Lindsey  Rietzsch (lindseyrietzsch) | 3 comments Hi!

I'm new to the group and excited to be a part of this group! I love to write! I'm a blogger, full time mom of three, songwriter and entrepreneur. Life never gets dull!

Also I'm 32 years old and an author of three books! I released my first Young Adult fiction novel - The Realm - today and I'm excited to say that it's FREE on amazon from today until Friday. It's a book that's actually based on true events that happened in my family. I wrote it for my dad and it's been a special experience! I would love for you all to check out and give it a review. Here's the link

message 2077: by Jess (new)

Jess (jessanstuff) | 7 comments Hi! I'm Jesenia and I'm new to Goodreads. I've had an account for a while, but not much has been done until now. I looooove to read (reading is extremely addicting)! My favorite book never stays the same. I'm currently fan-girling over The Mortal Instruments (Cassandra Clare) and the upcoming book Champion (Marie Lu). My favorite author also changes from time to time. I'm looking forward to being in this group :D


message 2078: by Sam (new)

Sam Hello!! My name is Sam. I love to read everything: mystery, fiction, sci-fi, romance, YA. Love Matthew Quick, Cassandra Clare, Veronica Roth. I play soccer 24/7 and use reading to relax. My favorite part of the day (when I'm not playing soccer) is when I go to bed and get really into a book that I stay up until 1AM finishing it. I love getting lost into books and forget about my surroundings. I am a generally quiet person and books allow me to hide in a corner and disappear into a world that I am only allowed to enter. I don't really post a lot but I constantly read through the groups looking for books I can become obsessed with. So yea, that's me!! Thanks for paying attention and reading this! Feel free to friend me. Always looking for great recommendations!! :)

Kim V. Lehman (authorkimvlehman) | 2 comments Hi everyone.

My name is Kim. Excited to join the group.
A little bit about me... I'm a dog lover, wife, friend, sister, writer, author, Pinterest junkie, foodie, wine-o, and YA bookaholic.

Hmm... my fav book? It's hard to choose one. I'd have to say it would be between The Help and The Hunger Games (even though The Help really isn't considered YA).

Favorite Author by far is V.C. Andrews for reasons that relate to my childhood. Judy Blume is a very close second.

Looking forward to connecting with everyone!

message 2100: by Joseph (new)

Joseph (mccannx) Greetings and salutations,
My favorite genre is fantasy, but I haven't been able to find too many exciting new works. Classics like Tolkien were great, the first couple Robert Jordan books were great, Wizard's First Rule was
fun.
Non-techie sci fi.. I like The Adventures of The Stainless Steel Rat, Deathworld, Ender's Game, and Callahan's Crosstime Saloon. I like good adventure stories of any genre, including Winterdance, Seabiscuit, and recently I have been getting hooked on YA because that seems to be where the most exciting and innovative writing is happening (Hunger Games, Divergent, MazeRunner, etc.). I am working on a fantasy book as time allows, and will start a
book blog soon.

Feel free to stop by and check out my booklist or drop me a friend request, I am fairly new to the Goodread's

neighborhood.

http://www.goodreads.com/mccannx

Best!
Joe
