Rach We all want to know about our members here. I am sure we will have things in common so lets share!

Well let me formally introduce myself. My name is Rachel, I am (now) 22 years of age. I live in the greater Los Angeles Area, California. I am the biggest non-city girl living in a rather large city herself. I am studying English Literature and Comparative World Literature. I want to teach, and travel and write. Create things, all that jazz.

I love reading- hence why I made the site at the ripe ol age of 19. I have put myself in the head of so many authors and I needed a way to reach out to people who shared the same passions as I.

:)

message 11: by Rach (new)

Rach YES I have read Twilight. Loved them. The movies didnt do them justice though. But the books were amazing


message 12: by cazdoll (new)

cazdoll Yes they haven't I agree :) same as Harry potter films, well most films that are good books never do the book justice :)


message 13: by Rach (new)

Rach That is so true! I mean some aspects of the movie somewhat play out nicely but other times I am just like, "What?" Hahahah But I will definitely read the Potter books because I loved the movies


message 14: by cazdoll (new)

I've always loved to read, and while I've been busy here lately, I still make time for it when I relax in the tub at the very least.
My favorite books are of the paranormal kind.

message 34: by Jackie (new)

Jackie Hi there! My name is Jacquelynne Lennard, but you all can call me Jackie :) ... It's easier to remember and spell lol. I am a 22 year old student and work-a-holic, who is studying History and the Medieval and Renaissance Studies program at Brock University in Ontario, Canada. I work at a non-profit theater group in N-O-T-L and during my free time at work, at home and school I read to me hearts content, lol. I am addicted to the sun even though I burn to a crisp every time I'm outside, and I love to swim. Basically me in a nutshell, lol.

I am an avid blogger as well, and my blog is called, the Hardcover Harlequin :) the link is: http://hardcoverharlequin.blogspot.com/

I am ecstatic to be part of this group!

Hello Jacquelynne! (Going with Jackie from now on...just wanted to spell it once. That's a very unique spelling)
Welcome to the group, I'm glad you decided to join us!

Looks like you're very busy and have a wide range of interests! How do you ever find time to read??

I love swimming too. I was on my high school's swim team and I miss it a lot. Unfortunately though, I burn to a crisp when I go outside too.

If you let me know your tumblr, I will check it out! I have a tumblr and a blogger! Glad to have you!


message 40: by Thalia (new)

Thalia http://www.thaliasbooks.tumblr.com

I haven't been reblogging as many pictures as I have in the past, only because the new tumblr freezes all the time and I'm lucky if my reviews even post. It's been driving me crazy!

Welcome!! Glad we'll get to discuss and see your book choices! I'm an avid blogger as well, and have a blog on blogger.com come by and check it out and I'll be dropping by yours soon to check it out as well :)


message 47: by Thalia (new)

Thalia I wish I understood blogger better, or had one. I have blogs from other people bookmarked but they'll never know I'm actually looking since I can't follow, hahaha.

Blogger is great. It is definitely a more personal type of blogging. Tumblr can be personal but what i see is reblogging and a lot of pictures.


message 49: by Thalia (new)

Thalia Yeah, that's why I like it so much, I think. In between reviews and posts, when the blog seems to lag, you can still keep people entertained with really pretty pictures that still relate to the subject of your blog. I find it hard to try and spend time filling my blog and keeping people entertained without obsessing over it.

I totally agree, it gives you that outlet without having to be too personal
