Ange Hi all, I'm Ange & I just joined. I live in Los Angeles and am a former English teacher and book addict. I've actually just started reading romances during CA Lockdown and really love them. I'm looking for some great new reads.

Bailey (bailsreads) | 278 comments Hi everyone! I'm Bailey from San Antonio, Tx and I joined this group to connect with other Romance readers. I'm currently in school for Library Science while devouring as many books as I can get my hands on. This extra free time I've had during quarantine has me reading about a book a day, so I'm definitely in need of challenges and/or recommendations to keep my TBR pile fully stocked ;) Nice to meet ya'll!

Welcome to the group Ange! Sorry I missed your post earlier - you will no doubt find some great reads to offset the pain of lockdown :)

Jennybookfan | 5 comments Hi I'm Jen. Thanks for letting me join.I'm pretty much obsessed with all things romance, particularly paranormal romance and MC just so hot. Getting in to much more, office, like bilionaire, mountain and mafia romance, alsorts. I can't get enough. I have hundreds to read and sort through on my kindle, which is often glued to my hand at any opportunity. I don't like RH though. I am in the uk. I can't put one single favourite author or 3 favourite as I never really remember them because i read so much. Hopefully goodreads can help with that. I've read all Bella Forest and Tim O'rouke books. At least they spring to mind. Not bad for me to remember. I'll get better hopefully.


message 3517: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments Welcome to the group Jen! Hope you find a heap more books to feed your obsession! Of course, that will likely mean a little less in your pocket though ;)

Welcome Christine! I hope you have a great time finding new romances here :) I had no idea of the breadth of the genre until I joined GR; and then my book-buying just got out of hand ;)

Ruemie Gwan Hi I just joined but how do I use the groups ?


message 3528: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments Welcome Riana! Groups are nothing more than GR members who have come together with a common reading interest - in our case romance books.

This group simply has reading challenges that help you pick the next book you want to read 😊

The easiest challenge to start with in my opinion, is the monthly challenge. You can join any of the open challenges at any time, except the ones in teams. Team challenges don’t run for very long though, so if one interests you, it will probably pop up again in 6 months or so. Generally there is a team challenge running and a new one being planned in the background!

message 3543: by Laís (new)

Laís | 1 comments Hey guys! I'm Laís and I am from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I love reading romance. I have had Goodreads for years but have never really joined any groups. I also have the same problem of not having friends that also enjoy reading. I read pretty much any topic in the romance category, but have been enjoying lately rom-com. My favorite author is Jana Aston.


message 3544: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments Welcome to the group Lais! Jump on in anywhere! And hope you find some more great books here 😊


Connie (Rain Check and Read) (raincheckandread) Hello there, everyone! Call me Nikki. I've been on goodreads for awhile, but am slightly new to adult romance. I'm looking for others to connect with so I am encouraged to read more! I started my own blog to connect with the bookish community, so I am excited! I love all sorts of romance, but my favorites are fantasy and contemporary, so far. I am just delving into all of the categories. I do like Scottish Highlander romances though!


message 3546: by Jane (PS), Moderator (new)

Jane (PS) | 24347 comments Welcome Nikki! I think I read a heap of Scottish Highland romances when I first jumped on GR :) Loved the ones by Karen Marie Moning... Hope you find some great books, and even better chats in amongst the threads :)

The second book is the least impressive of the series in my opinion. I think I skipped it...


message 3549: by Amal (new)

Amal Hi everyone!!! I am Amalia and this is my first time joining a virtual reading group- not that I have tried out a real book club, like ever. I have always wanted to be a book club member in real life though, cause in books they make it sound really cool and sadly, there are no book clubs where I live- in fact, I don't even have many friends who are avid readers- and one thing I love as much as I love reading is discussing my ever-changing and ever-developing and ever-expanding list of favorite reads. Hopefully, I find people who share my tastes in this corner of GR, from where I am already getting excellent vibes (I am a listen-to-the-gut kinda gal).

Peopling isn't my best skill but I throw caution to the wind and forget myself if the language chosen for communication is books! Romance wasn't always my go-to genre but over time romance kept coming back to me and now, I am spoilt and won't have mediocre romances that won't curl my toes or make me sigh.

I prefer paranormal, YA, NA, fantasy, and chick-lit. Basically, anything fictional sprinkled with sweet romance, led by a swoon-worthy book boyfriend. I wish I can make great friends here and get excellent recs while I am at it!

Welcome to the group Amalia! Sounds like you just need to jump in and start chatting ;) Find a few common-interest members and then you can always set up a buddy read thread to get stuck into one particular book.

Feel free to join any of the challenges and start checking our bookshelves...
