Hello, I'm Lenna (Len)! As far as addictions go, YA isn't too bad of a choice. I have minor obsessions with Rainbow Rowell, Celeste Ng, John Green, and Orson Scott Card. Don't even get me started on J.K. Rowling's genius.

Hello everyone. I'm Natalie and I'm new to goodreads, so I'm still learning to navigate everything. I've always loved reading. My favorite books are definitely dystopian novels. Hunger Games is my favorite trilogy. I absolutely love Catching Fire! I loved reading the Harry Potter series growing up as well. Some of my favorite authors are Suzanne Collins and Veronica Roth. I'm always open to new recommendations!
Hey everyone, my name’s H’Onorine, I’m 21, and I’m from Melbourne, Australia. I got into Goodreads so that I could track everything I read and connect with like-minded people who share the same passion for books, good writing etc. Haven’t found my favourite book yet. Love reading books by Nikita Gill and Gemma James. I usually read books about war, broken homes, mental illnesses - any kinda affliction tbh. Until I recently discovered my growing appreciation for dystopian, romances, and YA fiction. I stayed away from them for so long bc I thought they’d be really cringe but they’re actually not so bad. Always open to book recommendations so, if anyone has any please don’t hesitate to hmu xx
Hi, all! I'm C.K. Donnelly, a YA Fantasy/All Fantasy author. I just launched my debut novel TRINE RISING. Not all blessings are gifts...mwhahaha.While other kids read comic books under the covers with a flashlight at bedtime, I wrote Star Wars fan fiction and fantasy stories. I became a journalist, and was honored with several press awards for business and economic reporting. I've also worked in healthcare, and currently run my own freelance writing and marketing support firm. I live in Arizona with my oh-so-patient husband and my little black dog (who is equally patient). I no longer write under the covers by flashlight. Usually.

Hello! I am Jazmin! I am ADDICTED to reading. I literally read all day. I admit I do it during classes, teehee ;). I like reading books that are like A Court of Thorns and roses, Throne of glass, The Red Queen, The Selection, (you get the idea). So I like reading YA romance with some high fantasy and fiction. I often look at fanfictions and different memes about a series that I'm reading, and I sometimes even stay up reading until I fall asleep. I also LOVE looking at fanart. Let me know if anyone has any book recommendations!

Hunger Games is my ..."I deleted my reply earlier because I got the name of the series wrong (I know, terrible), but if you love Hunger Games, then I HIGHLY recommend The Testing series by Joelle Charbonneau. This series is very similar to the Hunger Games series, and it's AWESOME with some twists!

Hello! My name is Callie Marie. My favorite book (ik it's cheesy and somewhat a trashy book) is the Selection or Hunger Games! I love Cassandra Clare, V.E Schwab, Rick Riordan, Sabba Tahir, and more!
Hey everyone, my name is Indy. So far I can’t really say what’s my favorite book because it’s just so hard to pick only one! So I’m going to say that the Throne of Glass series definitely makes the cut as well as the arc of a scythe trilogy and the infernal devices! From here you can probably guess my favorite authors are Sarah J Maas and Cassandra Clare! I’d totally recommend Serpent and Dove by Shelby Mahurin. If you liked the Throne of Glass series, then definitely pick this book up! I would love to discuss more about it with someone !
:)

Helloo my name is Sena, I dont't have a specific favorite book but if I would tell my top 5 they would be: Lunar Chronicles, the Young Elites triplet, the Vampire Diaries by L.J. Smith, Romeo and Juliet, Chess. My favorite authors are Marissa Meyer, Richelle Mead, Stephen King, Marie Lu, Suzanne Collins and last but not least Lauren Oliver. And the list would probably go on and on but let's just finish it here :)

Hello, everyone! My name is Beca, I am originally from Dallas TX, but currently live in Krakow, Poland.
I've always loved to read since a little girl, and have recently picked it back up again these last few years. During this pandemic time, my boyfriend and I have taken it upon ourselves to build out a new book swap platform, called SwapReads!
I love fantasy, sci-fi, historical fiction! I LOVE LOTR, and really enjoyed the Red Rising series. I just finished Dark Age a few days ago - such a crazy ride that was! I did a post about it here: https://community.swapreads.com/t/dar...
I recently have gotten more into YA, I totally went through ACOTAR books super quick! Love the story!
When I'm not working on SwapReads or reading, I like to play video games, do some kind of art & craft or watch a good tv series (The Wire is one of my faves!).
Can't wait for all the YA recommendations!
Hi everyone!! My name is Rachma. I love reading!!! But then i stopped, because i like watching movie more:(This year i really want to try again to make a good habit to read more. So i join this group, who knows it may help?
By the way, i have no problem to anygenre, anyauthors. It helps me to explore more. But mostly i like fantasy, romance, and mystery. And i can't "move on" from Fire and Thorns Series by Rae Carson and The Wrath and The Dawn Series by Renee Ahdieh. It was so good!
Sorry for the bad grammar, it's not my native language
Thank you, I'm so happy to be here!!!
