[Alia ~you are not your anxiety~]

Hi, I'm Alia, and I'm so excited to be joining this group! If you asked me what my favorite "unique" book is (aka not Harry Potter or The Hunger Games) I'd have to say The Giver by Lois Lowry.

I'm constantly reading YA "dystopian" novels. Name one and I've probably read it. I dislike when the characters are carbon-copies of other ones that have been done in the past (if you had to sort every character into 'like Tris' or 'like Katniss', you wouldn't come up with many who don't fit into either, and as much as I like Tris and Katniss, I love unique characters. Regardless, I still pick up carbon-copies against my better judgement. ;)

Nice to meet you all!

[Brandon]

Hello everyone!

I'm not sure why it took me so long to find and join this group.
My name is Brandon and I live in Boston, MA. I joined Goodreads in 2010 and slowly became increasing active on the site.

I'm in Graduate school but spend any free time that I have devouring a book. As cliche as it is, J.K. Rowling nourished my love for reading at a young age. I have too many favorite books, but feel free to check out my list.

I've preferred physical books to e-books until I moved to Boston and realized how many books I had, the space that they took up, and how heavy they all were! I love my Kindle but still purchase hardback editions of favorite reads.

[Paige]

Hi Everyone! I'm Paige and like everyone else here I love reading. My favourite authors include Pierce Brown, J.K. Rowling, Leigh Bardugo, Morgan Matson, and many more!
I'm also a newbie blogger and a writer. So if you guys want to talk about all things reading and writing, lets be friends and exchange recommendations!

[Charlie-Anne]

Hi everyone,

My name is Charlie and I'm from Australia! This is the first book group i've joined also.
I've always loved reading since i was little and have recently been struggling to find time for it due to full time work. I thought joining a group might help me keep up my passion through discussion and like minded people, even when I can't read.

I'm a newbie so take it easy, but i'd love to talk to people passionate about series etc. Also any recommendations for good series/ amazing stand alone books and feel free to ask me for anything!

Thank you! :)

[Eranio]

Hi everyone,

I am Eranio, and this is the first group I ever joined in Goodreads. I have been reading stories since I was a little kid and never stopped since. I love finding great stories in any medium, which led me to so many great things to enjoy including comic books, movies, TV series, novels, video games, light novels, magazines and much more.

I have so many favorite authors (and great writers in anything I stumbled on) and I can't list them all, but a few of them that I like now are Rick Riordan, Christopher Paolini, James Patterson and Orson Scott Card.

Best regards everyone, excited to be here. :)

[Funky Fish]

Hey there, Alia, Sushant, Caitlin, Manon, Kailey, Sarah, Brandon, Paige, Charlie and Eranio! It's great to have you guys in the group! :D

[Savannah]

Hi everyone! My name is Savannah. I have so many favorite books but a few are the Harry Potter Series, Looking for Alaska, Every Day by David Levithan, and anything by Cassandra Clare!

[Fatima A.]

Hello every one! :)

My name is Fatima, and I'd have to say Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix (the entire HP series, maybe?). My favourite authors are Rick Riordan, VE Schwab, CS Lewis, and Edgar Allen Poe.

[Melissa]

Hello, my name is Melissa! I'd have to say that my favorite author is Jane Austen and my favorite book is a tie between Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility, but I really love YA as well. Fave YA series would have to be Harry Potter, and I really enjoyed the Hunger Games as well. Lately I've been reading the Lunar Chronicles and The Winner's Curse series and I've been really enjoying both of those!

[Sonal]

Hello everyone,

My name is Sonal, and I read a lot and in a wide variety of genres. I have far too many favorite authors to be able to list them all. Recently, I've been reading books by Andre Norton, Jeffrey Farnol, Baroness Orczy, Eugene Sue, and Charlotte Yonge.

I look forward to finding new books to read in this group.

Great to meet you all!

[Mariah]

Hey everyone! My name is Mariah and I have never considered joining a group before so here I am now giving it a whirl. I read almost everyday and from many different genres. YA is one of my favorites and I look forward to finding and discussing new adventures!

The list of Authors is long but currently I have been on a Lauren Oliver kick.

Great to be here and can't wait to see where it takes me!

[Isabella]

Hi, my name is Isabella. I don't especially have a favorite book or author. The book that really got me into reading was Harry Potter.

[Alexia]

Bonjour! I'm Alexia.
Before commencing to introduce myself, I'd like to address the slightly misleading opening--No, I don't speak French. Not even remotely.

I like reading light romance/chick lit (a.k.a books with pink covers) and contemporary romance. It's a good way to relieve your over emotional side and to reduce stress.

Current favorite books are: The Hating Game and Paper Princess.

No favorite authors. Forgive me, but Cassie Clare and I never clicked.

[Funky Fish]

Hi there, Savannah, Fatima, Melissa, Sonal, Mariah, Isabella and Alexia! Welcome to the group, guys! :)

[D.J.]

Hello, fellow bookends! I'm DJ and a complete fanboy for Laini Taylor, Stephenie Meyer, and Leigh Bardugo—and many more, of course! (You can't really choose just one favorite, right?)

I'm a twenty-something New Yorker by way of the midwest. By day I'm a marketing coordinator for St. Martin's Press (Griffin Teen!) and when I'm not at work, you can find me reading, listening to music, in a Pinterest rabbit hole, or wandering the city with my camera in hand.

Aside from YA, I'm a romance junkie and I don't mind a nice literary novel here and there, as long as there's a bit of magic in it, like The Night Circus or The Book of Speculation. As long as my YA has kissing, I'm good to go. I do tend to read more fantasy these days, but I'll gladly read contemporary tales if they're in the vein of Stephanie Perkins, Jenny Han, or Gayle Forman.

I'm not a super active group user on GR, but it's always great to meet other YA readers and see what everyone else is reading (or not reading). If you'd like to follow me on social media, I'm @LifeinFiction on most platforms, including Twitter and Instagram.

Happy reading, everyone, and I hope you're all doing well!
