[Jessica]

Hello people!
I am here (in this forum.. I've been a member of goodreads for years) because I need the help of romance readers.
I am a reader, writer, and PhD student in psychology.
I study the relationship between fiction and imagination, fiction and morality, fiction and reasoning, and fiction and pretty much everything else I can think of. At this moment, I am studying genres (most of the attention of academia has gone toward literary fiction), and this is where (hopefully) some of you might be able and willing to help me.
We're collecting data right now, and for some reason I am not getting many romance readers (or horror; I've posted in a horror group too). We need people who are familiar with a wide variety of romance authors to take our 10-15 minute survey.
If you could do so, I'd really really appreciate it. Pasting link below :)
Thanks!

[Bobbi]

*peeks* Hello!

I'm Bobbi and I like reading romance starring men that are decidedly more fangy -- I'm aware that isn't a word but I've just made it one -- than my own and book challenges.

[Rachel C.]

Hello. My name is Rachel. I just joined and I'm really excited to have found this group! I can't get enough of romance books and I love reading challenges, so this is everything I love all in one place :) And just in time for Valentine's Day, too! I'm on a bit of a historical romance kick at the moment, but ultimately I like nearly every romance genre and I'm especially a sucker for a happy ending. I'm really looking forward to joining in!

[MountainKat, Moderator]

Welcome Rachel! It sounds like you are going to fit right in here! I hope to see you around the group and in some challenges!

[Steph's Romance Book Talk]

Hello all, happy to finally find a group that is all about the romance!!! I adore romance stories on all levels from the light/fluffy to the super dark/twisted. I hope to find some new subscribers to my YouTube Channel: Stephanie Uncensored where I talk about all the books I read. I look forward to discussing and learning about some new books as well :-)

[MountainKat, Moderator]

Welcome Stephanie - enjoy the group!

[Jane (PS), Moderator]

Welcome to the group Stephanie - hope you find some new material in amongst our members shelving :)

[Hely]

Hey there! I am Hely. I love reading. But I am especially partial to Romance. I turn to it when I am in need of some cheering. I am hoping to find new books to read from this group.

[MountainKat, Moderator]

Hi Hely! I'm sure you will find LOTS of new books here! Just look around in some of the challenges and discussions and your TBR will grow and grow - at least mine did! =P

[Bookdoctor]

Hello Everyone!
I am Isolde from the Netherlands and a complete romance novel addict. My moment of relaxation is reading a romance novel from cover to cover. I look forward to getting some fresh ideas for romance novels to read.

[MountainKat, Moderator]

Hi Isolde! You are sure to get lots of ideas for new books here - too many in fact! I don't think I'll ever be able to read all the books I want to, but that doesn't stop me from finding more!!

[Jane (PS), Moderator]

Welcome to the group Isolde (though from now on I'm sure I'll be calling you Book Doctor!) Hope you find a few good books here - or at least find great reasons to read the ones you already have with our challenges :D

[Kelly]

Hello! I'm Kelly, I got into Romance books while I was pregnant last year and haven't stopped. I'm excited to join this group.

[Olivia Out Loud]

Hello, I'm Olivia. This group popped up on my home page andI just HAD to join! Looks like a lot of fun! I have been a reader my entire life. I'm picky about what I read though, so I look forward to your recommendations. I love contemporary romance novels, but not the kind where a silly misunderstanding keeps them apart. I love YA, mysteries, time travel, historical sagas...you name it!

[[deleted user]]

HIIIII im noor nice to meet you

[MountainKat, Moderator]

Welcome Kelly, Olivia and Noor! I hope you enjoy the group!

[Drishti]

[[deleted user]]

Hi guys! I love romance and hunourous books and my favourite romance book is Fangirl. m hoping to clear my to-read shelf and Im putting my reading to a test this year. Hoping to have fun! :)

[Connie N.]

Good luck with clearing your TBR, Masoodah. I've only added to mine by being here and checking out everyone else's books!

[MountainKat, Moderator]

Welcome Masodah! I agree with Connie - my TBR has grown and grown even though my reading has continued to increase!

Welcome to the group Masoodah! I doubt your TBR will reduce, but you'll have fun adding to it ;) LOL.

[Ellie]

Hi everyone,
I'm Ellie. I like all kinds of romance and I'm always looking for new books to try. I've never tried a challenge but they look like fun!

Hey Ellie - welcome to the group! I hadn't done any challenges before joining this group, and when I signed up I thought I'd just play the games and chat. Boy, was I wrong! I was SO hooked by the time I finished my first monthly challenge :D

[MountainKat, Moderator]

Welcome Ellie! Jane is right - challenges are addicting! You have been warned!!

But they are also a really great way to meet new people, find new books and new authors too! Not to mention that they keep you reading, which is awesome!

[Julie]

Hi there,
My name's Julie and I'm from Belgium. I like to read novels because they are so addicting. I'm trying to read as much books as I can :)

[MountainKat, Moderator]

Welcome Julie! Hopefully you will find some motivation here to keep on reading!

[Chrissy_Mae]

Hey! I am new to goodreads and reading groups in general. I am very excited to join and participate. I love reading anything from biographies to cookbooks. But, I have special love for romance novels. My home collection is ridiculous. When I'm not at home with my family, I can usually be found at my local book trade. I love rescuing used romance novels.

[MountainKat, Moderator]

Hi Chrissy_Mae! Welcome to the group! Good luck rescuing those books, they need to find a good home! =P

[Jane (PS), Moderator]

Welcome to the group Julie and Chrissy_Mae :D Hope you have a great time here, and meet a heap of like-minded friends. (...Pretty sure you will ;)

[Angelina]

Hello! I'm Angie and I've loved reading since I was a kid. I read a variety of books but am secretly addicted to romance novels (historical, contemporary) and fantasy (R.A Salvatore) books. As a working mom though, my reading time is limited, so Kobo e-books have now become my new best friend. This is the first time I'm joining a book club so I am looking forward to it. :-)
