Netanella | 439 comments Hi Sarah and everyone else - welcome! I joined this awesome group about a month ago and have become addicted to the challenges.

MountainKat | 31793 comments Welcome Flower! I think you will love it here - I find lots of new books in all the challenges! And I read lots more too!

Your Hubby-2-Be sounds like a keeper!!

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments Welcome Sarah and Flower! The challenges are great for finding new books and sorting out what to read next. ...not so great on your wallet, but what the hey ;) it's all good clean fun!


message 965: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31793 comments Absolutely Sarah! One of my favorite things is fitting what I want to read into as many challenges as possible! The puzzle aspect is fun for me.

Kat Morrisey (katmorrisey) | 30 comments Hi, everyone. I don't think I ever introduced myself here, so without further adieu: I'm Kat, from Upstate New York, and am a total romance book addict. And I am also becoming addicted to the challenges in this group. I love how they keep me motivated AND let me tackle the crazy number of books on my Nook (and in paperbacks) that I have. I also find a lot of cool books others are reading that I hadn't heard of, and meet great folks, so yeah, BONUS!

Lastly, I received the new Kindle Paperwhite for Christmas so y'all know what this means...more books to read for 2014 challenges!! Yay! :D


message 967: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31793 comments HI Kat, from another Kat!! Isn't the motivation to read more one of the best parts of the challenges?! My reading total keeps going up every year! Of course, my production in just about everything else has gone down... Oh well! =)

Have fun with your new Paperwhite!!


message 968: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments Hey Kat - glad you dropped by to say hi :)

Hopefully we'll find even more challenges for you to waster spend more time sorting through ;)


message 969: by Sera (new)

Sera (seracatty) | 33 comments Hi!

I saw this group mentioned in another group and it sparked my interest and after visiting I immediately became a member. I've recently discovered romance novels - which I love - and I enjoy reading challenges.

I'm Cécile and I'm from the Netherlands. I'm currently in college, so I don't always have time to read as much I'd like. But I've loved reading since I can remember and romance novels have become my new guilty pleasure :)


message 970: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31793 comments Hi Cécile! Welcome! Reading romance doesn't have to be a 'guilty' pleasure here - unless it is guilt from doing nothing else!!


message 971: by Kaica~Mae (new)

Kaica~Mae  | 14 comments Hi!!

I'm Kaica~Mae, an avid reader who will read anything with a Smidge of Romance in it. Due to our New Years Eve plans being cancelled (I've 2 poorly daughters full of the Flu, now fast asleep in Mummy's bed), I thought I'd look for some new reads for the new year and discovered this group, so thought I'd join and say Hello (:


message 972: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31793 comments Welcome Kaica~Mae! That is just about how I found this group several years ago - minus the poorly kiddos! I hope you have as much fun here as I do. Happy New Year!! (Hope tomorrow is better for you and the kiddos!)

Haha, thank you! It's nice to know I'm not alone :)
Nobody I know likes to read them, sadly.

And welcome Kaica-Mae! Hope your kids will feel better soon!

Oh, and happy new year everyone!

I think many of us have the same experience, that is what makes this group even better!


message 975: by Gemma (new)

Gemma | 54 comments Hi, I joined this group because I love romance books, they are the main genre of books that I read. If its not a romance book then I normally can't get into it unless it is a book that I have already seen the movie too or a friend has told me about it. Any way, that's me and why I joined this group.


message 976: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments Welcome Cecile, Kacia~Mae and Gemma! It's lovely to see some new 'faces' :)


message 977: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31793 comments Hi Gemma! I hope to see you around in some challenges! You all picked a great time to join the group - so many new things starting!


message 978: by Maggie (new)

Maggie (magzzzz) | 84 comments Hi there,

I'm Maggie and I am a bookaholic. I can't stop buying and I figure by "challenging" myself I might read a few more this year. Not that I'll ever read more than I buy but I do what I can. :)


message 979: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31793 comments Hi Maggie! The challenges will most likely increase what you read - they have helped me that way every year!! Unfortunately, they also help you find more books to buy... And we are all a bunch of enablers too! I hope you have fun here!


message 980: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31793 comments Hi Ariel! Welcome back!


message 981: by Tara (new)

Tara Bradley (TaraAnnWrites) | 4 comments Hello Everyone!!!

As a romance book lover for the past thirty years I am excited to join this group. What I love more than reading is talking what I've read, especially when I've discovered yet another book boyfriend. I look forward to discussing romance books with all of you.


message 982: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31793 comments Oh Tara, you are going to fit right in!! Who are your favorite book boyfriends right now?

Welcome by the way!


message 983: by Tara (new)

Tara Bradley (TaraAnnWrites) | 4 comments Right now, at this moment, since I just finished Broken Dove by Kristen Ashley, it is Apollo, though I am kind of crushing on Archilles from that book.


message 984: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31793 comments It's amazing how it changes with almost every book we read isn't it?!


message 985: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31793 comments We have a year long buddy read of Kristen Ashley books this year - you should be sure to join in!!


message 986: by Cat (new)

Cat | 4 comments Hello everyone! My name is Cat and I'm new to the group. I love all the reading challenges; I'm hoping they will help me organize all my reading! I love romance novels...but I need a HEA! I'm always looking for recommendations.


message 987: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31793 comments Welcome Cat!! I need my HEA too, but you can find lots of them here!!


☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎ | 2498 comments Hi everyone, I don't know if I introduced myself to you but here it goes.
My name is Carmen and I'm new to this group. I live in New York, where it is currently full of snow everywhere. I love reading all kinds of books and Goodreads help me to empty my TBR list and I really like enjoy discussions and challenges too.


message 989: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31793 comments Hi Carmen - looking forward to seeing you in some challenges!! We are really good at filling up TBRs here!


message 990: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments Welcome to the group Maggie, Ariel, Tara, Cat and Carmen!!! More books here than you can poke a stick at!


☼♎ Carmen the Bootyshaker Temptress ☼♎ | 2498 comments Thanks MountainKat. :) That's great because I think I need to clear that list up. It seems like I add more to my TBR than adding to my read list.

I think most of us have that problem - I know I do!
