Hey Alice you are so lucky! I can't get enough of her. I just bought The Infernal Devices so I'm going to start reading them soon but I have recently bought loads of books just can't make up my mind what to read first lol. Finishing the Fallen series but I feel it is really dragging.

message 4309: by Jingle ❀彡 (new)

Jingle ❀彡 (jingledarling) Hello, my name is Jing Xuan but for short people call me Jingle. I love reading, especially YA and the classics. My favourite book is A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett and (please don't shoot me down for this like all my friends do) I love the Twilight series. I actually read it a year ago after the craze was over as a joke, but then I got completely sucked in and it lead to me be more interested in YA. Nice to meet you and I hope we can be friends!

message 4318: by Camille ☼ (new)

Camille ☼ Hello, my name is Camille and I decided to join the group because, well, I love YA books! And it would be a shame not to share this love. Choosing a favorite book or a favorite author is always so hard. In the YA genre my favorite author is probably JK Rowling, because I really can't put anything over Harry Potter, it would feel like cheating. Recently though I really loved the Mortal Instruments series, and Cassandra Clare! :) And I'm reading the Lunar Chronicles right now, which I really like !

Soo, nice to meet you guys :)

Vi ~ Inkvotary (inkvotary) | 0 comments Hi, my name is Vi. I am from Germany where I write reviews for a german website. I am an avid reader, read books in english, dutch and (of course) german. To my great shame I havn´t yet introduced myself proberly to this group - although I am kind of active here since Oct/Nov 2014. So sorry for my bad behavior and that I forgot my good manners. I can´t promise that I will comment here on a regular basis, but I love YA books for sure and if I know a book you´re talking about, I will say something to it, if I have something to say....

best wishes
Vi

message 4326: by Katyslibrary (new)

Katyslibrary (katyslibr) Hey there, my name is Katy. I'm new to goodreads so I'm not sure how it all works yet so bare with me if I'm doing anything wrong! I love YA and fantasy as well as crime and romance. Some of my favorite authors are James Patterson, J.K Rowling, Cassandra Clare, Nicholas Sparks (who I got to meet yay!), Neil Gaiman, lemony Snicket(from my childhood days! Haha) and I know I'm blanking on others! Currently on my shelf to be read in the next few weeks are The Forever Song by Julie Kagawa the last book in her Blood of Eden series, The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern, Throne of Glass by Sarah J Maas, and Cinder by Marissa Meyer! This past month I finished See Me by Nicholas Sparks, The Immortal Rules and The Eternity Cure by Julie Kagawa from Blood of Eden series :)


message 4327: by [deleted user] (new)

Hi! I'm Olivia. I read mostly YA but also some MG. Some of my favorite series are Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas, The Mortal Instruments and The Infernal Devices by Cassandra Clare, Percy Jackson and Heroes of Olympus by Rick Riordan, Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling, Sweet Evil by Wendy Higgins, The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer, and Anomaly by Tonya Kuper. Honestly, I probably forgot a few. XD oops.

I met Rainbow Rowell on October 29th and Tonya Kuper and Lydia Kang on the 21st of this month. They were all super nice.

I haven't read a lot of the series/books that are popular in YA right now, like ACOTAR, The 5th Wave, DOSAB, The Grisha trilogy, Six of Crows, Miss Peregrine's, or The Raven Boys. All of them are on my TBR, but there's 230 books on there altogether so I've gotten a bit distracted. It's safe to say I've got plenty of things to read for a while. XD

I can't really think of much else to say. I know I've made my comment really long, so I think I'll just stop here. ;) Although I do have a book blog that you can check out if you're interested. https://heirofglitter.wordpress.com/ :)

I hope to have a lot of fun with this group, and make lots of new bookish friends. :)

Allison Steadman Hi I'm Alli. I'm new to goodreads so I'm probably going to mess up a lot as I learn. I love YA and it is so hard to my favorite book or authors. I would have to pick Rick Riordan and Marissa Meyers as my favorite authors and of course I am in love with their books. Though I also love the Selection series. At the moment I am reading the I am Number Four series and am currently on the second book. I also read random books that I pick up at the library. I hope you will all bear with me as I get used to goodreads. :)

It gives me plenty of opportunities for reading but it also makes me wonder if I'll ever get through them all! I tend to add 5+ for every book I actually read.XD

message 4348: by Sandi (last edited Dec 06, 2015 08:57AM) (new)

Sandi | 6 comments I'm Sandi, from Wisconsin (USA). I'm a bit out of the usual demographic for YA books (I'm 47), but I'm an avid reader of many different genres, and there are a lot of very well written YA books out there. Also, I like to give books for gifts, and I have a 13-year-old niece who happens to love to read. A few of my favorite YA authors and books include John Green, Rainbow Rowell, Madeleine L'Engle, the Hunger Games trilogy, and the Australia "Tomorrow" series, which began with Tomorrow When the War Began. I like a pretty wide range - I count both Orson Scott Card's Ender's Game and L.M. Montgomery's Anne of Green Gables among my all-time favorite books.


message 4349: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer (jennifer_as) | 8 comments Hi my name is Jenny and I am 14. I only started reading on a regular basis about 6 months ago. I'm love any type of book that is dystopian, fantasy, or fiction. Book genres that I dislike include nonfiction, some comtempory, and sci-fi. Some of my favorite books are: Mortal Instruments, infernal Devices, Harry Potter, Vampire Academy and The Hunger Games. Some of my favorite authors are: Cassandra Clare, Kiera Cass, J.K Rowling, Richelle Mead, Rick Riordan, and Suzanne Collins. I try to read 1 book every week. Sometimes this is easy for me to complete and sometimes it is difficult. My reading goals for 2016 include reading 52 books (one each week) and possibly starting a book tube channel. I love doing book reviews right after I finish a book. My reviews tend to be lengthy so that I can go back a see what I thought about a book. Feel free to add me as a friend on here! Happy Reading!
