Sounds like you are going to fit right in - we all love our romance too. =) Lots of challenges around to get new ideas and start discussions too. We even have a couple where you recommend books to others. Hope to see you in one or two soon and don't be afraid to ask any questions!

Erika Maki Hi, my name is Erika and I am 24 years old. I love reading YA, and its many subgenres, but I've recently become interested in New Adult and Contemporary Romance within the past couple years. I am new to reading challenges, but they sound like a lot of fun. I also hope to make many new friends in this group.

MountainKat | 31805 comments Welcome Erika! I'm sure you will lots of ideas for new books and have fun with the challenges! The problem I have is too many new books - I can't find time to read them all. =)

Jane (PS) | 24353 comments Welcome to the group Erika!! Challenges are a great way to start up a chat and find books in common with other members - this will of course increase your need for to buy books, but that's just how the cookie crumbles ;)

Enjoy!

message 2769: by Tina (new)

Tina (kejej) Hi.
Ive just joined the group.
I like reading just about everything - at the moment Im going through all books by Julia Quinn (if you like Jane Austen, check her out!).
Other than that, Im a sucker for romance, and read just about everything I can get my hands on :)


message 2770: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24353 comments Welcome to the group Tina!! Sounds like you will fit right in. Jump in anywhere and ask questions if you need more information :D


message 2771: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31805 comments Hi Tina! I'm working my way through Julia Quinn's Bridgerton series now that the audios are finally out! I like historical romance more in audio - really, I like everything better in audio! I'm really enjoying them! I hope you have fun here! =)

MountainKat | 31805 comments Welcome Raine! We have a folder for questions like that HERE. There are some guidelines in this THREAD. I hope that helps! Hopefully someone will be able to point you towards the book you are looking for!

Jane (PS) | 24353 comments Welcome to the group Raine!! Hope you find someone to help you with that book you are trying to track down :)


message 2775: by Jesuit (new)

Jesuit | 1 comments hello everyone, i just joined. what is the best trending romantic novel? i want to read one but i do not know which one to start with


message 2776: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31805 comments Hi Jesuit, and welcome! I'm not sure what would be the best trading romance right now - do you mean bestselling? There are lot so lists and everyone probably has a favorite. Depends so much on your taste. What type of book are you looking for?


message 2777: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24353 comments Welcome Jesuit! Like MKat said, there are so many different sub-genres in romance it would be hard to pick without more information on you reading tastes. I'd suggest you browse Goodreads lists on the most read books this week. I'm on my phone so can't provide links...


message 2778: by J.L. (new)

J.L. Hinds (avidreader86) Hello, my name is Jennifer. I love to read any type of book that grabs my attention. I like to read a range of different genres. My favorite, however, would have to be romance. I love getting sucked into the romance of the story and sometimes imagine myself in that situation. I look forward to being apart of this group and reading along with you all. :)


message 2779: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31805 comments Welcome Jennifer! The one thing that we have in common in this group is that we read and love romance, but a lot of us read other genres too! Most of the challenges are flexible enough to fit any book into, only a few stick closely to romance. I hope you enjoy yourself here. =)

Jane (PS) | 24353 comments Welcome to the group Jennifer! Hope you find some interesting books amongst our shelves :)

message 2784: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31805 comments Hi Kelly! I have no idea why your post didn't show up when I commented last time - looks like I was about a half hour after you. Oh well, glad you are here too!

It is still early in the month, most of the monthly challenges can be joined at any time and backdated to the first! Don't be shy about jumping in!

Diane Dannenfeldt | 815 comments Hi everyone, I'm Diane and I joined cause I'm always looking for new challenges and new books to read, even though my tbr shelf is overflowing.

MountainKat | 31805 comments Welcome Diane! The overflowing TBR is a common problem here... And it only gets worse!

Welcome to the group Diane! I can't help looking at 'shiny and new', even though I have plenty of 'current and available' at my finger-tips ;)

Frances Zunino (francesdianazunino) | 3 comments Hi, everyone...I joined this group because as a avid reader of anything romantic and some other genres, as an hopeful author and writer; I am always looking to immerse myself into stories that will pull me away, help me see how others write and think and also to be a critic and judge my own critic. This is the first time actually letting myself join a group and be more active in what i love: words, thoughts and stories like my own.


message 2790: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24353 comments Welcome to the group Frances!! Hope you find lots of chats/books to engage your mind :) I love seeing what others are reading.

MountainKat | 31805 comments Hi Frances! Glad you found us here and I hope you find what you are looking for. =)

I tend to find more books that I can possible read... =P


message 2793: by Lorien (new)

Lorien | 16 comments Hello, I joined this group looking new books and maybe some authors I haven't tried. Also just wanted a place I could talk a little bit about the books I've read and enjoyed.
I love the idea of the challenges, it sounds like a lot of fun to do.


message 2794: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24353 comments Welcome to the group Lorien ~ you've definitely come to the right place. Some challenges are more active than others with the chat, but there are also the 'What are you reading' and 'best/worst book' threads as well.

Challenges for next month will open over the next week or so, but there is still plenty of current month/quarter/year challenges to check out.

Enjoy!


message 2795: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31805 comments Hi Lorien! And welcome. =)

Jane gave you some good starting places, but feel free to ask any questions you have - her or in other threads. Everyone is very friendly and helpful, so you should get an answer pretty quick! Be warned though - challenges are addicting! In the best possible way though, what could be wrong with reading more books?!


message 2796: by Scarlett (new)

Scarlett Ian (scarlett_ian) | 160 comments Hello - I love to read and I'm always looking for new authors & books to read. I like reading challenges that encourage me to branch out and read more (or maybe tackle some of my tbr list..)

:)


message 2797: by MountainKat, Moderator (new)

MountainKat | 31805 comments Hi Scarlett! Welcome - I think you are in the right place! =) Except the challenges have a habit of making your TBR grow and grow rather than shrink.

Welcome to the group Scarlett!! As Kat says, you've certainly found a place that helps with new books and authors ~ once you see what others are reading, your TBR inevitably grows :D
