[Marie Silk]

Hello, I am Marie. I grew up in a strict religious household that did not allow me to read fantasy and paranormal books; anything with magic was pretty much forbidden back then. Now that I am older I understand the appeal! I am too creeped out by anything zombie, though. And I love reading and writing YA. I used to write mainly comedy and adventure as short stories, but when I sat down to write my first novel, what came out on the pages had a lot more inner conflict of the YA variety than I expected. My books are a historical fiction/psychological fiction series that will soon be available in the author folder. I am new to goodreads (feel like I found the gold at the end of the rainbow that this website exists) and would love to make friends, so feel free to friend me! Nice to meet everyone!

[Josie]

I'm Josie, I LOVE the Percy Jackson series (both of them!), the Mortal Instruments, the Infernal Devices, and I'm planning on reading the Bane Chronicles :) I love paranormal books, I also like to read manga although I'm just getting into it. I almost always have a book with me! I once went a long time without a book and it was the worst time of my life! I seriously didn't know what to do with myself and just felt life there was this huge gaping hole in me.

[Isabella]

Hi!
My name is Isabella, I love reading. For me its a good way to escape, and i love 'living' in a different world for awhile.
Some of my favorite authors are Uncle Rick, Veronica Roth, Carol Goodman, Krestly Cole......( hopefully this list never ends)....
Favorite books, oh gosh it grows everyday. The Divergent series (even with all the deaths), Obsidian, Thirteen Days to Midnight, The Arcana Chronicles, Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, The Maze Runner, Throne of glass...
Also I'm new and look forward to reading so many books out of my comfort zone and maybe someday writing a book review blog!

[Shay]

No problem:) I haven't read Lady Midnight yet, but I want to. I've heard many different things about it. So if anyone else has an opinion about it go ahead and share.

[Shay]

I've read the Mortal instruments and infernal devices books. So it's okay if I have high expectations?

Lol, I would have to agree! I am a transplant from St. Louis, we have been here for 3 1/2 years and I love it, its so cute and quaint, always some fun festival including burger, bacon and wing fests HaHa its a smaller town than what I am used to and sooo many people here are outdoorsy that it can be intimidating sometimes. I work for Roanoke County Libraries so any time you are in town you should stop by, especially since you are a local author, it would be fun to get you involved with some of the stuff we do!!

My blog is at lovebookbook@blogspot.com so y'all can check it out if that sort of thing intrigues you. Umm I've been on goodreads since 2012, but I know almost nothing of the forums and other cool features i'm just finding out about now. XD
My some of my favorite books are Camilla by Madeleine L'Engle, Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell, Airborn by Kenneth Oppel, Across the Universe by Beth Revis, and, Love Letters to the Dead by Ava Dellaira.

[Rachel]

Hi, I'm Rachel. I live in northern BC, Canada in the middle of 85 acres with my six wild and wonderful kids.

I read out loud to my kids almost every night. We've consumed hundreds of books together--from The Little House on the Prairie books to The Lord of the Rings series.

Some of my favourite books are Ender's Game, Divergent, and The Giver. I'm currently reading The Book Thief.

Young adult is by far my favourite genre, and reading all those YA novels just naturally led to writing them.

My novel One Act of Defiance has won some awards, and I'm currently looking for an agent. It's an awesome and terrifying journey! My novel is about a young midwife of the future who risks her life on a quest for freedom.

My website is rachelmalcolmbooks.com if you feel like checking it out.

Cheers!

Even when I have had an account for a while, I'm still kind of new in all of these, so feel free to add me and send me suggestions on what to read next :)

[Cassidy]

Hi! Im Cassidy! I started falling in love with books a few years ago. My favorite books are almost all series except for The Fault in Our Stars. I love The Hunger Games, Divergent, The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer, Shatter Me, and The Fifth Wave. My favorite authors are pretty much all of the authors of those books!

[Luciana]

Hey Guys,
I'm Luciana. I'm totally guilty of prejudice because I'm a fan of Rick Riordan and in my opinion Nobody beats him. I just love how his characters grew up with his readers. It's like being friends with each of them. I love it.
I came back because I forgot to mention I'm a writer and I wouldn't like you thought I was hiding it. It's simply because Im not joining the group as a writer. I'm a reader since I was seven. Becoming a writer was a consequence. I do believe some writers will come out of this group. =)

[Ajay]

My book "from where i see" {goodread link- From Where I See} has been shortlisted for drunken druid award.
Thanks to readers for their support

[Kate G]

Hi! Im Kate, 23, Australian and I've been reading for as long as I can remember. I write fanfic and original fiction, listen to the Hamilton soundtrack on repeat, and read a lot. Considering the borrow limit here is 50, I've got some variety when it comes to YA.

My favourite book series in YA is probably House of Night, but I read anything paranormal, and I'm addicted to adult thrillers as well, and manga.

(And by as long as I can remember, I mean I used to fall asleep in bed while reading so Mum'd have to come in and lift the book off my face afterwards.)

[Dean]

Hello! I'm Dean, an American and I've been reading since the age of around 3. I try to write, but I am not great at it. My favorite series in YA is the Morpheus Road series, but I'll read literally anything. No joke, trashy romance, Lovecraft, anything.

[Caitlin]

Hi! I'm Caitlin. I read a lot and if I'm not doing that then I will be watching Netflix, crafting, writing, obsessing over some new fandom, sleeping or eating (chocolate preferably). Most people probably see me as a strange, pretentious nerd but apart from that... well there isn't much else to tell, really. Just kidding- there is tons more that i cant be bothered writing for the time being.
