[Emily]

Hello! My name is Emily and I love reading! I teach Kindergarten, which allows me to instill a love of reading into kids at a young age!

I have always gravitated towards young adult books, but also recently discovered a genre called new adult (I apologize if thats wrong!) that I'm learning to love to, as it's more so college age reads!

My favorite series of all time is Harry Potter, and I mainly am pulled towards romance books, however, since starting an account on goodreads, I have found challenging myself with different books and genres has been fun! Some of the book series I have enjoyed is The After Series by Anna Todd, The Field Party Series by Abbi Glines, any of Jenny Han's books, and the Pretty Little Liars series by Sara Shepard.

I have been a member for about 5 years, but didn't realize there were groups on here until recently, so I am excited to pick a new book each month to discuss with all of you!

[J.D.]

Hi, I'm Jenna.
This is my first group I'm joining so far as I'm still newer to Goodreads.
My love for reading started at a young age with R. L. stone's Goosebumps book as a kid.
YA books have continued to be my favorite for some time now and I can't wait to do some of the reading challenges in this group.

[Kahlia]

Hi, I'm Kahlia. I started reading YA way younger than I probably should have (The Princess Diaries gave me some really odd views as an eight year old), and continue to love YA despite now being in my mid-20s. My favourite YA novel is Six of Crows and as an Aussie reader, I have a soft spot for anything by Melina Marchetta or Jaclyn Moriarty.

Feel free to add me as a friend - I love seeing and discussing what other people are reading.

[Sushie || "To gain your voice, you must forget about having it heard" -William Ginsberg]

Hi Heather! My name is Cassie and I also work at a library! It really is awesome, isn't it?! Love for cooking and YA? We could definitely be friends.

[Tanya]

Hello! My name is Tanya and I'm 29! I am from Québec in Canada and I speak French. So forgive me for my English! :P I always read in English but I have difficulty to write it! I have an account on Goodreads since 2012 but it's the first group I am in.

I am obsessed to YA books. I had a book hangover for ACOTAR trilogy. I really liked The Ravens cycle books too and I am planning to read the Throne of Glass after Christmas. What I like the most is that it makes me dream when I am reading. It makes me feel so much emotions and everything is possible. The stories in YA books makes me forget the real world.

:) Bye!

[Kathryn]

Hi, I'm Kathryn. I love YA books. Mainly of the fantasy type; although, I have read a few romances lately. I've just self-published my own book. Being an author is hard work, you get less time to read. :(
Things you should know about me:
I'm blind, I'm from South Africa, I am addicted to coffee and jelly teddy bears, my favourite genre of music is powermetal, my favourite movie is Cool Runnings and Kingdom of Heaven. I have way too many favourite books to mention here, but some of them are: All the Harry Potters, Throne of Glass, all books by Leigh Bardugo, all Tamora Pierce books, all Mercedes Lackey books, the lux series by Jennifer l. Armentrout… okay I'll stop now. If you want to check out my author profile you can go here:

[Morgan]

Hello, I'm Morgan.
I am 28 and recently got back into reading after being in a slump for a few years. YA Fantasy/Sci Fi is my favorite reading genre, I'm also a big fan of historical and supernatural Romance. I do tend to prefer my stories to have somekind of romantic element even if it is not the main focus. I am also a big fan of anime, manga and Japanese or Korean webcomics. I have an entire bookshelf dedicated to strictly manga. I'm interested in getting more involved with the bookish community and look forward to making new friends in the group.

Favorite Book: Cress
Favorite Author: Marissa Meyer

Yes! There's also The Infernal Devices series after that and it kind of explains the backstories of some characters that are introduced later on. I definitely think you should continue the series!

[Kelly]

[Ruth]

[N.R.]

Erika wrote: "What's your name? Favorite book? Author?"

Hi, I'm Natalia Rose Wolfman. I can never choose what my favorite book is but it's a tie between IT by Stephen King and The Outsiders, though I'm mostly a horror geek. My favorite author though has to be Stephen King, his descriptions are fabulously written.

Welcome Natalia. :) I've read Pet Semetry from Steven King and really enjoyed it. Do you have any recommendations as to what other books of his I should try? :)

[N.R.]

Hey Erika, I've read a bunch of his works and really, you just can't go wrong with whatever you choose, it really depends on what you're looking for. I know that IT is really popular now thanks to the Muschetti adaptation and it makes a great time killer if you want a long term red. The Shining is good if you're okay with long expositions. If you are looking for a shorter read: Carrie and The Sun Dog are both very well done and generally short.

It really just depends on what you're looking for but if you just want to read some of his works, I'd recommend IT since IT is one of my personal favorites.

[Lotus]

Hi, I'm Lotus. I'm not sure what to say .. I'm not an author aha, I just love reading and I would love to hear your recommendations! I just finished the book Velvet and I can't wait to read Cashmere.

[ReneeQueen]

RenneQueen is my name, and reading is my game! I love a good YA fantasy and dystopian book, but I am one to really read about anything that catches my interest! But, when it comes to YA, a couple of my favorite series are Legend and The Lunar Chronicles. I hope to find some new series, in this group, that catch my interests.


As of December 25,2019 I have currently started Renegades by Marissa Meyer. Merry Christmas!

No, not yet but it is on my want-to-read list. What do you think of it?

[Heather]

Hello, I’m Heather. I’ve just joined at the behest of a friend. I’m slowly working through a rough bout of PPD and books have always been my safe space. I gravitate towards YA because they always seems to have a common theme of “hope” and , well, who doesn’t need that? I also like epic fantasy and the classics. Some of my favorites are Tolkien, JK Rowling, Jane Austen, Sarah J Maas, Tamora Pierce, Julie Kagawa and Robert Jordan. Looking forward to some good discussions and maybe making some new friends.

[Milla]

Hi, I'm Milla! I am 16 and live in Finland. I'm quite new on Goodreads and I joined here because I thought that it would be nice to track my future readings and get some book recommendations. Almost everything I read is YA and some of my favorite authors are Victoria Aveyard and Sarah J Maas. I'm currently reading The Greed from Scott Bergstorm.

[sam]

Hi I’m Sam! I’m from Florida and I joined this group to hopefully talk to others about YA books and hopefully make some new reading pals🙃 I’m currently reading The Diviners by Libba Bray but I’m also a huge fan of Sarah J. Maas’s books! 💛🤙🏽

[Rosalia]

Hi everyone, my name is Rosalía, I'm 26 and I'm from Spain. First of all, happy new year to everyone!!
I love, love, love to read, in fact, to be able to sleep at night I need to read a little bit (which it's a problem when I get house from partying at 6am 😂).
I think my favourite author changes when I read new books, but I adore Leigh Bardugo (Six of Crows is a delight), Marissa Meyer, Morgan Rhodes and Holly Black.
I usually read YA (duh), romance and fantasy.
I'm so excited to join my first group and meet new people =)

[Jeanette]

Yo my names Jeanette someone who usually plays games who decided to pick up a few books (might have been more than a few) and some manga. My favorite genre in anything is fantasy and out of the books I've read so far Six of Crows would be my favorite so far but hey that might change I've only read a few books (and I have a lot left) so who knows. Anyways nice meeting you.

Erika wrote: "What's your name? Favorite book? Author?"

Hi! My name is Ally and I'm 16. I'm really excited to join this group. TBH I can't pick a favorite book, but I love anything by Marie Lu or Cassandra Clare. I love the Shatter Me series, the Matched series, and am obsessed with Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter. I love pretty much any YA Fantasy books.

[Manon]

Hi, my name is Manon, I am from the Netherlands and 21 years old. I have always loved to read, ever since I was a little girl. Around my fifteenth, I started to write my own stories on Wattpad. My most famous story is in dutch and has a total of 1,4 million reads. I am currently working on finishing the manuscript!

I love to read young adult fiction, romance stories, funny and quirky stories, crime fiction and true crime. The crime books are mostly because of my interest in forensic science. I am a third year Forensic Science student in Amsterdam, one more year until I have my degree!

So that’s me!

[Kendra]

Hi, My name is Ariel. I am a huge ya fan and a book fanatic. My favorite books right now would have to be Sorcery of Thorns, Air Awaken's series, Throne of Glass series, and Acotar series. My favorite authors are definitely Elise Kova, Sarah J Maas, and Margaret Rodgerson. There are so many more but this is good for now, it's a pleasure to meet you all!
