Gabrielle (gabshi) You just have to wait a little while, Katricia. You'll get results. Goodreads is awesome!

Reese | 1 comments Uh hi I'm Reese. I'm 16 from the US. I like to read (oh is that a no "crap Sherlock" moment?) and ride horses. And oh gosh... my favorite book? That's hard! Umm I guess I have to go with three (because I'm a cheater): Catcher in the Rye (okay anything by Salinger), The Great Gatsby, and Looking for Alaska.
So hello new group! :)

Jessica (jessthemess456) | 3 comments I am Jessica, 21 years old from USA.

I can't choose just one book that is my favorite! I like all kinds of books. I like different kinds of books, but horror would probably be my favorite.

I have been crocheting for 3 years and knitting for less than a year. When I am not reading I usually am crocheting.

message 665: by Pamela (new)

Pamela (pamelamella) | 6 comments I'm Pam- married to a goodreads author. LOVE YA fiction- but tired of vampires... need adventure and action, strong characters and compelling stories to keep me reading. Favorite contemporary series / books include the Hunger Games, Harry Potter (all 7), Divergent, the Laketown Loners, Matched, I am Number Four, and recent discovery, "Chime". Classics like Les Miserable, To Kill a Mockingbird, and All Quiet on the Western Front make my lists too.

Abby Hey, my name's Abby and I'm 15 years old. I'm from the UK and the US, and - of course - I love to read. Some of my favorite books are the Harry Potter series, Hunger Games trilogy, and Agatha Christie novels. I pretty much like YA books and mysteries. I recently read a FANTASTIC book - The Day We Met. It may be my new favorite.

Haha, Agatha Christie is awesome! I've read the typical famous ones - Murder on the Orient Express, And Then There Were None, and quite a few Ms. Marples. She's my favorite, though I've read more with Hercule Poirot. What about you - which ones have you read???

I heard you have a blog about books- what is the site? I would love to read some of your reviews. My book just came out and I am going to try and start a blog/review on my website but I have no idea where to start! It is all very overwhelming. Maybe you could help me with some advice on how to make a noticeable website! Have a great day!Linked Through Time

They're pretty awesome - of your list, I read the first three, started the mirror crack'd from side to side, read the body in the library, and a murder is announced (one of my faves - along with and then there were none). Hickory Dickory Dock was all right, and Elephants Can Remember is a 'cute' Hercule Poirot. Wow, its cool that I've found someone who likes agatha christie as much as I do. The great thing is the books are never tiresome, and are fun for every person!

I really enjoy Agatha Christie as well! And Then There Were None is an obvious favorite, but I also enjoyed The Mouse Trap!

Not yet - he is serving a church mission and doesn't have his exact location yet (he'll fly into Oslo and then be assigned from there). But he's very excited to meet the people and have some "real" seafood (according to him):-)
