message 9654: by Nanribet (new)

Nanribet Cornelius | 3 comments Hello! I'm new here. My name is Nanribet Cornelius, and I enjoy reading good books like Ace of spades, or Carrie, Verity, anything that makes me sit on edge and read to the end. I love it.
My favorite book of all time is Carrie by Stephen King— because at the moment I read it, all I wanted was to connect with someone or something that might have felt the burden I felt at that moment. Carrie was everything I saw myself as and it made me realize how great I was.
Therefore, it's only obvious that my fav author is Stephen King, at the moment. There are more authors I enjoy their works, I just think Stephen King did something huge for me in his writings.

Scott Bischke (scott_bischke) | 1 comments Hi all,

Scott Bischke here. Long-time member of Goodreads, but only for the first time getting involved with Goodreads Groups, and new to this one. I'd love to find more folks to share reviews with.

About me (does anyone else who writes these intros just feel like writing, "Well, enough about me, let's talk about me!" ??): I love to read across a broad range of genres, but mostly I just love a great story! Here are a few genre's and examples that get me excited:

* YA / young adult (e.g., STARGIRL, THE FAULT IN OUR STARS  ... For the record, I have never been crazy about the classification "Young Adult" since many, many of the books in the genre speak equally to adults. I'd love a better classification, something more like ... hmm ... even just the simplest change:  how about "Young+Adult" books?);  
* beautiful stories with a heart (TO DANCE WITH THE WHITE DOG)
* allegory &/or books with a lesson (ANIMAL FARM)
* classics -- love DON QUIXOTE, MOBY DICK, Steinbeck, Hemmingway, and on and on!
* true adventure, usually outdoors (LOST CITY OF Z)
... and many, many more

If my love of YA and interests beyond match yours let's share reviews! Please add me & let me know to add you.

A final note: I am also a Goodreads YA author -- I have posted  about a giveaway and request for your input on my next book in the Author folder here.

message 9662: by D.L. (new)

D.L. Hammons (dlhammons) Hey everybody, I'm DL. I'm an author with two published adult books, but my first YA book is coming out this December. My favorite YA book is Boy's Life by Robert R. McCammon, which first came out in 1991. Not a popular choice, but one that got under my skin. The last YA book I read was The Agatha's - which I enjoyed tremendously.

I'm an avid reader and still get odd looks when people notice that I'm reading a "kids" book. I'm old school in that I still prefer hard back books, but have nothing against digital devices. Just need the tactile feel of a book in my hand.

Anyway...that's me. Stop by and Say HI if you get a chance.
