[Shalvi]

Hello! I am Shalvi. I am new to goodreads and hoping to meet some fanatic readers to talk about books!
I love YA, epic fantasy, thriller and historical fiction. I cannot pick a favorite author but I know I cannot go wrong when I pick up something by Brandon Sanderson or Dan Brown. My most favorite reads are Harry Potter (obviously!), Mistborn series, The Infernal Devices trilogy, Angels and Demons, Six of Crows duology!

I also make fanart of my favorite characters, so you can look me up on gram @shalodraws.

Haven't read It Ends with Us yet.

Hi my name is Megan. I am a very open reader so I have trouble picking a favorite genre, but I think right now it is fantasy. My favorite book is most often the last book I read! Also this is my first time being on a community.

[Ashlyn]

Hi, my names Ashlyn! I love reading the Harry Potter series along with the Divergent series and YA books. It’s hard to choose my favorite author because I have quite a few and am very indecisive so it’s hard to choose!

[stu]

welcomee!

[Megan]

hi Ashlyn!

Hi! And welcome everyone!

Welcome

[Andrea]

I'm Andrea. I've been on goodreads since like high school I believe. But just recently joined a couple groups. I think that has to do with the fact that I joined a group on another media site and I like interacting with other people about the same thing so I decided to do that on here. I love YA books, its really the only genre I read. They can be fantasy or dystopian or what I refer to as "real fiction" for example Sarah Dessen books. Although I favor fantasy/dystopian. I read as a way to relax and escape into that world.

I've read quite a bit of books. I can't pick just one as a favorite but I do have some favorite series such as Red Queen, Hunger Games, Divergent, Mara Dyer, and The Selection. I don't really have a favorite author either. As long as the book has a good story and pulls me in.

So check out my read list and if you've read them or want to read them, let's discuss it. Or if you like any of the series I listed above, let's discuss those too. Happy reading

[Mark]

[Alannah]

Hi! My name is Aprylnne. I love YA books and I read a lot of them. I have always loved reading books but I really found I loved Booktok and Booktube after I read KOTLC. My favourite books would probably be All the Bright Places, Renegades and Six of Crows. Some of my favourite authors are Leigh Bardugo, John Green, Rick Riordan, Laura Sebastian and more!

[Anini Niyu]

[Kerri]

Hi, I'm Kerri and I love to read (obviously) and also write. I studied an English Literature degree where I got to devour endless books and I got accepted to do a creative writing dissertation which was my dream. I've always loved YA and it is still my favourite, despite the fact I am no longer a young adult and in fact a mummy to two children now!

I know to many it might seem crazy but I really don't have a favourite book or author. It all depends on how I am feeling and what stage of my life I am currently in so it always changes. Reading the twilight series was a big deal for me when I was younger and I re-read them again this year and loved it. I also loved the Malorie Blackman Noughts and Crosses series. There are honestly so many I've read and re-read and I can't possibly choose.

Ever since I was young, I've suffered with anxiety (mostly social and health anxiety). Reading (and writing) for me has always provided the greatest escape and distraction and I know it always will be. While I've written and published a non-fiction book to guide parent's in helping their children who suffer from anxiety, I am currently working on a fiction young adult novel (which I have been writing for a number of years on and off) and I am nearly finished! The main character also suffers with anxiety and I hope the book will offer comfort and support for those who suffer from anxiety and awareness and understanding for those who don't.

I am always on the look out for recommendations and look forward to getting to know some of you better!

[Megan]

hi Kerri, i have anxiety as well and reading always helps me to!

Sorry to hear you have anxiety too. Feel free to reach out anytime you need to.

still in school trying to figure out what to do with life xd

[Amy]

I'm a single mother of 3 awesome kiddos, whom I love more than life itself....however... it's not always easy to like them! Lol. Reading is my saving grace! 0n those days when the kids don't want to do their chores, or when they won't quit arguing, or refuse to listen to me...Reading takes me to another place. I'm able to escape to another where fairy-tales are real & the problems aren't mine! I definitely love my books!

[[deleted user]]

Hi, I'm Elisabeth and I'm from Germany. Not only do I love reading, I'm also on a constant hunt for special editions, signed copies etc.
My favourite books are Shakespeare's Hamlet, Stoker's Dracula, Six of Crows by the wonderful and talented Leigh Bardugo, Sorcery of Thorns by Margaret Rogerson and House of Salt and Sorrows by Erin A. Craig. And though not listed among my favourite books of all time, I still want to mention Christina Henry as one of my favourite authors, because every book of hers I've read so far was really enjoyable and I'm definitely going to read her other works as well.

[C.M.]

Hi I am new on here. Just had my first book published. It is a YA urban fantasy so very excited.
I read just about anything so some recommendations would be marvellous.

[Steph]

Hi! I'm Steph and I'm excited to meet you all! :)

[isabella]

Hi, my name is Bella and I live in the UK.
My favourite book changes all the time but it’s usually one of these: 99 days/9 days and 9 nights - Katie Cotugno; I’ll give you the sun - Jandy Nelson; black ice - Becca Fitzpatrick; or Frat Girl - Kiley Roache.
My favourite book series has to be the Wolves of Mercy Falls series by Maggie Stiefvater. I love the humour and Cole St Clair.
My favourite authors are Katie McGarry and Maggie Stiefvater.
I tend to live at my local library as I can’t afford to constantly buy books!!
My favourite genre is most probably YA romance (typically contemporary), however, I do love a good fantasy novel (*coughs* From Blood and Ash - Jennifer L Armentrout).

[Desiree]

Hi! I'm Desirée and I love to read. My favorite author is Anne Bishop and my favorite book, in this case series, is The Black Jewels Trilogy. My go-to genre tends to be fantasy. I was in a reading slump for a good couple of years but recently found my love for books again and currently I've been reading The Shadow and Bone Trilogy by Leigh Bardugo.

[reader]

Hi! I'm Giuliana! I love YA books, as they take up a majority of what i read...I love really any good book that I can get into, whether it be fantasy, mystery/thriller, dystopian, or anything in between. Some favorites of mine include: "The Book Thief", "The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue", "The Chemist", "The Outsiders", and the "Darkest Minds" series. I have read "The Chemist" by Stephanie Meyer probably ten times, even though my tbr is really long. I really love Alexandra Bracken books, John Green, and Victoria Aveyard books. Really, I just love YA books in general.

[Megan]

Hey everyone!

I think I may have wrote here before but I’m really keen to get to know some new people and make some bookish friends.

I’m 24 and from England.

I love fantasy books, I’m especially a sucker for enemies to lovers troupe and anything with a royal influence/setting.

Would love for some people to jump into my inbox and start up some new conversations :)

[carmela]

My current favorite books are the Six of Crows duology. I love the writing style of Leigh Bardugo, Jenna Evans Welch, Morgan Matson and JKR (not the person, just the writing.) Please feel free to send me a friend request or give me any recommendations! I love having bookish friends <3

Hey! My name is Kenzie (she/her) ! I recently just got back into reading and just trying to make some cool book friends and find great books to read :). I’m 21, freshly moved out on my own and planning on going back to school in the fall. I love mystery, contemporary, romance, and historical fiction! (Ps.

i’m hoping to make some new friends and discuss books!

[J.B.]

I'm a YA Paranormal author, but I also LOVE reading YA books. I do tend to gravitate toward paranormal stuff, but I also like thrillers, horror, mysteries, fantasy, and some dystopian. I confess to loving all the big names: Rowling, Riordan, Stine, Collins, etc.

The book that made me love paranormal/horror (and probably ultimately led me to writing in that genre) is JANE-EMILY by Patricia Clapp. It's a period ghost novel, and I read it when I was about 10...after that I was hooked on the spooky stuff!

I promise I read the author rules!

[Mikala]

Hello!

I’m Mikala. I’ve always been a ‘nose-in-a-book’ kind of person, I think I’ve loved reading since I was a kid. But, I’m just getting back into it after a major head injury five years ago (I couldn’t focus on the words long enough). I’m a huge writer and I’ve been writing since I was young as well. I don’t have a specific genre I love to write, but my favorites are definitely Romance and Fantasy. If I had to choose a genre to read though it would definitely go to fantasy.
I’m a huge nerd, I love everything Marvel, Star Wars, and any other major franchises you can think of. I think the original Star Wars trilogy is a masterpiece and my favorite Marvel movie is definitely ‘Iron Man’. I’m also a gamer, and while I don’t have the ability to play many games (Mac user over here) I always feel happy watching others play them.
I’m glad I get to be in a community that enjoys things I enjoy because I have struggled to pick my head up out of books for long enough to make friends with similar interests. I’d love to be friends with you, shoot me a message and I’d love to talk to you!

Mikala

[Emma]

Hi all :) I hope that you are having a lovely Thursday :)
I am a self published author of ten books - all of which can be found right here on Goodreads, as well as Amazon and my website / blog www.emmalbealauthor.com

My Thursday so far has consisted of:
Discovering that the fridge freezer has died over night and all of our food has defrosted (more upset about the ice lollies to be honest).
Research for current work in progress.
Ordered a new desk and chair (very much needed).
Eaten waaaaaaaay too many crisps (they are my weakness).
and last but not least: I got dressed - hee hee - I work from home so it's not required normally - is it?

Have a lovely day :)
Em.

[Daphne]

Hi I'm Daphne! I'm 23 and trying to get into YA and NA books that are now more my type as I get older. I love fantasy and romance and anything that combines the two. Some of my favourites are ACOTAR, the From Blood and Ash series, and The Blood Song by Anthony Ryan. I am really loving the more adult fantasy style books so please anything like the ones I've mentioned I'd love some recommendations!

[Ciara]

Hello everyone! I'm Cece, and my favorite kinds of books to read are young adult fantasy. I'm not sure if I have a favorite author, but one of my favorite book series is The School For Good And Evil.

[Megan]

Hi everyone, I’m Megan! I’m 22, I’m from Scotland and I love reading (of course lol). My favourite kinds of books are thrillers, mysteries, YA, contemporary and sometimes horror! I’m currently reading The Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware. I’m still fairly new to goodreads and I’m hoping to make friends who love reading as much as I do! If you would like to be friends or discuss books feel free to send me a request or message me!! :)

[Adam]

Hello, all! I'm Adam, aspiring author and lifelong lover of books. I love YA and NA because no one does fantasy and adventure quite as well. I couldn't possibly pick just one or two favorite authors, but I'm always on the lookout for more, so bring on those recommendations!

[Charlize]

Hi I'm Charlize! I love to read (haha of course) But I've always used goodreads to read reviews and am now discovering all these other benefits. At the moment I have taken an interest to romance and fantasy and really anything with the two. My personal favorites at the moment are the "From Blood and Ash" series. I am really looking forward to getting some good recommendations on some YA books as well! :)

[elmiathebookaddict]

Hi everyone, I'm Elmia! I'm a teenager from South Africa and I love reading and writing. My favourite genres include YA, speculative fiction, contemporary, thrillers and sometimes non-fiction - I'm not really picky when it comes to books. I'm currently reading 7 different books (all for different reasons lol) and my TBR list is so long that I might not live long enough to read everything. I'd love to make more book-nerd friends on here, so if you think we might have something in common feel free to send me a friend request!

[Brian]

Hello everyone,

My name is Brian Mayfield, I am 21 years old, and I love reading YA novels. My favorite YA? That's an easy one, Rot & Ruin by Jonathan Maberry. It's set in a post-apocalyptical zombie-infested world, and follows two brothers who, over the course of the book, learn to love and respect each other. It's a great book!

I'm also looking to find others to chat with!

[Prior Eaton]
