Introductions!

[Erin]

Please take a moment to introduce yourself!

I'm Erin, of the blog Erin Reads. I'm a reader (obviously), an audiobook listener, and a knitter. I'm currently in school for Information Sciences. My husband and I live in Pennsylvania.

[Cat]

I'm Catherine of Bookish Habits, also a reader (surprise!), an occasional runner & a feminist. I currently live in Missouri with a fiance and two cats and time-travel back to somewhere between 1965 & 1982 for my otherwise standard office job.

[Anita]

I'm Anita. Besides being a reader, I'm a baker, a part-time wage-slave, and a full-time homeschooling mother. I live in Pittsburgh with my husband, son, and too many pets.

[Ellen]

I'm Ellen from Fat Books & Thin Women. I'm a Peace Corps Volunteer in Macedonia, till October. When I finish here I'm moving to Albania to spend nine months doing research as a Fulbright fellow. I'm from NJ and probably heading back to that region when I finish up here.

[Virginie]

I'm Virginie, living in Paris (France). I am particularly interested in american fiction and enjoy reading in english. I am also very interested in japanese literature. I love to travel with my family (husband and daughter).

[Erin]

Hi everyone, welcome!

[Erin]

Welcome to the group, Jillian! I hope to see classics make appearances on the Reading Buddies list, so hopefully we'll have another one for which you can join in soon. Also, if there's a particular classic for which you'd like company, just let me know. There are informal, less scheduled reads that happen here, too!

[Louisereviews]

Hi, I'm Louise from Louise Reviews. I live in Surrey in England and my other hobbies include scuba diving, leading a local Brownie group and studying at the Open University.

[Erin]

Hi Louise, welcome to the group! I've always thought scuba diving would be a fascinating hobby, but I've never lived anywhere near water. Someday! I look forward to reading with you!

[Jane]

Hi all!
My name is Jane and I work at the University of Nevada, Reno where I am also a student of history. I have always wanted to read this classic so I joined on Thursday and picked up a copy of the book this weekend. I am so interested in reading other people's impressions of the story. It is long but I am still sure I can read it during the rest of November. I am excited to meet you all.

[Erin]

Hi Jane! Thanks for introducing yourself, and welcome to the group! I'm really happy to be finally reading The Woman in White and hope you enjoy it, too. Looking forward to discussing!

[Jane]

Thank you for the welcome. I am already excited about the story and I am only about 50 pages in so far. I cancelled my lunch date and instead spent my lunch hour reading this book.

[Erin]

I know that feeling! I've spent many a lunch hour with a good book instead of other people. I'm glad you're enjoying the book so much. I'm actually off to read some more of it now...

[Heidi]

Hi! I'm Heidi and have been a book worm since I started reading. I like fantasy, adventure, paranormal, historical fiction and suspenseful books. I hope to read with some of you soon!
