Hadi (queenhadija) Hey, I'm Hadi :)
I enjoy a lot of different types of books, but when it comes to YA, I usually read fantasy. Some of my favorites are the Raven Cycle, Six of Crows duology, the Diviners series, Strange the Dreamer duology and the Shadowhunter chronicles.
I'd love to get to know someone who's also read Cassandra Clare's books because Chain of Gold is released in March and I am so excited!!!

Neus (neusfigueras) | 20 comments Hi,
I'm Neus, a marine scientist and author from Spain.
I would say Harry Potter, but it's very difficult to pick just one :p
I've written a YA science fantasy novel to help to protect our planet because I'm an optimist and I believe we can change for the better.

Sigrid Boggan Hi Everyone! My name is Sigrid. Gosh, I really can't name a favorite book of all time. Too much pressure, lol. I really just started reading YA and instantly became addicted to it. I really like the Selection series and am currently reading the Wayward children series. I don't have a favorite author but I've enjoyed the works of J.K. Rowling and Stephanie Meyer.

Molly (ottbean) | 11 comments Hi, I'm Molly
I am currently focused on reading YA LGBTQ+ fiction, partially for the enjoyment of seeing more and better representation and partially for research. I enjoy most YA books though I am not one for Fantasy very often.
I'm currently writing a YA novel about a girl who falls for a transgender boy.
IDK if I can even think of a list of my fave authors off the top of my head but I just read Zenobia July and it was awesome!

One of my all time favorite YA books is Extraordinary Means by Robyn Schneider (not LGBTQ focused but an awesome read).

Hi, I'm Amiya and I am such a big book nerd. I am gonna love this group! I have read so many YA books, and I always can't wait to get my hands on to more. I try to read as much as I can and I love sci-fi, dystopian, and mostly anything good that is not non-fiction. I will try to be a very active and attentive member of this group, but I am probably a little bit younger than most people in this group - just FYI. (I am 12)I have too many favorites to name one, but here are some of the best. Divergent, The Hunger Games, and Matched. Those are the top couple but I have so many more! Some of my fave authors are Marissa Meyer, Rick Riordan, J. K. Rowling, and like a hundred more. Thanks and bye!

message 6320: by Julianna (new)

Julianna Underwood (juliannanicole) | 2 comments Hi my name is Julianna and I just recently got back into reading and am somewhat new to goodreads. The book that made me fall in love with reading was Where The Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls. I had to read it in school when I was a kid and I honestly didn't like reading too much but once I started that book I couldn't put it down. Going into high school vampires were definitely my thing and Twilight was of course one of my favorites lol. I started reading The Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare a while back ago and now one of my priorities is to finally finish the series.

message 6324: by もち ー ♡ (new)

もち ー ♡ (mchrds) | 1 comments hello everyone!

my name is yasu or mochi, depending on who you're chatting with. i'm, obviously, a massive fan of books and after a hectic year and finally having everything settle down, i've found myself crawling back to one of my favourite communities.

slowly but surely, i'm reworking my blog so that i can reincorporate book-ish things back into it; so no fancy links to share just yet.

that said, i like books that are written well, have good characters and development (whether they are the protagonist or the antagonist,) and leaving me wanting to submerge myself into the worlds created. genre isn't really a big deal; however, i do sway more towards poetry and ya the most. i don't have a favourite book because there are too many but some of my favourite authors are stephen king, edgar allan poe, s.e. hinton, anne rice, rainbow rowell, and john green.

i hope i get to meet some cool people and find out about interesting books while here. 🌱♡
