Hi, I'm Mario and I'm an author

[cerreads]

Hi, my name is Cerra and I'm a bit new to Goodreads! I started using this app last year, put it down for a little while and then picked it back up earlier this year when I began reading more often again. I have always been an on again off again reader, but am hoping to remain on, now that I know just how endless the book world is! I would love to meet new people and be part of a reading group where I fit in (hoping it is this one!) I do not have a ton of time to read, so sometimes that sets me apart, but I do love to sit on my days off and try to finish a book in one sitting haha. Currently I am challenging myself to finish my physical TBR before buying any new books so we'll see how that goes. As far as my favorite book, it would have to be The House in the Cerulean Sea, I absolutely ADORE Lucy! Anyways, happy reading and I hope to get to know some of you!

Thank you!

[yzzy]

Hi, I'm Ysabel. I'm a teenager and I really love diverse characters in books. My favorite book series is the Unwind dystology by Neal Shusterman. Two of my favorite recent reads are Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo and The Obsession by Jesse Q. Sutanto (I love powerful women portrayed in books).I love to read but barely have the budget to buy new books so I usually just read the ones in my school library. I hope that I get some new recommendations and favorite books from this group! :)

[Katelyn]

Hello everyone! My name is Katelyn and I have just joined this group (obviously)! I am very interesting in Young Adult Fiction. I just got finished reading the first book in the Stalking Jack the Ripper series!

Overall, I have read Cassandra Clare, Sarah J Maas, Tahereh Mafi, and more authors of the like! Please feel free to message me to talk about books! I would love to get more recommendations to add to my shelf. :)

[Aleck]

Hello. I'm Aleck and I have a very bare Goodreads account, lol. I am 32 years old, a single mother, and work in a library. My serious relationship just ended and I realised that I have no identity, this was especially made clear when my therapist asked what my hobbies are. I realised that I, ironically, haven't read books in a long time. My favorite has always been YA, although I do not like fantasy so I find it difficult to read a lot of recent YA (at least the ones my system purchases). I am really not a fan of sci-fi/dystopian books either. (Do you see my reading issue here?) My favorite movie genre, however, is horror, so I am going to try to make the cross from "realistic" YA to another venture. My favorite book always has and always will be The Perks of Being a Wallflower. I do not have a favorite author, but I am particular fond of David Levithan's Will Grayson in Will Grayson, Will Grayson. That is another favorite of mine. I joined this group because I wanted suggestions and knew this was a place that would at least give me a few as I try to begin this again.

[Gaurav]

Hello everyone!!! I'm Gaurav, 19, nice to meet you. I'm from the heart of India, Delhi.
I have always loved reading books, being an avid reader for the better part of 5yrs. I stopped reading for a few years due to various circumstances and other modes of entertainment but now I've again ignited my passion for reading.
My favorite books currently are Lord Of The Rings and the Monogatari series.

[Mia]

Hi, my name is Mia :) I enjoy a wide genre of books and it's really hard to pick my favourite genre but i think i have to go with fantasy. Some of my favourite books are City of Heavenly Fire by Cassandra Clare, Woman in the window by A.J Finn and The Way I Used to Be by Amber Smith. I know they seem a bit random but I just love exploring new topics and different writing styles.

If anyone would like to be friends feel free to drop a request for any reccomendations and reviews!

[Sofiya]

[Sydney’s Novel Lists]

Hello everyone,
My name is Sydney , my favorite book right now is between the Crave series, ACOTAR series, and Anything Stephanie Garber! Favorite author 🤔 that’s a hard one 😔

[Kritika]

hello everyone , I'm Kritika, i got into books during the pandemic period , I used to read only sad books with no happy endings , I used to like how much those books could make me feel with such intensity uk?, so there should be no doubt my favourite one is "A little Life" .
but now I'm moving towards other genres as well , like I've started Acotar for fantasy and Colleen Hoover books for romance. So yeah that's it.

[Gabbyyy]

Hi! My name is Gabby and i just got into reading recently. My favorite genres are fantasy and romance. Books about Faeries are some of my favorites! I hope you all have a good day or night!

[Sarah]

Hi!! This is Sarah. I got into reading recently. I love reading Fantasy and Romance books. I have just finished the ACOTAR series and Cruel Prince series too. I am looking forward to It Starts With Us by Colleen Hoover.. And yeah, I can speak French..

[CK]

Hi, I am an author of MG/YA fantasy adventure and paranormal cozy mystery short stories, novellas, and novels. I have a couple romances out there, but they are erotica and not genre appropriate for YA. Everything else I write is aimed at being fun, engaging reads for young and old alike. Including the occasional sci-fi. Most will have some kind of historical notes woven in.

I love the classic epic fantasy adventure most when reading. I covet going along the journey of overcoming great odds and beasts to win the day. That's me.

I adore listening to audiobooks, and cozy mysteries are my favorite. But Terry Brook's Magic Kingdom of Landover is probably my favorite for fantasy. Maisie Dobbs, by Jacqueline Winspear is my all-time favorite cozy.

I am 68 years old and began my writing career back in 2017. I am a semi-retired horse trainer and massage therapist by trade. I have one daughter grown with two grandchildren with whom I spend a great deal of time.

I am on Goodreads to promote my books but also to network and make friends with similar reading interests. That, and I want to learn what YA readers want. What do you read or wish you could read?

Thank you for allowing me to join.

[wendyc]

Hi, my name is Andressa :) I used to read a lot when I was younger but then I got into a hiatus for a few years. Then last year I started reading The Love Hypothesis and it got me into reading again.

Some of my favorite books at the moment include the ACOTAR and TOG series (huge sjm fan here), The Mortal Instruments series and anything that's a greek mythology retelling *rereads Song of Achilles for the 4th time and sobs*.

Feel free to message me! <3

OMG THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS!!!
Have you read Neon Gods?? It's a Greek Mythology spin off

[Veronica]

Hi! I'm Veronica (Wow who would have guessed), I'm 20...and I fell in love with books when I was 7, thanks to Brandon Mull's Fablehaven. I mainly read fantasy, ya and whodunits, but I also try to read another genres from time to time. Besides, I love everything related to medicine (and I guess I can be sometimes annoying bc I'm pointing out everything that is incorrect from the medical point of view... yeah a student life broke me in some way).
Anyways, feel free to add me as friends (I'll obvsly add you back) ☺️

[Johanna]

Hi everyone! My name is Johanna and like all of you, I love reading 😀 currently reading Tell Me Everything but it’s not engaging enough for me so I might DNF to avoid a book slump. I love romance and thrillers. Feel free to add me 😀

[Fred]

Hey. I'm Fred (not Frederick or Alfred, just Fred -- I was named after reclusive "great uncle Fred" who died shortly before I was born and nobody knew his full name, so in honor of him, I was named just Fred - the name of the pet turtle in nearly every story that has a pet turtle).

I'm joining because I love to talk about books - writing styles, story crafting, themes, dialog, character development. I'm kind of a story crafting geek. I love fun, whimsical fantasy stuff. The kind of book that takes you into a delicious fictive trance where you laugh and shudder and cringe and cry and make new friends. That's why I write. I absolutely love the artistic challenge of creating that sort of experience for a reader. Some of my favorite books are Septimus Heap, Shadow and Bone, Wrinkle in Time, The Alchemist, The Book Thief, Fault in our Stars, Golden Compass and yes, HP. I'm way past teen years, but I love the beauty and simplicity of these books.

Curious: is this a group where I can ask opinions about how I've crafted a scene, character, new creature or section of dialog? I'm always looking for feedback.

For instance, the kind of thing I'd like to ask is "Do you like it when authors step into the role of poet-narrator or would you rather they just stick to action and dialog, staying closer to the mind of the MC?" Example:

"His eyes ran over the ornate serifs and twirls of the words while a breeze rustled the leaves dangling over the gravestones. An owl hooted in reply, serenading the thin clouds sliding in front of a low, large moon like a flock of ghosts."

Too poetic or helpfully atmospheric?

[Clara]

hi I'm Clara
I love reading, writing, listening to music, anime and Formula 1 (my favorite driver is Charles Leclerc) ;)
anyway, my favorite book is the hunger games.
my favorite things to write are poetry and flash fiction. I love anything descriptive and atmospheric, from video games to books to movies.
my favorite anime is Death Note and my favorite Netflix series are Arcane League of Legends and Money Heist

[Charlotte]

Heyy, I'm Charlotte. I love reading, writing, running, and that's pretty much it. My favorite book is Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo and I'm a huge fan of sci fi/fantasy and young adult books. Favorite authors include Shannon Messenger, Rick Riordan, Leigh Bardugo, John Green, and a lot, lot, more, but it would take too long to list them 👍

[Mia]

Hi! I am Mia. I'm from India. Loving and hating some books with passion are two of my few expertise. I read more books than I own and I am always down for a buddy read. I own a blog, and it's doing the best it has ever done. I am a mood reader and currently in contemporary phase. For me, first impression of the book, almost always, is the last one, so if I think would hate it within first few pages, I probably would. I have been Dnf-ing a lot lately; YOLO and I'm dying soon. Alice Oseman, Ashley Herring Blake and Taylor Jenkins Reid are some of my favorite authors. And the only author I do not like and potentially will never read from, is CoHo.

I would love to make some friends here!

Hi my name is Olivia and I love YA novels. I don't have a favorite author because I liked to read a little bit of everything but I am currently really into mysteries and thrillers. Also, because it is October everything I am reading this month is either spooky or mysterious, or has to do with witches, vampires, ghouls and the like.

[Nawrin]

Hiii! I'm Oieshi, I love reading ya books more but these days I feel like reading all the genre out of my comfort zone. I was in huge reading slump for almost a year, hence I read few books this year only, also things got complicated so I deleted my previous Goodreads account, now building this account from the scratch and I actually regret deleting the previous one :(


And my most favourite genre is Fantasy, my absolute favourite author is Leigh Bardugo, and this year I added Taylor Jenkins Reid to my auto-buy author list!

[Sydney]

Hello! My name is Sydney! I’ve been getting back into reading more recently. I let it fall off my list of priorities for a while, but I’m back to a book a week! I’m not sure currently who I would call my favorite author, but I LOVED the Caraval trilogy. I have also enjoyed some Naomi Novak books as well! Fantasy is definitely a huge go to genre for me but I’m trying to branch out to some contemporary books as well.
