Romance Readers Reading Challenges discussion
Introduce Yourself
>
Just joined? Drop in and say Hi!
Welcome Muna and Doemar! Glad you found us!Muna, we love discussing books here - I'm sure you will find some discussions to help you out. And I understand that need, some in my family read but not like I do and not my kind of books either!
Doemar, hopefully you will find some challenges to help you finish some books! They really motivate me! =)
Hi hey hello. Very excited to be here. I read a variety of genres, but I hope I'm still just as welcome in here :) I find myself wanting to read more and more new adult lately so that's the main reason why I joined.
Welcome Irene! Glad you found us. =) We read primarily romance, so a lot of the challenges start that way, but we don't care what you read as long as it fits! That is the wonderful thing about books, there are enough for everyone because we all have different tastes!
Greetings! I just stumbled across this group and it looks exactly like what I've been looking for! I read several different genres but primarily romance. And, by romance, I mean romantic erotica. I hope that's okay? I'm anxious to get started on a challenge. Nothing motives me more! And, a special thanks to the Mods for maintaining such a great group!
Welcome Camille! I'm so glad you found us! We love challenges and romance so I'm sure you are going to fit right in. We don't care what you read for the challenges as long as it fits the requirements. And our members read all across the spectrum when it comes to the spice level too!
Welcome to everyone ~ Muna, Doemar, Irene and Camille!!!!Hope you all have a blast here :) As Kat, we all read different genres although nearly everyone focusses on romance in one of its sub-genre varieties, but if it fits a challenge we are great with it being used :D
Hi guys. My name is Lauren and I'm new to the group (obviously). I LOVE romance novels. Was never a reader. Actually, read the 50 Shades of Grey trilogy and it got me hooked on the romance genre. A friend recommended I try On the Island by Tracey Garvis-Graves and since then I have been reading like crazy! I have read over 200 books since then! Anyway, hoping to get some new books to read since I'm out of suggestions from lists, friends and ratings. Ok, I'm done.
Hey Lauren - welcome to the group! You sound like you have caught the bug big time ~ swelling our ranks nicely! Hope you find some great new books in our shelves :D
Welcome Lauren! This group will certainly feed your love of romance! Enjoy! =)

Hello Romance Book Lovers! I have been looking for a book group for a while and think I may have found the place. I am a romance novel junkie and can't wait to participate in some buddy reads and challenges.

HI! I'm Amy. Been a member of GR for a while but just recently got more involved. I read a lot of books. Romance is at the top of my list. My husband calls them "slow bang" books. LOL

Hi Amy! I love that name for romance - though some are not that slow! I hope you have fun here! =)

So many books, so little time!!

I always use the challenges to find which of my many books to read next. Such a great way to pick! Enjoy, and feel free to ask any questions in the threads. Everyone is really friendly!
Hi! I'm Celia, but everyone calls me Cely!(Seh-lee)I have a lot of interests and I'm happy to say that reading is one of them. Besides reading, I enjoy traveling, playing guitar, listening to alt. rock. Some of my favorite artists include: Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Beatles, and Amy Winehouse. I also enjoy a good movie thriller...anything with a bit of horror or sci-fi is great. I really like anime as well. And I do A LOT of Netflix.
Anyway, I hope to expand my knowledge by reading, make some friends along the way and, as a result, expand my world. Happy reading!

Hi Cely! Great to have you with us :) I love alt rock as well, but most of my playlist is from the 80s and 90s (Nirvana and RHCP fit in nicely ;)
Everyone is really relaxed and friendly so just jump in to any of the challenges and check them out :D

Thanks Jane for the welcome! 80's and 90's rock is great! I'll be sure to check out the challenges!
Hi Nikole and Cely!! Glad you have you here with us! =)
Hi there! Have been a GR member for awhile but am starting to get more active! Have been a reader for umpteen years, and read almost only romance and romantic suspense for a good 10-15 of those years. In the past 6-7 years or so I've been splitting my time b/w rom and cosy mysteries (a real addiction), with a little paranormal thrown in. Haven't been part of a group for long while and really looking to do a lot of exploring here!
Hi Meg and welcome! I hope you enjoy your time here, feel free to ask any questions - everyone here is super nice and helpful!
Hey There! My name is Ashley and I love to read romance books and get caught up in the lives of each character I read about. I joined because I love discussing and seeing everyone's opinions on the books they are reading.
Welcome to the group Meg and Ashley!! I'm sure you'll both find plenty to browse. New monthly and yearly challenges to start on 1 Jan will be posted in the next week or so, so it's a great time to check out the threads!
Hi Ashley, welcome! We all love romance here too! =)
Hi, I'm Kiera and I've been a GR member for a few years now. I read all fiction genres, but have found myself reading a whole lot more romance over the past year, which has inspired me to become a romance author myself. I love the romance community, everyone is so accepting. Looking forward to interacting with everyone!
Welcome to our group Keira! Hope you enjoy this community and good luck with the writing :)
Jane (PS) wrote: "Welcome to our group Keira! Hope you enjoy this community and good luck with the writing :)"Thank you so much Jane.
Hi, well since I have no one to share my thoughts about books, this could be a great thing!
Hi Kiera and Monica! I think you both are going to fit in well here! =)

Welcome Heather!So many newbies! All of you, please ask questions if you have them - someone will jump on and help. Usually pretty quick, but this time of year, it might be a bit slower. =)
Hi! I'm Angela. I saw this group and thought this would be fun. I'm trying to read more for 2017. I gravitate towards romance because it's amazing but I like crime and mystery. However, I'm also trying to expand my genres. I'm excited to see what's gonna happen!
