Dre (drez80) | 18 comments Hi All, I'm a newbie here, and I joined because I'm hoping the challenges will help/force me to read more of the books I own but haven't read yet.


message 1711: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31805 comments Welcome Dre! That is a great goal for some challenges, unfortunately for me I seem to add as many books as I read. =) I'm not complaining though! =P

message 1721: by Tammy (new)

Tammy Bailey (tammylbailey) | 3 comments Hello. My name is Tammy, and I LOVE romance. My favorite author is Jane Austen, and I will read (and watch) any adaptation of hers. I also enjoy reading/watching anything from the Regency era. To me, there has to be a happy ending. I'm so glad to have found this group.


message 1722: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31805 comments I so agree Tammy! No HEA = No good!

Welcome to the group - I hope you enjoy it here. Beware though, you could become a challenge addict like the rest of us! =)

Jennifer Chen | 1 comments Hi everyone i Jennifer and i love to read all kind of books


message 1726: by Jane (PS), Moderator (last edited Apr 24, 2015 06:48PM) (new)

Jane (PS) | 24352 comments Hey there Tammy, Lani and Jennifer! Welcome to the group :)

Lani - you'd be surprised how many of the members here on GR class themselves as very shy (I'm not one of them ;). Just get in and find a challenge you enjoy, and start chatting - not everyone will comment, but you're likely to find some like-minded souls here :)

Tammy - we have quite a few members who love the historical romances. I love Jane Austen and Georgette Heyer, but I generally read urban fantasy and MM.

Jennifer - Most of us dabble in a few different genres and sub-genres :)


message 1727: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31805 comments Hi Jennifer! Have fun here, everyone is super friendly! =)

S.J. Higgins Hi Lane, Tammy and Jennifer. Welcome. I'm also fairly new here and am still trying to navigate my way around. Here's to hoping you have more luck than me ; )

S.J. Higgins Freaking autocorrect on my phone. sorry Lani.


message 1730: by Saisaa (new)

Saisaa Hi! I just joined in here. I'm Saisaa and I love reading books, specifically those involving romance. I joined this group cause I really wanted more people to understand this novel addiction I have. Other reason is to test myself with new challenges.


message 1731: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24352 comments Welcome to our group Saisaa!! Plenty of fodder here to keep you busy with challenges. Hope you enjoy it here :)

message 1735: by Lizzy (new)

Lizzy Wessel (MrsWessel1989) | 2 comments Hey! Everyone my name is Lizzy I was born and raised in South Carolina and now I am raising my little family in South Carolina. I have a wonderful husband and two beautiful children. I am a huge Nora Roberts fan. The first romance book I ever read was Book 1 in the Three Sisters Island trilogy "Dance Upon the Air". After I read that book I just had to read the series. I can get lost in a romance novel any day.

message 1741: by Becky (last edited May 09, 2015 08:45AM) (new)

Becky | 160 comments Hi, I'm Becky and I'm happy to have found this group. It looks like there are a lot of fun and interesting challenges to try.

Reading is like air to me. I can't imagine going a day without it. Romance is my favorite genre but I also like to mix it up with a good mystery/thriller from time to time. I'm a "two-fisted" reader these days, always reading one book and listening to another.


message 1742: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31805 comments Hi Becky! I've always got two going as well - love those audiobooks! Welcome to the group!


message 1743: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24352 comments Welcome Becky!! Hope you have a great time here :) Like your expression 'two-fisted'. I do the same thing, although sometimes it is three- and four-fisted ;)


message 1744: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31805 comments Hi Amly! Challenges should help with that to read shelf - one way or the other... I know I have read more since I started with this group, but I also add lots of new stuff I want to read too!
