I love horror and psychological thrillers but I read a little of everything. I am a little addicted to challenges to tell you the truth.I have two cats named Puppet and Goon. I collect cookbooks from everywhere I travel and I also have a pretty nice collection of autographed novels and comic books. I'm looking forward to joining this group , the challenges look amazing.

[Tia]

Hi my name is Tia and I'm from California. My favorite genre is supernatural or paranormal whatever you wanna call it. I'm sort of new to reading challenges even though i kind of challenge myself to read more.

[Paris]

Welcom to the group Tia! I hope you enjoy the challenges we have here.

[Tia]

I'm sure I will.

Hi Group
My name is Julie. I'm 55 and from Ohio. Housewife, have 3 kids and 7 grandkids , most of our family lives in other states ,so I have a lot of free time to read.

I like reading nonfiction best, but also read fiction ,depending on my mood I guess .

I think the idea of reading challenges sounds like lots of fun. I've been in reading groups online for several years where everyone reads and discusses the same book, but I'm ready for more of a challenge, less rules about what to read, but more fun trying to pick books that would fit a specific category.

Hoping to meet new friends in here . My personal page isn't nearly complete yet, so I have lots of books to record,etc .

Excited to get started in here :)

[Jenne]

Welcome Tia & Julie!

Welcome to the group Julie!

Hello everybody,

I'm Diana from Portugal and I love reading challenges (especially when they are music related - one of my other passions). Actually, I enjoy everything related to art (my cats included, they are the best entertainers in the world) and my most recent hobby is to create jewelry and other handcrafts.

I usually read romance novels and I have a preference for paranormal, historical fiction and contemporary romance.

This group was recommended to me by a friend :)

Introduce Yourself!


Introduce yourself to the group and tell us a little bit about yourself☺ Let us know...

♥You name? (what you would like to be called)
♥Where are you from?
♥Your favorite Genre?
♥Are you a pro at challenges or a newcomer?
♥Any thing else you would like to share! "

Hi all, I'm Christina T. from Iowa. I followed Lauren here because I love a good challenge. The one going on now (SSS....um something) sounds so fun but my reading can be so sporadic that committing to 2 books a week with a specific deadline gives me gas. Anyway, I mostly read romances (paranormal tends to be my favorite but love a good rom/susp and historical also) I read some YA and a few mysteries. Occasionally I'll read a children's book or non-fiction but rarely. Literary Fiction tends to bore me to tears as does historical fiction (yet I love historical romances...go figure).

I have been a long standing member of Shelfari but am really trying to figure my way around GR just in case Amazon decides they don't need 2 awesome sauce sites like this and close down Shelfari (sad panda at the thought). On Shelfari I belong to a few challenge groups which I love. This one looks to be quite creative so I'm hoping to join in on the next challenge that crops up.

Besides posting stuff about books I'll probably post quite a bit about my Bichon Frise Bastien. He's the only kid I have (but I take care of 3 other Bichons right now also.) I guess that is all for now.

I'm not going to list any favorite books or anything because my list is way too long! I'm happy to be here and can't wait to join in!

[Jenne]

Good to have you!

[Georgia]

Hi I"m Georgia. I'm just a teen, but love reading. I'm from Pennsylvania. I will read most things, as long as it's for my age group. I have read the occasional adult book, but I mostly stick to historical fiction, fantasy, and dystopian. I've never done challenges, so not sure where to start.

-Georgia

[Jenne]

Welcome! Try the different challenges in the monthly folder they're a good place to start and the foreman ones are too.

[Paris]

Welcome to the group Diana, Jesus, Christina and Georgia! Hope you all enjoy yourselves here!

[PepperP0t]

Hi newcomers!

Georgia, your books will fit in the challenges as well.

[Deb]

Hi, My name is Deb. I am from Nashville, Tn but visit Dublin, Ireland frequently since my boyfriend is from Ireland. I love cats. :)
I joined this group a week ago. I love the challenges that this group offers. I joined a mini challenge since October is halfway over. I can't wait for the challenges in November. :)
My favorite genre to read is cozy mysteries, but I enjoy reading some chick lit, christian romance, crime mystery and general fiction. I hope to make new friends or challenge buddies.

[PepperP0t]

Hi Deb, I'm sure you'll find lots of challenges to join and you'll definitely find new friends don't forget to poke around for new reads or just ask for recommendations

Hello, my name is Sam, I am from Canada! I love fantasy and supernatural type books, particularly young adult, and I'm absolutely terrible at challenges but I do them anyway!

I started University this year and surprisingly that's actually given me more time to read! I spend so much time at the university waiting for a drive that I run out of anything else to do!

[PepperP0t]

hey Sam from Canada, welcome. you aren't terrible at challenges, you just have to find the right one for you.

[❤Stephanie ღ♥ღMrs Daryl Dixonღ♥ღ]

Hi I'm Stephanie, I'm 22 and live in Australia.
my favourite genre is Adult Paranormal Romance.
i love challenges I'm kind of addicted to them so I will probably join a lot in this group.

[Jenne]

Welcome to all of our new members!

[PepperP0t]

Welcome newcomers I missed, there's always room for one more in a challenge.

[Nichole]

Hi, I'm Nichole from Oklahoma. I bounce between PNR, CR, HR, UF and Fantasy. In other words, mostly Romance. I don't know if I would call myself a pro at challenges but I'm definitely addicted to them. I'm pretty shy and it took over a year of being on GR for me to make a peep. I seem to have come out of my shell quite a bit this year though :) I've been considering this group for a while now and figured this was the perfect time to join. A new year of challenges! Yay!
