Fatma | 4 comments Hey you all! I am Fatma from Turkiye i think i'd like to introduce myself :)

Birthday: 23 July 86
Favorite Color: turquoise
Favorite Food: anything came from sea :)
First Romance Novel Read (that you can remember): i am not pretty sure about that but it was a Turkish novel named "Calikusu" (Scrubbird )by R.N.Guntekin. It was social - drama and romance between rebellious and strong girl named Feride and her elegant and weak cousin Kamuran.
Favorite Romance Genre: Historical romances
I know I am a book addict because I've always bought books and put them to my "stash"(in my bags, under my pillow and my bed, my work place even in bathroom) for "emergency" :)incase, i need to get away from life, people and myself! and when it ends i've became closer with them (life, people and myself:))

message 1061: by Sherry (new)

Sherry Birthday: January 25
Favorite Color: Blue
Favorite Food: Mexican
First Romance Novel Read (that you can remember): Probably in my teens, L.J. Smith Vampire Diaries series. (IF you want a more "official" romance title, then Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake series. That started out as urban fantasy and then turned into romance. Imagine my surprise when she got down and dirty with Jean Claude for the first time in Killing Dance, and I that I like it!
Favorite Romance Genre: Paranormal/Vampires (I have been branching out with more erotica. It is kind of a hit or miss with me)
Finished the line: I know I'm a book addict because....I have a book with me at all times. I keep a running list of all the authors and series that I am reading so that I can keep track of all of the different titles. I was buying so many books that I finally had to sign up for Booksfree, which is like Netflix for books. Oh, and I don't have cable or internet in my apatment because I read instead.

Yz the Whyz (whyz) | 9327 comments Welcome to the group, Sherry.

Maybe after discovering GR, you will find that you will need Internet at home just to stay in touch. : )

Favorite Color: Blue
Favorite Food: Bread
First Romance Novel Read (that you can remember): Probably a Nicholas Sparks book.
Favorite Romance Genre: Paranormal

message 1068: by Amanda (new)

Amanda (daughterofoak) | 44 comments Birthday: July 21
Favorite Color: Red
Favorite Food: Fettuccine Alfredo
First Romance Novel Read (that you can remember): I only started reading romance about 5 months ago(I'm not counting the Anita Blake series), so it is pretty easy to remember. Sweet Liar by Jude Deveraux. It wasn't the best, but it whet my appetite for more.
Favorite Romance Genre: Paranormal, but I read a lot of historicals.
Finished the line: I know I'm a book addict because....I always max out my limit at one library, then go to a different town/library to check out more. I carry my currently reading book and a back-up in my purse and never go anywhere without them. I don't do anything but read, and have been known to walk and read at the same time. It's pretty bad, actually...my family thinks I'm a freak :)


message 1069: by Yz the Whyz, Moderator (new)

Yz the Whyz (whyz) | 9327 comments Welcome to the group, Amanda.

Also welcome to reading romance, although, as you will discover, we pretty much read other genres, too.


message 1070: by Robin (new)

Robin Amanda - I carry at least one book with me all the time. When we travel or if we go somewhere they might have to wait my children take a book. My husband is the same way. Traffic makes me nervous (9 times out of 10 I'm passenger and I much prefer it this way) so if we get stuck in any my husband and son tell me to read. : )
