books, especially books series like the Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, and Artemis Fowl. Some of my favorite books off the top of my head are Graceling, Wizard's First Rule (not so much a young adult book, but it's a really good book), Ender's Game, and Jane Eyre.

I'm currently attempting to write a book. I've written most of it out now and I'm just trying to edit it. Grammar is my downfall, which is ironic because I love writing. I think I love more the story telling aspect than following the proper rules of communication.

[Brynn]

I'm Brynn. I love An Abundance of Katherines and any Sarah Dessen book. Super excited to join this group.

[Potato]

Hey, I'm Erin I am only 13 but read I can still read about 2 books a day. I live in Juneau, Alaska and spend most of my time reading and school stuff. The most recent book Iv read was The Host, it was so interesting I stayed up late to finish it. It took about a day to read. Now I don't really know what to read now. Any recommendations? I have read the mortal instruments, shiver, hunger games, halo, matched, I am number four, my life next door, the last song, falt in our stars, etc...
So basically, I read a lot of teen romance, action, and a little drama. I literally just got a goodreads account a few mints ages, so I'm a bit confused. I'm glad i found a group to join. Now because I live in Alaska, the time zones are completely different, currently, here it is about 7:00. Sorry if i comment in the middle of the night.

Wow you're a fast reader! I've read the Mortal Instruments and Hunger Games too! I LOVED them both! I'm really excited about the Catching Fire movie, the next Mortal Instruments book, City of Heavenly Fire, and the next movie, City of Ashes.
Have you ever read The Maze Runner Trilogy? It's such a good trilogy! And I can't wait for the movie to come out next year!

[Amy]

Love this group and the recommendations for YA texts--I've found great reads through you all (found the mortal instruments series). I'm a big fan of dystopian and fantasy novels and am excited Allegiant is the read for this month. Picking up my copy tomorrow!

In addition to being a fan of YA books, I am also an educational researcher studying how young people read and talk about reading on Goodreads. If you would be interested in talking with me about your experiences using Goodreads or if you want more details about the study, head over to my profile info or my website (or friend me!).
