Ellen | 7 comments Hi, fellow book-lovers!
I just recently re-discovered Goodreads, so here I am again. I am a 17 Norwegian girl, loving the great outdoors as well as meeting new people/seeing new places. This summer I'll be traveling as an exchange student to beautiful New Zealand.
My favorite books include The infernal devices, the lunar chronicles, every Rick Riordan book and a lot of other great stories! Looking forward to getting into this group again!

Chandler Brett (chandlerbrett) Hello, Fellow Readers!

My name is Chandler. I have a wide array of reading interests. If I limit the list to YA books. I'd have to list Orson Scott Card as my favorite author, particularly Ender's Game. But I also have a great love for animal fantasy, which seems to blossom at the YA stage and die out in the adult books section. So Redwall, Warriors, Guardians of Ga'hoole, Dogs of the Drowned City, etc. These are the books I like. And you might be able to tell that in my book (Wolf Code). But I also like legal thrillers, so I'm pumped about Grisham's Theodore Boone books too.

ℓуηη_σƒ_νєℓαяιѕ | 85 comments Hiya everyone! I'm Lynn. I've been on GR for awhile, but only recently joined this awesome group. I love, love, LOVE YA books! To me it just seems like the authors put more thought into an engrossing plot. They're just awesome. I can't really name a favorite book because I have so many, and I often re-read them. But obvious ones are the Harry Potter series, Morganville Vampires (all of them-totally awesome), The Host, Percy Jackson & the Olympians, The Infernal Devices, and non-YA series are Game of Thrones, Chicagoland Vampires. Favorite authors would be Rachel Caine, Chloe Neill, JK Rowling, Rick Riordan, Cinda Williams Chima, Lynn Kurland -- just to list a few :)
Genres, I love sci-fi/fantasy the most, but also love historical fiction, dystopian, and the occasional mystery.


message 4566: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (anoriginalcreation) I'm Amanda, I love to read! I am nearly 34 years old, but still love to read YA. I tell people that I will start reading from the adult section when I'm... and I'm still not old! I don't have a favorite book, I read too many to really say what my favorite is. I love Fantasy, Dystopian, Coming-of-age, Historical Fiction, Romance.. basically I will read anything that is well written.


message 4567: by Sammie (new)

Sammie Hi fellow YA geeks! I'm Sammie.

I've been on GR for ages, but have only recently started looking at the groups. I don't have a favourite book (it's too hard to choose) but I'm currently reading the last book in Patrick Ness' 'Chaos Walking Trilogy' and I'm absolutely blown away!

Does anyone blog? I've just started blogging again and it'd be cool to chat to some fellow YA book bloggers. :)

message 4570: by Kelly (new)

Kelly | 8 comments Aloha! I'm Kelly and I love YA. Might seem obvious but I'm not sure what genre is my favourite yet so I'm reading a little bit of everything. I also love classics. My favourite book so far this year is These Broken Stars. Can't really pick a favourite author just yet but I'm working on it!


message 4571: by Claire (new)

Claire Hi all :) I'm Claire and have been reading YA for years. There are so many amazing authors that I can't choose just one favorite and they are always changing, but right now a few are Marissa Meyer, Kiera Cass, Cassandra Clare, and Alexandra Bracken. I've only read Passenger by Alex Bracken but I ADORED it. I've been unable to pick up another book since I finished! What a book hangover.

I'm hoping that joining a GR bookclub will get me out of my book hangover and back into the world of YA.

message 4576: by Mike (last edited Mar 03, 2016 07:36AM) (new)

Mike Shelton Hi, my name is Mike. I have been reading books for almost 50 years (yes that makes me older than many of you!) and enjoy all sorts of genre's, but tend to always fall back on fantasy / YA fantasy as I love reading about young people coming to grips with their destiny, exhibiting magical powers, and becoming heroes. Recently I published my first YA fantasy book, The Path Of Destiny, and am working hard on the sequels.


zoha (A book maestro) | 28 comments Hello, I am Zoha and I like to read books ( very good books ).

Currently I'm reading the Lunar Chronicles and i LOVE THEM!! It's an awesome twist on the fairytales and I'm so glad my students introduced me to them :). Which is one of the reasons why I read YA books. It makes for awesome conversations in class!!!

message 4584: by Nicole (new)

Nicole  (dodidoe624) Hi I'm Nicole and I have been addicted to reading since I learned how to. I started with paranormal YA when I was still really young, gobbling up ghost stories and vampire stories like it was life itself. I am still hopelessly drawn to a good paranormal! My favorite book in this genre probably The Host by Stephanie Meyer, I reread it once a year. I am still understanding how Goodreads works, and this is my first group I have joined. I am a Librarian in Roanoke VA and that fills my need for a daily book very well :)


message 4585: by Tyler (new)

Tyler Aument | 3 comments Hey I'm Tyler, and I've always loved to read, but I've only just begun to read large quantities of books over a short span of time. I find it very difficult to choose a favorite book or author because every book I read is a wonderful experience for me. But if someone asks me what my favorite book is, I will usually respond with a book I've read recently, or I might respond with all of The Throne of Glass series so far because Sarah J Maas crafted a truly amazing world with those books.


message 4586: by E.A. (new)

E.A. Graaf | 2 comments Hello!
My name is Elizabeth and I am fairly new to Goodreads, but I love books! JK Rowling is one of my favorite authors, I think HP 7 is probably one of best books I have read. But one of the best things about reading is being able to always discover new authors!


message 4587: by Bec (new)

Bec (becbentliff) Hello, I'm Becky, I have always loved reading, especially YA, and more specifically fantasy, dystopian, historical and sci-fi books. My favourite books are constantly changing, but at the moment they're probably the Throne of Glass series & a Court of Thorns and Roses both by Sarah J Maas, Deathless by Catherynne M. Valente, and Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo.

I've been on Goodreads for a while now but am only just really getting involved with the community side of the site and am really interested in becoming more connected with people who enjoy the same books as me, so feel free to add me! :)


message 4588: by Jazmin (new)

Jazmin  (jxzmin) Hi! my name is Jazmin. I just recently got hooked on reading a lot of different books though I've never really considered myself much of a reader before. Now I've realized that books are euphoric and I'm pretty much addicted lol.

Right now, I'm really into YA dystopian books! I also like reading horror, thriller, and adventure books. My favorite books so far are the Unwind trilogy by Neal Shusterman and Crimson Bound by Rosamund Hodge. Some of my favorite authors are Rick Riordan and Neal Shusterman. I'm looking forward to reading more and find which types of books suit me best!


message 4589: by Grace (new)

Grace (markedforcourt) Hiya I'm Grace and I literally just joined this site yesterday! I've always really enjoyed reading. I'm really into urban fantasy, YA (that's why I'm here haha) and dystopian novels. My favourite books are the All For the Game books and The Raven Cycle books, and my favourite author is Maggie Stiefvater (not 100% sure I spelt that right but oh well).

Shuu Hi I'm 20 years old and I've written my own Romance-Thriller short story (originally for my girlfriend).

Follow the story of Fia and Alexander through present and past events, as one is getting closer and closer to avenge the other's.

The link for it is-
