message 1904: by Ariella (new)

Ariella (ariellah980) | 4 comments Hi I'm Ariella! I read YA books. I'm always reading or finding new books to read. My favorite author is hard to choose since I have a lot of favorites.


message 1905: by Christina (new)

Christina (christinacourtenay) | 5 comments Hi everyone, I'm Christina. I love romance so any YA books that involve a love story, Happy Ever After ending and great hero is fine by me :-) My favourite authors so far - Sarah Dessen, Meg Cabot and Melissa Marr.


message 1906: by [deleted user] (new)

My name is Libertad and i love YA fiction, especially fantasy and dystopian. Although i prefer to explore diverse and multicultural themes i'm pretty open to what i read, as long as the leading lady isn't stereotypical.

message 1908: by Marie (new)

Marie (pinguin3) | 9 comments Hi,my name is Marie and I am from germany, so be patient with my english. I am probably too old for YA and I am happy that with eBooks I don't have to go to shops where girls in their teens look at me like I would look at a man in the women's underwear section of the department store.
My favourite book? There are many, but from the newer ones: Harry Potter, everything from Cassandra Clare, The Hunger Games and last year's favourite was 'Angelfall'.
And my all time favourite: Trapcatch from Marion Zimmer Bradley. Pretty unknown, but beautiful!
Favourite Authors: David Eddings (not YA, but could be), Cassandra Clare, Chelsea M. Cameron
I probably have more, but can't think about any right now.

I'm Charlotte. Just got here about one minute ago. I liked the little picture there is at top. I've read/want to read quite a few of them!

Ria (mariaya) | 26 comments Hola! My name is Maria, I'm 13, Canadian, and vegan. I LOVE YA books, but my interest's go far beyond that. I like to read Fiction, Sci-Fi, lil bit of Fantasy, and lot's more... My favorite book is Divergent by Veronica Roth, followed by The Host by Stephanie Meyer. Fave series is The Divergent Trilogy (obviously) And I've read The Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini, started the Lord Of The Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien... And just recently got my library card so now I can read endlessly (though it's wayyy over due) First book I've read from the library is Wake by Robert J Sawyer (I've read the whole trilogy though)... I love reading so much that if I got a good book I'll stay up til 5AM reading without realizing (My dad gets up at 5 and makes coffee so that's how I know I stayed up to late - or to early - It's kinda my alarm clock) And sadly I usually finish the book the morning after I start it if the book has 600-800 pages. Then I can't stop thinking about it for the next two weeks, It gets so distracting that I can't focus on the next book I want to read so I have to wait til I can think of something other then the really good book I last read. I could go 3 days without eating or drinking anything and not notice (I bet I could go longer but I always finish the book before I can test that theory) Books are seriously my life, so far I went zip-lining off 100 story buildings, fought a dragon, almost got my mind taken over (or almost taken over someones mind, depends on what side your on) born blind and gained sight, almost fed to half-bird-half-human-full-evil baby thingys, traveled across the dessert without water or food and sooo much more that I can't even list. Now I made a huge message that I didn't even mean to, and I barely write O: Except when it comes to books like... Nevermind. This message is supposed to be ending now... Adios amigos!(;

message 1913: by Rach (new)

Rach | 2 comments Hi, I'm Rachel,

I like to read, almost kind of obsessively and it can scare me at times when I realize that I have nearly read through nearly the entire day. My favorite books, I love The Hunger Games and Harry Potter. Another book that I absolutely adore would have to be Paper Valentine by Brenna Yovanoff. I fact, she's my favorite author, besides J.K Rowling and Suzanne Collins and all those perfect people. So, I guess that all talk to you all around, hope to have some good discussions about books and meet all you lovely people. <3

Jolene | 10 comments Hi! I'm Jolene, a girl from California. I like reading, but I feel like have no time anymore. The books that have made me the most emotional would be The Sky IS Everywhere by Jandy Nelson or Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver. It's really hard to choose a favorite book, but I like the Gallagher Girls Series, TMI, TID, Harry Potter (!), Revenant Series, Caster Chronicles.....I'm excited to be part of a book group, since I've never done anything like it before!

Brandon Ax | 12 comments Hi I'm Brandon and I would say J.K. Rowling got me into YA. Half-Blood Prince is still one of my favorite books. Loved Eon and the hunger games series. I was reading some of the Darren Shan books as well. I am an author my first novel just went up on Amazon this week.

Amanda Reynolds | 2 comments Hi everyone, I'm Amanda! I love fantasy fiction especially ones that involve a different world.

message 1922: by Brandon (new)

Brandon Berntson Hey, everybody, I'm Brandon, a writer, a reader, a frickin daydreamer. I love horror, fantasy, and yes, some young adult. Currently I go through this phase when I just love YA stories and don't want it to end. Currently I'm reading the Wizard of Oz for the first time, along with Grimms Fairy Tales. My favorite YA book though, is probably, at least so far, the Wind in the Willows. Truly enchanting.

message 1933: by [deleted user] (new)

Hey everyone how's it going? I'm Garrett and I love YA books like everyone else here. My favs are Paper Towns and Looking for Alaska (by John Green, who is my favorite author) All 3 of the Hunger Games, and Thirteen Reasons Why. Going to start The Maze Runner soon, also The Book Thief. If anyone has suggestions for ones you think I'd like based off this short list please message me them!!! Im always looking for new ones to add to my bookself. Have a great day!


message 1934: by [deleted user] (new)

What's your name? Favorite book? Author?


My name is Guinevere Thomas =D
I'd have to say my favorite book is very far from my current taste in books. IT by Stephen King. I honestly dont have the stomach for horror books, but i read this when i was 11, and then again 3 years ago, and for some reason it always sticks with me ;p

I dont really have a favorite author though.

My name is Amy, and I'm an avid reader (obviously) and writer. I enjoy all genres, but I love YA the most. It's my "comfort food". If I'm tweeting, it's usually about books or music @AmyRolland!
