[Denise, Manufacturing Director]

Hi Johanna, where in Finland are you from? :) (I live in Tampere - I'm originally from Germany, though.)

I think anyone can do the old challenges in the "2nd Chance" section, at least I don't remember any rule saying you can't. XD Did I get that right, mods? :)

[Johanna]

Hi Denise, amazing that you're living here as well! :D I'm living in Vaasa, do you know where it is? How long have you been here?

[Denise, Manufacturing Director]

Yes, I know it, never been there though. :) I moved here in November 2008, so it'll be 4 years soon.

[PepperP0t]

[Valentina]

Hi there! I am Valentina, I live in Valdagno, a really small town in Italy, but I speak/write/understand English easlily. (i'm graduating in Foreign Languages at Verona's University)
I read almost every genre, from romance to fantasy, but most of all I love thriller.
I had never heard of book challenges before, but a friend of mine suggested that I joined this group, so here I am, trying to understand what I should do.. let's see if I get a get a grip on it!
What else? I am a great Harry Potter fan and you can call me Vale (yes, I know, I usually give random informations without logical links :D)

[PepperP0t]

welcome Vale. Just check the threads you'll find a great challenge to ease into. They can be addictive

[Inkeri]

Hi everyone! My name is Inkeri and I'm a bookaholic. I live in Finland with my fiance, our two cats and our many many books.

I read because it's a cheap way to "travel" around the world and a fun way to get away from your ordinary life. I'm also addicted to reading challenges, but I wouldn't say I'm a pro, but I'm not a complete noob either.

My favorite genres are cozy mysteries, chick lit and young adult books. I also like to read paranormal books, but I'm not that into zombies. :)

I'm looking forward to "meeting" you all!

[PepperP0t]

hi Inkeri -- the first step to to admit you have a problem. You'll find plenty of friends to share your addiction.

[Kattibrie]

Hi

I'm Katya and I'm from Bulgaria. :) I particularly like fantasy and mysteries, but I don't mind reading other genres too. I'd read almost anything - or at least give it a try. I'm new to challenges here in the discussion groups but I've already challenges myself with the alphabet challenge (titles, authors' first names and authors' last names), as well as the general goodreads 2012 Reading Challenge. I think I'm doing pretty good so far... :)

[~Jennifer~]

[Cherie]

Hi all! I'm Cherie, a 33 yr old SAHM to 2 boys (5 and 18 mos). I've been a GR member for about a year now and love it here. I've been a reader my whole life and usually read at least 2 books a week. Sometimes more.

I don't really have a favorite genre. I like a little bit of everything. I went to school for English Literature so I've read a ton of classics. Nowadays I really prefer to read just for fun and to escape my kids so most of what I read is fun fiction. I love fantasy, dystopia, YA, thrillers and just about anything else. I don't really care for romance (I find it's usually very formulaic) all that much or for "hard" sci-fi (too technical) but I'm willing to read anything if someone I know recommends it.

I've become quite addicted to challenges over the last 4 months or so and have about 50 going right now - that's not including any I join here in TCF. :) I actually have so many going in so many different groups that I created my own group just to keep track of them all. You can check it out here if anyone is interested.

I also have a Nook so please feel free to add me! cherie.searles@gmail.com

I look forward to reading with you all! :)
